NOTE
The required length of power cables and of PGND cables is specified in the site survey report. Appropriate length of power cables and of PGND cables must be obtained and cable terminals must be crimped on site. l l By default, the colors of the power cables and PGND cables are those specified in Table 4-1. These colors must be in accordance with the customer requirements. For details about the description of the power cables, see Power Cables. For details about the description of the PGND cables, see PGND Cables.
4.2 Connections of the Power Cables and PGND Cables

This section describes the connections of the power cables and PGND cables between the BSC6900 and the PDF. It also describes the connections of the PGND cables between the adjacent cabinets. Figure 4-1 shows the connections of the power cables and PGND cables.
4-2 Huawei Proprietary and Confidential Copyright Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. Issue 04 (2011-03-07)
Figure 4-1 Connections of the power cables and PGND cables
NOTE
The PGND cables of the cabinet should be connected to the nearest ground bar. When the PDF is far away from the cabinet, for example, the PDF is not in the same equipment room as the cabinet, you should connect the PGND cable for the cabinet to the nearest ground bar co-grounded with the PDF rather than connect the PGND cable directly to the PDF. In this case, the methods of installing and routing the PGND cables are the same as those of connecting the PGND cables directly to the PDF. In practice, the PGND cables of the cabinet must be connected on the basis of the requirements of the customer.
4.3 Principles of Installing the Power Cables and PGND Cables

This section describes the principles of installing the power cables and PGND cables. When installing the power cables and PGND cables, you should follow the routing and binding principles.
Cable Routing Requirements

l l The layout of power cables and PGND cables should facilitate future capacity expansion. The power cables and PGND cables must be separated from the other cables. When the power cables and the PGND cables are laid parallel to signal cables, the spacing between them must be at least 30 mm. Ensure that the bending radius is five times longer than the diameter of the cable. In underfloor cabling mode, a surplus length of power cable must be reserved outside the cable inlet of the power distribution box on the top of the cabinet. This facilitates the installation of the terminal. In addition, the cables must be laid flat on the top of the cabinet. When connecting power cables to the terminals of the power distribution box, lay the cables straight and smoothly.
l l
Issue 04 (2011-03-07)
4-3
Cable Binding Requirements

l l l l l The power cables and PGND cables must be separated from the signal cables. The spacing between the cable ties should be 200 mm. If the underfloor cabling mode is used, the power cables and PGND cables should be routed along the middle column on the right of the cabinet front. The selection of cable ties (150 mm/300 mm) depends on the diameter and quantity of cables. The cable ties are bound in the same direction. The extra length of the cable ties are cut and the cut surfaces are smooth without sharp edges.
4.4 Installing the Power Cables and PGND Cable Between the BSC6900 and the PDF

