1.5 Radiation
Electromagnetic Field Exposure

CAUTION
High power radio-frequency signals are harmful to human body. Before installing or maintaining an antenna on a steel tower or mast with a large number of transmitter antennas, the operator should coordinate with all parties to ensure that the transmitter antennas are shut down. The base transceiver station (BTS) has RF radiation (radiation hazard). Suggestions for the installation and operation of BTSs are given in the following section. Operators are also required to comply with the related local regulations on erecting BTSs.
l

The antenna should be located in an area that is inaccessible to the public where the RF radiation exceeds the stipulated value.

l

BBU3900 User Guide

If the areas where RF radiation exceeds the stipulated value are accessible to workers, ensure that workers know where these areas are. They can shut down the transmitters before entering these areas. Such areas may not exist; but if they exist, the areas must be within a range of less than 10 m around the antennas. Each forbidden zone should be indicated by a physical barrier and striking sign to warn the public or workers.

Laser

CAUTION
When handling optical fibers, do not stand close to, or look into the optical fiber outlet with unaided eyes. Laser transceivers or transmitters are used in the optical transmission system and associated test tools. Because the laser that is transmitted through the optical fiber produces a small beam of light, it has a very high power density and is invisible to human eyes. If a beam of light enters the eye, the retina may be damaged. Normally, staring into the end of an unterminated optical fiber or broken optical fiber with the unaided eyes from a distance of more than 150 mm [5.91 in.] will not cause eye injury. Eyes may, however, be damaged if an optical tool such as a microscope, magnifying glass or eye loupe is used to stare into the bare optical fiber end. Read the following guidelines to prevent laser radiation:
l l l l

Only the trained and authorized personnel can perform the operation. Wear a pair of eye-protective glasses when you are handling lasers or optical fibers. Ensure that the optical source is switched off before disconnecting optical fiber connectors. Never look into the end of an exposed optical fiber or an open connector if you cannot ensure that the optical source is switched off. To ensure that the optical source is switched off, use an optical power meter. Before opening the front door of an optical transmission system, ensure that you are not exposed to laser radiation. Never use an optical tool such as a microscope, a magnifying glass, or an eye loupe to look into the optical fiber connector or end.

l l

Read the following instructions before handling optical fibers:


l l

Only the trained personnel can cut and splice optical fibers. Before cutting or splicing an optical fiber, ensure that the optical fiber is disconnected from the optical source. After disconnecting the optical fiber, use protecting caps to protect all the optical connectors.

If such cables are routed overhead and led into the room, surge protection for the connectors of the AC power cables are affected. The PGND cables are buried in the ground or routed indoors. The PGND cables cannot be routed overhead before they are led into the equipment room.

Cabling Specifications for E1/T1 Cables


l

The optical cables are routed in compliance with the engineering design and general cabling specifications. The E1/T1 cables cannot be routed overhead outdoors. If the E1/T1 cables are routed outdoors, coat the E1/T1 cables with PVC jackets and route them underground based on the site conditions. If the E1/T1 cables routed outdoors are longer than 5 m, a surge protection box is required. The proper cable surpluses are reserved when the E1/T1 cables are curved. The idle wires of the E1/T1 cables are grounded properly in the equipment room.

Cabling Specifications for Optical Cables


l

The optical cables are routed in compliance with the engineering design and general cabling specifications. Reserve proper cable surpluses where the optical cables are curved. Do not stretch, step, or place heavy objects on the optical cables. Keep the cables away from sharp objects to avoid damage. The optical cable that is curved or pressed or the optical connector which is damaged cannot be used. Extra optical cables are coiled on the specific device such as the fiber coiler. Coil extra optical cables properly. Do not bend the cables forcibly to avoid damaging the cables. Use protection tubes to coat the bare fibers. The idle connectors of the optical cables are covered with dustproof caps. If one end of the optical cable is connected to an optical device, do not look directly at the end face of the optical connector. Otherwise, you may damage your eyes. Fill soft materials such as fireproof cottons in the optical cable inlets at the top of the cabinet to protect the optical cables. You need to check whether the optical connectors are clean before installation. If the optical connectors are dirty, clean them by using the dustfree cloth or fiber cleaner.

Context
Optical modules are installed in ports CPRI0 through CPRI2 on the WBBP. Optical modules are hot swappable. It takes about five minutes to replace an optical module. The time covers the activities of disconnecting the optical cable, removing the faulty optical module, inserting a new optical module, and connecting the optical cable to the new optical module, and recovery of the CPRI links.

CAUTION
l

Take proper ESD protection measures, for example, wear an ESD wrist strap or a pair of ESD gloves, to prevent electrostatic hazard to the board, module, or electrical parts. Do not look directly at the optical module after removing the connector of the optical cable from the optical module.

Procedure
Step 1 Press the latch on the connector of the optical cable. Then, pull the connector out of the faulty optical module. Step 2 Turn the ring on the faulty optical module outwards. Then, hold the ring and take the faulty optical module out of the port. Remove the optical module from the BBU. Step 3 Install a new optical module in the BBU. Step 4 Remove the dustproof caps from the optical module and from the connector on the optical cable. Connect the optical cable to the optical module. Step 5 On the LMT, check whether the CPRI links are recovered by viewing the color of the WBBPa icon. If... The WBBPa icon is green, The WBBPa icon is of another color, Then... The CPRI links are recovered and the optical module is replaced successfully. The CPRI links are not recovered. Check whether the optical module and the optical cable are securely connected to the WBBPa.
