Cabling principles
2 Cabling principles
2.1 Stand-alone BTS cabling principle
Cable routing principles for RF Module and System Module wall and pole installations.
w
NOTICE:
t
Tip: Start the cabling from the System Module. It is easier to route the excess cable in
other modules than the System Module.
Incorrect cables and seals may not provide appropriate ingress protection. Use only
tested IP65 class outdoor cables with seals provided by Nokia. This is required for both
indoor and outdoor installations, including the outdoor cabinet.
t
Tip: RF Module and System Module's ports are covered with seal caps by default.
When connecting cables, only remove the seal caps where necessary and leave the
rest in place.
t
Tip: In vertical installations where the fixed bend of the optical cable faces up, the
optical cables can be routed in the gap between the top of the module and the casing to
meet the bending radius requirements.
Cable routing when System Module and RF Module are on separate plinths
In wall and pole installation options, the RF Module can be installed on a different plinth
than the System Module. In that case, all the cabling, including BTS internal cables,
should be routed through the lower cable entry whenever possible.

g
Note: This is a recommended installation order. The modules can be in different order,
for example the RF Module can be placed below the System Module.
Coil up the excess cables and fix them on the sides of the module casings with cable
ties.
In case of using a non-flexible optical cable, do not bend the cable beyond the minimum
radius of 50 mm (2.0 in.). Do not break the guiding.
w
DN09107822 Issue: 31
NOTICE:
Overbending optical cables damages the cables and can detach or damage the
connectors or even reduce performance. Do not bend optical cables beyond the
minimum radius of 50 mm (2.0 in.).

2.2 Cabinet cabling principle
Cable routing options in an outdoor cabinet.
In cabinet installations, base station external cabling is routed along the sides of the
cabinet. Cables are fixed to the cabinet with cable ties. See figures in this chapter for
examples on cable routing in cabinet installations.
w
NOTICE:
g
Note: When modules are installed inside a cabinet, no separate earthing (grounding) is
required. Cabinet itself needs to be accordingly grounded.
Incorrect cables and seals may not provide appropriate ingress protection. Use only
tested IP65 class outdoor cables with seals provided by Nokia. This is required for both
indoor and outdoor installations, including the outdoor cabinet.
t
Tip: For FDD, RF Module ports are covered with seal caps by default. When
connecting RF Module cables, only remove the seal caps where necessary and leave
the rest in place.
To minimise the risk of damaging the cables (for example, water, ice, dirt), the cables
should be routed in such a way that they do not lie on the cabinet floor.
The cables should first go down from the connector so that if there is condensated water,
it will not reach the connectors. This procedure should be used both for in and out door
installations. It minimizes the risk in case boot/seal is damaged or not in place.
For RF Module, fix the optical cables to the module handles in cabinet installations. Then
make a loop of the excess cable and fix it with a cable tie.

3 Cable cleaning
Benefits and necessities of optical cable cleaning and how to properly clean optical
cables.
Preparation
Optical cables ends are susceptible to dirt during transportation, storage, or handling and
as a result can stop functioning correctly. Dirty optical cables ends can have a big impact
on the service quality of Nokia products and therefore it is very important to maintain
them properly.
Nokia optical cables ends are always pre-cleaned and protected with dust caps but to
minimize any risks. It is highly recommended to clean the optical cables prior to inserting,
and especially always before reinserting them.
t
t
Tip: Keep optical cable end dust caps in place during installation and only remove
those just prior to cleaning and connecting.
Tip: It is highly recommended to prevent cable ends contacting with anything else
besides cleaning equipment before connecting. For more information, see table
Dry cleaning equipment.
Fault detection
The condition of optical cables can be determined in many ways including visually or by
analyzing the cable loss. In order to complete fiber testing, it is required to determine the
condition of the cable and clean the cable. The following tools can all be used for this
purpose:

Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the ends of fiber-optic cables.
Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cables connected to transceivers emit laser light
that can damage your eyes.
w
NOTICE: Do not bend fiber-optic cables beyond their minimum bend radius. Bending
the cables beyond their minimum bend radius can damage the cables and cause
problems that are difficult to diagnose.
Wet and dry cleaning
There are two cleaning methods:

Cable cleaning
Procedure
Inspect the cable to determine if there is dirt on the fiber end face or increased insertion
loss.
1
g
Note: The acceptable insertion loss limits are:
•
•
for Multi-mode (MM): <1.5 dB, wavelength 850 nm
for Single-mode (SM): <1.0 dB, wavelengths 1310 nm and 1550 nm.
2
If no increased insertion loss or dirt on the fiber end face is detected, the cable is clean
and can be inserted. If increased insertion loss or dirt on the fiber end is reported,
continue with step 3.
3
Clean the cable by using one of the following methods:
Sub-steps
a) When using a pen-style cleaner, fit the connector over the end of the optical
cable, press down until the cleaner clicks and then remove the connector.
b) When using a reel-based cartridge cleaning tool, take the end of the optical cable
and wipe the cable in the direction indicated on the tool.
g
Note: Do not wipe the cable in any other direction other than the one indicated
by the tool.
g
Note: Always use a fresh piece of tape. Do not use a dirty or used tape as this
damages the optical cable.
4
Check whether the cleaning has eliminated the cable loss. If it has, then the cable can be
inserted. If not, repeat steps 3 - 4 up to five times.
5
If after the fifth attempt the dry cleaning methods do not resolve the issue, either replace
the cable or continue to step 6.
6
Take the dirty cable and clean it using one of the following wet cleaning methods:
Sub-steps
a) When using a cleaning stick, wet the tip of the stick with a cleaning agent and
then apply to the optical cable by rotating the stick 6 - 8 times in the same
direction.
DN09107822 Issue: 31

Cabling Flexi Multiradio 10 BTS
b) When using wipes, apply one squirt of cleaning agent to the wipe, take the end of
the cable and gently wipe the cable from wet to dry.
g
g
Note: Never use the same stick, wipe, or surface area twice.
Note: Never apply more than one squirt of cleaning agent.
7
Dry clean the cable again, immediately after wet cleaning to make sure no residue is left
on the fiber end face. Follow step 3 to dry clean the cable.
8
Inspect the cable. If the insertion loss is still present, replace the cable.
Fault detection
If cable does not work with the first try, inspect the cable using a light source and a
power meter.

2. 13 - 26 km (depending on the RF HW version, the values might vary as follows: 10 ...
13 km or 20 ... 26 km)
3. 26 - 39 km (depending on the RF HW version, the values might vary as follows: 20 ...
26 km or 30 ... 39 km)
The RF Modules must be connected to the System Module with a fiber from the same
length range.
Note that in case of RF chaining, the optical cable length from the System Module to any
RF Module in chain must remain in the same length range. In case of RF Modules
chaining, the length range is the total optical path length between the System Module
and the last RF Module in chain.
g
Note: Note that the distance between the System Module and RF Module or RRH can
be up to 23 km.

NOTICE: Overbending optical fiber cables damages the cables and can detach or
damage the connectors or even reduce performance. Do not bend optical fibre cables
to a radius smaller than the minimum radius of 70 mm (2.76 inches) for cables with
diameter 7 mm (0.28 inches) or 50 mm (1.97 inches) for cables with diameter 5 mm
(0.20 inches).
NOTICE: The optical fiber connector is fragile. Handle it with care.
NOTICE: Optical cables are fragile. Always route the non-flexible optical cable to the
direction it is bended.
NOTICE: Optical fibers are sensitive. The presence of contaminants lowers the
mechanical strength of the optical fiber and may dampen the transmission of light in the
fibers. Clean all optical fiber cable ends before installation using an optical fibers
connector cleaning kit.
g
Note: When using two or three parallel optical fibers per RF Module, the difference in
lengths between the cables must not exceed 30 m (98.4 ft).

This integrated transmission interface is marked "EIF1" on the FSMx core front panel. If
you are using this transmission option, see Connecting RJ45 transmission cable.
2) EIF2 interface (SFP/SFP+)
This integrated transmission interface is marked "EIF2/RF/6" on the FSMx front panel.
The interface can be software-configured to either GE Ethernet interface for transport
purposes (SFP) or RP3-01/CPRI interface (SFP+). Note that it is only available for
transport if an optional transmission sub-module is not deployed. If you are using this
transmission option, see Connecting SFP transmission cable.
3) Flexi Multiradio 10 BTS optional Transmission Sub-Module
If more or other Ethernet interfaces are required then a Flexi Multiradio 10 BTS optional
Transmission Sub-Module is needed. For installation instructions, see Installing Flexi
Multiradio 10 BTS optional Transmission Sub-Module (FTIF). For cabling instructions,
see Connecting Flexi Multiradio 10 BTS optional Transmission Sub-Module (FTIF)