Issue 04 (2011-03-07)
The power cables and PGND cables are installed between the cabinet and the PDF.
l l
The subracks, fan boxes, and boards are installed in the cabinet. The required tool (multimeter) is available.
Context
The cabinet uses the DC power supply. Technical Specifications of the Power Distribution Box lists the specifications for the input power of the cabinet.
CAUTION
Wear the ESD wrist strap correctly. Ensure that the ESD wrist strap is properly connected to the ESD connector on the cabinet. Before powering on a subrack, do not insert a board into or remove a board from the subrack to avoid static damage to boards.
Procedure
Step 1 Set the corresponding output switches on the PDF to OFF and set all the output switches on the power distribution box of the cabinet to OFF. Step 2 Set the multimeter to the resistance scale, and then measure the resistance at the power output terminal for the PDF and at the input and output terminals for the power distribution box of the cabinet. Ensure that there is no short-circuit either between the -48 V working power and the RTN working ground or between the -48 V working power and the PGND protection ground. Step 3 Set the corresponding output switches on the PDF to ON and all the output switches on the power distribution box of the cabinet to OFF. Then, the power distribution box enters the self-check state. (The RUN and ALM LEDs on the power distribution box are ON at the same time and the buzzer sounds.) When the self-check is complete, the power distribution box requests for registration at the SCUa board (the RUN LED on the power distribution box blinks at 2 Hz) until the registration is successful (the RUN LED blinks at 0.5 Hz). For the description about the status of LEDs on the power distribution box, see LEDs on the PAMU Board. Step 4 Set the multimeter to the voltage scale. Ensure that the PDF output voltage and input voltage of the power distribution box ranges from -40 V to -57 V. Step 5 Set the corresponding two switches on the power distribution box to ON on the basis of subrack. Step 6 Set the multimeter to the voltage scale. Use the multimeter to check whether the output power of each power distribution box ranges from -40 V to -57 V. Check whether the fan box in the subrack can be normally started and whether the power supply to the boards in the subrack is normal. l Normally, when the subrack is powered on, the STATUS LED is green on the panel of the fan box blinks. In case of exceptions, immediately turn off the switches of the power distribution box and PDF. Check whether the output voltage of the power distribution box is normal and whether the power cables are installed properly. For the description about the status of LEDs on the fan box, see Fan Box. l Normally, when the subrack is powered on, the RUN LED on the panel of the board is ON or blinks. If all the LEDs on a board are OFF, the board or the corresponding slot may be
faulty. Contact Huawei technical support engineers for further handling. For the description about the status of LEDs on the board, see LEDs on the Boards. l If the LEDs on all the boards in a subrack are OFF, immediately turn off the switches of the power distribution box and PDF. Check whether the output voltage of the power distribution box is normal and whether the power cables are installed properly. Step 7 Repeat Step 5 to Step 6 to check the power supply to all the subracks in one cabinet. Step 8 Repeat Step 1 to Step 7 to check the power supply to each cabinet. ----End
Follow-up Procedure
Record the results of power-on and checking to the corresponding table provided in 12 Hardware Installation Records. Set the corresponding output switches on the PDF to OFF and all the output switches on the power distribution box of the cabinet to OFF.

This section describes the precautions you must take when you install, remove, or replace the boards, or perform any other operation that requires bodily contact with the boards.
Precautions Before Operation

l l l l Store some materials for board installation (such as ESD boxes and bags) in the equipment room for future use. Keep the boards and other electrostatic-sensitive parts in ESD bags. Do not pack or hold the boards or parts by using plastic foam, common plastic bags, or paper bags. Ensure that the cabinet is well grounded before inserting the board into the subrack. Otherwise, the board may be severely damaged. Ensure that the wrist strap is functioning. The value of the resistance measured by the multimeter must range from 0.75 megohm to 10 megohms.
Precautions During Operation

l l Wear an ESD wrist strap or gloves and ensure that the ESD wrist strap is well grounded. Place the board on an ESD pad when replacing board hardware or chips. Use antistatic tweezers or extraction tools to replace chips. Do not touch board chips or pins with your bare hands. Discharge the static electricity of the cables and protective sleeves before connecting them to the ports. Do not touch the PCB or any other part except jumpers and DIP switches during board replacement. Place the removed boards and components on an ESD pad or other ESD materials. Do not pack or hold the boards or parts by using plastic foam, common plastic bags, or paper bags.

6.4 DIP Switches on the BSC6900 Boards

This section describes the DIP switches on the BSC6900 EIUa/PEUa boards and the PAMU/ PFCB/PFCU boards. 6.4.1 DIP Switches on the EIUa Board The EIUa board provides five DIP switches, namely, S1, S3, S4, S5, and S6. 6.4.2 DIP Switch on the PAMU Board The PAMU provides an SW1 DIP switch. 6.4.3 DIP Switches on the PEUa Board The PEUa board provides five DIP switches, namely, S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10. 6.4.4 DIP Switch on the PFCU Board The PFCU board has one DIP switch, which is named SW1 and consists of four bits. The DIP switch is used to set the address of the PFCU board. When the PFCU board is configured in a fan box of the service subrack, the address of the PFCU board is set to 1. When the PFCU board is configured in the independent fan subrack, the address of the PFCU board is set to 4. 6.4.5 Pins on the PFCB Board The PFCB board provides eight pairs of pins for jumpers. After being connected to jumpers, these pins are used to set the address and working mode of the PFCB board. The settings of these pins depend on the installation position of the PFCB board.
6.4.1 DIP Switches on the EIUa Board

