NOTE
(1) If both high-power RFUs and low-power RFUs exist in the same base station, the power configuration for high-power RFUs will apply for the base station. (2) If possible, it is suggested to configure the base station with the power configuration for maximum high-power RFUs so as to satisfy all scenarios. If the power configuration has to be in accordance with actual scenarios, the circuit breaker and power cables need to be upgraded in case of base station extension. (3) The power configuration applicable for the scenarios with higher power consumption is also applicable for the scenarios with lower power consumption. (4) The circuit breakers for high load capability are applicable to those for low load capability. The sequence of load capability for circuit breakers is: 1 x 160A > 2 x 80A > 2 x 63A > 1 x 100A > 1 x 80A > 1 x 63A. (5) The power consumption of inner transmission is ignored for the circuit breakers of indoor macro base station. (6) High-power RFUs include: LRFUe, WRFUd, and MRFUd. (7) Low-power RFUs include: DRFU, GRFU, WRFU, MRFU, CRFU, LRFU. and MRFU V3. (8) If two external power inputs are supplied, the following requirements must be met: l l l l The two power inputs must be supplied by the same power cabinet. The circuit breakers used for the two power inputs have the same model and specifications. The power cables for the two power inputs must have the same cross-sectional area and length. When powering on the base station, turn on the two circuit breakers of power input before turning on the circuit breakers for all the RFUs. When powering off the base station, turn off the circuit breakers for all the RFUs before turning off the two circuit breakers of power input.
(9) One DCDU-11A can supply a maximum of three power inputs for two BBUs. The cabinet can be configured with a maximum of two BBUs, one with power consumption of 650 W and the other with power consumption of 360 W. If an additional DCDU-11A is configured, the cabinet can be configured with two BBUs both with power consumption of 650 W.

3.4.3 Customized Alarm Inputs

When customer equipment generates an alarm, the alarm must be reported to the BBU. Customized alarms are reported to the BBU by any of the following methods: l l The alarms are collected by the UPEU or UEIU in the BBU. The alarms are collected by the EMU.
For details about the configuration of customized alarms, see the related initial configuration guide.
Monitoring Board Configuration

The configuration of the monitoring boards in the BTS3900 depends on the number of customized alarm inputs, as listed in Table 3-8. Table 3-8 Configuration of monitoring boards in the BTS3900 Cabinet Type -48 V DC cabinet or AC cabinet Number of Dry Contact Alarm Inputs 1 to 8 1 to 16 1 to 32 Monitoring Board UPEU UPEU+UEIU UPEU+UEIU+EMU
NOTE
l If backup power is required for the BBU, two UPEUs are configured instead of UPEU+UEIU. l If three cabinets are configured for the BTS3900, only one UEIU is required to monitor both RS485 and dry contact alarms. l Analog values can be monitored only by the EMU. l The EMU with sensors can be configured based on site requirements.
Customized Alarms Collected by the UPEU or UEIU

Each UPEU or UEIU in the BBU supports eight Boolean alarm inputs. A maximum of two UPEUs or UPEU+UEIU can be configured for the BBU to receive 16 Boolean alarm inputs. This method can be used for the configuration of fewer than 16 customized alarm inputs. The method of collecting customized alarms by using the UPEU or UEIU is shown in Figure 3-13.

UPEUa+UPEUc
NOTE
After the UPEUc is replaced by the UPEUa, the base station power consumption data monitored by the network management system will change. The power consumption data does not only depend on the output power but also on the data collection method. The UPEUc and UPEUa use different methods for power consumption data collection. Therefore, the decrease in the power consumption shown in the network management system after the UPEUc is replaced by the UPEUa does not necessarily reflect the actual decrease of power consumption.

Route Backup Mode with IP Common Transmission

In a GSM+UMTS base station, the route backup mode with IP common transmission has the following characteristics: l l l l IP transmission is applied. The GTMU and WMPT are connected to the BSC and RNC respectively using the active channel. The GTMU and the WMPT are interconnected using FE ports on their panels. If the active channel is faulty, the standby channel takes over. After the active channel is restored, the route is switched back to the active one. The bandwidth required by UMTS services is larger than the processing capability of the GSM standard transport network. Therefore, when the standby channel is used, the Quality of Service (QoS) of only high-priority data flows can be guaranteed.
In a GSM+UMTS base station, the route backup mode with IP common transmission has the following limitations: l l l The route backup function is not applicable when the base station uses the IP over E1 common transmission. The route backup mode is not applicable to the ports on the UTRPs for GSM or UMTS transmission. It is applicable only to the ports on the GTMU and WMPT panels. In route backup mode, the FE ports of one type on the GTMU and WMPT panels are interconnected. The FE ports of the other type on the two boards are connected to the BSC and the RNC.
Figure 5-22 shows the transmission cable connections for a GSM+UMTS base station in route backup mode with IP common transmission when the FE optical ports on the GTMU and WMPT are interconnected and the FE electrical ports on the two boards are connected to the BSC and RNC.

Transmission Cable Connections in the GSM+LTE Base Station in CoTransmission Mode

A GSM+LTE base station implements IP over E1 and IP over FE/GE co-transmission based on the interconnection between the FE ports (optical or electrical type) on the GTMU and LMPT panels. Based on the co-transmission, route backup can be implemented. That is, four FE ports on the GTMU and LMPT panels are used. Of the four FE ports, two FE ports of one type are used for interconnection, and the FE ports of the other type are connected to the transport network.

In a GSM+LTE base station, the route backup transmission mode has the following characteristics: l l l l IP transmission is applied. The GTMU and LMPT are connected to the transport network through the primary channel. The GTMU and the LMPT are interconnected through FE ports on their panels. If the primary channel is faulty, the secondary channel takes over. After the primary channel is restored, the route is switched back to the primary one. The bandwidth required by LTE services is larger than the processing capability of the GSM standard transport network. Therefore, when the secondary channel is used, the Quality of Service (QoS) of only high-priority data flows can be guaranteed.