NOTICE: Incorrect cables and seals may not provide appropriate ingress protection.
Use only tested IP65 class outdoor cables with seals provided by Nokia. This is
required for both indoor and outdoor installations, including the outdoor cabinet.
NOTICE: Overbending damages the optical fiber cables and can also cause connectors
to detach or become damaged and lead to reduced performance. Do not bend optical
fibre cables to a radius smaller than the minimum radius of 70 mm (2.76 in.) for cables
with a diameter of 7 mm (0.28 in.) or 50 mm (1.97 in.) for cables with a diameter of 5
mm (0.20 in.).
NOTICE: Optical cables are fragile. Always route the optical cable according to the
cables' natural alignment.
NOTICE: Optical fibers are sensitive. Possible contamination lowers the mechanical
strength of the optical fiber, which dampens the transmission of light in the fibers. Clean
all optical fiber connectors before installation using an optical fibers connector cleaning
kit.
NOTICE: RF Module is required to be set into disabled state by way of Blocking RF unit
or Base Station Site prior to inserting a new or replacement SFP to RF HW.
NOTICE: After the configuration reset, it is recommended to perform manual
commissioning. Otherwise, the “Commissioning error: Invalid configuration file missing”
alarm appears in Extension System Module. A configuration reset is necessary when
extracting the Flexi Multiradio 10 System Module from an existing site and adding it as
an extension to another BTS. The configuration reset deletes the existing configuration
data and withdraws the System Module role. To clear the configuration:
1. Press and hold the reset button on the FSMF system module for at least 10
seconds.
2. Wait until the diode status changes from yellow to red and back to yellow

Principles of connecting Flexi Power Rectifier (FPRx) alarms
These instructions show how to connect the alarm cables from Flexi Power Rectifier
(FPRx) to Flexi Multiradio BTS. For full details on the installation of the FPRx, see Flexi
Power Rectifier documentation on NOLS.
Note that the FPRx delivery does not include any alarm cables. The required cables are
either supplied with the interconnecting units (Flexi System External Alarm (FSEB/FSEE)
and/or Flexi Cabinet Site Support Module (FCSA)) or must be ordered separately
depending upon the configuration.
When using Flexi Power Rectifier (FPRx) with Flexi Cabinet Site Support Module (FCSA)
in an outdoor application, there are two different cabling configurations for Flexi
Multiradio BTS which can be used depending upon the number of alarms signals
required by the user. See Connecting 3 FPRA alarms and 4 FCSA alarms and
Connecting 6 FPRA alarms and 4 FCSA alarms.
Flexi Rectifier Module (FPRB) is a modular 3U-high AC rectifier solution with output
power scalable up to 9 kW (from 2 kW to 6 kW or from 3 kW to 9 kW). It is made up of up
to three individual rectifiers operating in a parallel mode configuration. It shares the same
dimensions and supports the same mounting options as other 3U-high Flexi modules.
Rated IP65, the FPRB supports stand-alone outdoor installations (wall/pole/stack) when
front and back covers are installed.
Figure 85
Flexi Power Rectifier (FPRB)
The FPRB also includes a Power Distribution Assembly (PDA), which has a fully

14.6 Flexi Multiradio 10 BTS Power Distribution SubModule (FPFD) control panel
Flexi Multiradio 10 BTS Power Distribution Sub-Module (FPFD) LED indications and
front panel push button functionalities.
The control panel is located on the front panel of the Flexi Multiradio 10 BTS Power
Distribution Sub-Module (FPFD). There are five LEDs for the corresponding output ports,
and two push buttons for the ON/OFF functionality of the outputs.

Function of the
output

Fault caused by
-
No function (neutral):
Pushing the SET button outside the selection phase does not do anything.
Entering selection phase (neutral):
Pushing the SELECT button enters or resumes the selection phase. Starting at the
leftmost position (RF1) the LED starts blinking in blue color (blue color is not used for
any other kind of signaling). With each additional push on the SELECT button the
blinking position moves forward from the left to right position in a circular way. The
selection phase ends automatically after three seconds when no button has been
pushed within this time frame.
Changing output state:
Pushing the SET button during the selection phase toggles the selected (blinking blue)
output state. As long as the selection phase is active you can toggle the output state with
each push on the SET button. When toggling the output state to ON the selection phase
is extended to five seconds to give the user enough time to toggle to OFF again (in case
of target device malfunction).
Restrictions:
The SET push button can be re-routed to the System Module. This allows the System
Module to judge over the ON/OFF functionality via the push button. Default setup is “no
re-routing”.
Via priority controlling in FPFD it can be prohibited to alter an output state via the push
button when a higher priority “access line” has taken over the control for a specific
output. Default setup is “all access lines have the same priority level”.
Only implemented or detected outputs can be selected via the SELECT button.