The EIUa board provides five DIP switches, namely, S1, S3, S4, S5, and S6. Figure 6-2 shows the layout of the DIP switches on the EIUa board.
Figure 6-2 Layout of the DIP switches on the EIUa board

(2) Bottom plate
NOTE
l When the 75-ohm coaxial cable is used, the signal transmission uses the E1 unbalanced mode. In this case, the TX end is grounded, that is, the corresponding bit of the DIP switch is set to ON. l When the 120-ohm twisted pair cable is used, the signal transmission uses the E1(T1) balanced mode. In this case, the TX end is not grounded, that is, the corresponding bit of the DIP switch is set to OFF. l All DIP switches of the EIUa board are on the front panel of the sub-board. The front panel is faced to and combined with the bottom plate, and so the DIP switches are hidden in between.

The DIP switches are set for 75-ohm coaxial cables by default. The setting for the DIP switches on the active board must be the same as that for the DIP switches on the standby board. The RX end is not grounded either in balanced or in unbalanced mode.
6.4.2 DIP Switch on the PAMU Board

The PAMU provides an SW1 DIP switch. Figure 6-3 shows the layout of the DIP switch on the PAMU board. Figure 6-3 Layout of the DIP switch on the PAMU board
With four bits, the DIP switch SW1 is used to set the address of the PAMU board. To set the address, first remove the PAMU board and then set the SW1 as described in Table 6-3.

NOTE
In the BSC6900, the DIP switch on the PAMU board must be set as described in Table 6-3.
6.4.3 DIP Switches on the PEUa Board

The PEUa board provides five DIP switches, namely, S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10. Figure 6-4 shows the layout of the DIP switches on the PEUa board.
Figure 6-4 Layout of the DIP switches on the PEUa board
(1) Sub-board
(2) Bottom plate
Issue 04 (2011-03-07)
6-9

NOTE
l All DIP switches are on the front panel of the sub-board. The front panel is combined with the bottom plate, so the DIP switches are not exposed. l DIP switches S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10 are set from the side. As shown in Figure 6-4, there are two square holes between DIP switches, one between S2 and S4, and the other between S8 and S6. Through the two holes, you can set S2, S4, S8, and S6. DIP switch S10 is located in the right corner of the subboard, and thus you can set S10 along the side. The direction of the arrow in Figure 6-4 is to turn inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to ON, turn them inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to OFF, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to ON, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to OFF, turn them inwards. l You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to set S10. If there is any inconsistency between the physical setting of S10 on the PEUa board and the setting of S10 by command, take the setting by command as the criterion. By default, the working mode of S10 is set to E1. You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to change the working mode of S10 from E1 mode to E1 balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, or T1 mode. When you run the SET E1T1 command to set the support for balanced and unbalanced modes parameter to No and set the working mode of S10 to E1, you must also manually set the bits of S10 to set the working mode of S10 to E1 balanced mode or E1 unbalanced mode. l If signals are transmitted in E1 unbalanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 75-ohm coaxial cable and the TX end of the cable is grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to ON. If signals are transmitted in E1(T1) balanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 120-ohm twisted pair cable and the TX end of the cable is not grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to OFF.
DIP switches S2, S4, S6, and S8 on the PEUa board are used to enable or disable the grounding of 0 to 31 E1s/T1s/J1s at the TX end. DIP switch S10 is used to set the working mode to E1 balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, T1 mode, or J1 mode. Table 6-4 describes the DIP switches on the PEUa board.

6.4.4 DIP Switch on the PFCU Board

The PFCU board has one DIP switch, which is named SW1 and consists of four bits. The DIP switch is used to set the address of the PFCU board. When the PFCU board is configured in a fan box of the service subrack, the address of the PFCU board is set to 1. When the PFCU board is configured in the independent fan subrack, the address of the PFCU board is set to 4.

7.2 Principles of Installing the Signal Cables

This section describes the principles of installing the signal cables. The cables should meet the requirements for minimum bending radius, the principles of laying out cables, the principles of routing cables, and the principles of binding cables.
Principles of Installing the Signal Cables

When installing the signal cables, take the following precautions: l l l l l l l The optical cable should not be stretched roughly or stepped on, and heavy objects should not be placed on the cable to avoid damage. The optical connector not in use must be covered with a dustproof cap. If the connectors of the signal cables are made before delivery, you should pack the connectors with soft and durable materials such as a packing bag during cabling. Protect the jackets of the signal cables from being damaged during the routing. When coiling the extra length of optical cables on the fiber management tray, apply proper force to avoid damaging the optical. The actual installation positions must meet the requirements of site survey and data configuration. When installing the signal cables, you should route the extra length of the interconnection cables on both sides of the cabinet according to the requirement for the bending radius of the cables.
Issue 04 (2011-03-07)
The related operation guide is intended for only the installation method. The actual installation position of cables should meet the requirements of site survey and should be consistent with the data configuration scheme.
Minimum Bending Radius

The bending radius of the signal cable meets the requirements of all types of cables. Table 7-2 lists the bending radius of the signal cables. Table 7-2 Bending radius of the signal cables Wire BITS clock signal cable Y-shaped clock cable Ethernet cable Optical cable SFP+ high-speed cable E1/T1 cable Inter-TNUa cable EMU RS485 Communication Cable OMUa serial port cable Alarm box signal cable Bending Radius Not less than 45mm Not less than 25 mm Not less than 25 mm Not less than 40mm Not less than 25 mm Not less than 40mm Not less than 35mm Not less than 25 mm Not less than 25 mm Not less than 25 mm
Principles of Routing the Signal Cables

To facilitate maintenance and capacity expansion, follow these principles when routing cables. The layout sequence in overhead and underfloor cabling modes must be the same. l The cables can be routed either on the front side first or on the rear side first. The cables meant for the front of the cabinet must be laid only in the front side of the cabinet. Follow the same principle for the cables meant for the rear of the cabinet. When routing cables at the front side of the cabinet, ensure that the Ethernet cables and clock signal cables are separated from the inter-TNUa cables. The inter-TNUa cables should be routed to the left. The Ethernet cables and clock signal cables should be routed to the right. You should route the Ethernet cables before routing clock signal cables. For the routing sequence of other signal cables, there is no special requirement. While routing the cables at the back of the cabinet, you should route the E1/T1 cables before routing the optical cables.
Requirements of Routing the Signal Cables

The requirements for routing signal cables are as follows:
l l l
Protect the jackets of the signal cables from being damaged during the routing. Hold the connector when plugging out the signal cables to protect the signal cable from damage. When installing the signal cables, you should route the extra length of the interconnection cables on both sides of the cabinet according to the requirement for the bending radius of the cables. For combined cabinets, the extra signal cable in front of the cabinet should be routed along the cable ladder or at one side of the cabinet. It should not be placed in the gap between the combined cabinets. The signal cables must be separated from the power cables. The bending radius of the signal cable satisfies the requirements of all kinds of cables. Table 7-2 lists the bending radius of the signal cables. Extra length of the signal cable should be reserved near the connector. The signal cables must be neatly laid in the rack, according to the engineering design. If the height difference between the cable tray and the top of the cabinet exceeds 800 mm, a vertical cable ladder must be used. The signal cables and the lower part of the downward cable ladder must be bound together. The routing should be in accordance with the engineering design. The cabling is clear, proper, and smooth at the bends. The cables are laid in parallel. The signal cables layout facilitates maintenance and future expansion.
l l l l l
l l l
Requirements of Binding the Signal Cables

The requirements of binding the signal cables are as follows: l l l The signal cables and power cables must be bound separately. The spacing between cable ties must be at least 150 mm. The twine for binding the cables must be coated with wax. The signal cables must be bound at the entrance and exit of the cable trough and at the turning points, as shown in Figure 7-1. Figure 7-1 Bending and binding signal cables
l l
Issue 04 (2011-03-07)
The optical cables must be neatly bound in pairs. The cables on the cable tray must be bound neatly.
l l l
The cable ties must face the same direction and be tied with proper tightness. The cable ties must be placed at regular intervals, 200 mm for E1/T1 cables, and 150 mm for optical cables. The extra length of the cable ties must be cut and the cut surface must be smooth.
7.3 Installing the Inter-TNUa Cables

This section describes how to install the inter-TNUa cables between different subracks. When a new site is deployed, the inter-TNUa cables are already installed on the MPR cabinet or the TCR cabinet configured with two or three subracks. When the capacity of a site is expanded, the inter-TNUa cables need to be installed on site.
Prerequisite
l l l l The required inter-TNUa cables are available. The required cable ties and wax strings are available. The tools required for the installation are available. The tools are ESD gloves or ESD wrist strap, and wire cutter. The wires in the cable are intact, the jacket of the cable is undamaged, and the pins in the connector are straight.
Context
CAUTION
Wear an ESD wrist strap and connect it to the ESD connector on the cabinet before you perform the operation. For details, see Wearing an ESD Wrist Strap. For the installation positions of the inter-TNUa cables in the cabinet, see 11.3.2 Connections of Signal Cables for the MPR, 11.3.3 Connections of Signal Cables for the EPR, and 11.3.4 Connections of Signal Cables for the TCR . The inter-TNUa cable is classified into three types in length: 2.2 m, 2.7 m, and 9.7 m. The 2.2 m cable is used for the connection of the adjacent subracks in the same cabinet. The 2.7 m cable is used for the connection between subracks in the same cabinet. The 9.7 m cable is used for the connection of subracks in different cabinets.
Procedure
Step 1 Attach formal labels to identify the signal cables of the same type when the number of signal cables of the same type to be installed is more than one. Step 2 Route one end of the cable to the TNUa board (generally the TNUa board in the main subrack), and lead the other end to the distribution post in the cable trough. Estimate the length of the cable between TNUa boards (the bending radius must be at least 35 mm). Then, bind the cable and the distribution post, and route the cable along the cable trough to the left side of the cabinet. Step 3 Route the cable to the TNUa according to the requirements specified in 7.2 Principles of Installing the Signal Cables and the engineering requirements. The cabling of the inter-TNUa cables is described in Table 7-3.
Table 7-3 Cabling of the inter-TNUa cables Condition The TNUa boards to be connected are located in the same cabinet. Cabling mode Cabling within the cabinet Action Route the cable upwards or downwards along the column to the cable trough under the subrack where the TNUa board is located. Then, lead the cable along the cable trough to the TNUa board. 1. Route the cable upwards through the cable hole on top of the cabinet and to the cable tray. Then, lead the cable along the cable tray to the cable hole on top of another cabinet. 2. Route the cable downwards or upwards along the column to the cable trough under the subrack where the TNUa board is located. Then, lead the cable along the cable trough to the TNUa board.

11.3.4 Connections of Signal Cables for the TCR

The signal cables for the TCR are the active/standby 75-ohm coaxial cable, active/standby 120ohm twisted pair cable, optical cable, straight-through cable, inter-TNUa cable, Y-shaped clock cable, and monitoring signal cable for the power distribution box. For details on signal cables, see Cables. Figure 11-11 shows the connections of the signal cables for the TCR.

NOTE
l The types of interface boards, installation positions of cables, and number of cables shown in Figure 11-11 are taken as examples. The actual configurations depend on the site planning. l Among the multiple TCSs configured in the BSC6900 cabinet, one TCS is responsible for forwarding the OM signals from other TCSs, and this TCS is referred to as the main TCS. In Figure 11-11, the lowest TCS serves as the main subrack. In practice, any TCS can serve as the main subrack, and the SCUa board in the main TCS is connected to the SCUa boards in other TCSs in star topology.
