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. (10) If two BBU3900s are configured, the second BBU3900 shall obtain power from a power cabinet outside of the DCDU-11A in the base station that the second BBU3900 installed.
(11) The power cables for the fan unit or BBU must be reconnected. For details, see the BTS3900L (Ver.C) Installation Guide.
3.2.2 Power Distribution

This section describes the power distribution mode of the BTS3900L cabinet. The external power equipment supplies -48 V DC power to the DCDU-11A of the BTS3900L cabinet, and the DCDU-11A feeds power to each module in the cabinet. Figure 3-2 shows the principles of the power distribution.

3.3.2 Monitoring Principles of the Cabinet

A monitoring board is connected to the MON port on the BBU. It collects the alarms of all components and reports the alarms to the BBU by using the RS485 serial bus. For details about the monitoring ports on the FMU, see FMU.
Two BBUs are required in an evolution from a single-mode or dual-mode scenario as shown in Figure 1 to a triple-mode scenario as shown in Figure 2 or in a new triple-mode scenario as shown in Figure 2. The BBU installed in the upper part of the cabinet is BBU0, and the BBU installed in the lower part of the cabinet is BBU1. In a triple-mode scenario, all the monitoring equipment is connected to BBU0. The monitoring principles of the triple-mode scenario are the same as the dual-mode scenario.
NOTE
The BBU 0 is main BBU, and the BBU 1 is extension BBU.
If any device in the figure is not configured at the site, neither need its cable to be installed. Figure 3-4 Monitoring system for the BTS3900L cabinet (triple-mode scenario)
NOTE
For details about how to monitor the EMU, please refer to 3.3.3 Customized Alarm Inputs.
3.3.3 Customized Alarm Inputs

Customized alarms must be reported to the BBU. The 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 the customized alarms, see the related initial configuration guide.
Monitoring Board Configuration

The configurations of the monitoring boards in the BTS3900L depend on the number of customized alarms, as listed in Table 3-5. Table 3-5 Configuration of monitoring boards in the BTS3900L Number of Dry Contact Alarm Inputs None 1 to 16 17 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 The analog values can be monitored only by the EMU. l The EMU with sensors can be configured according to site requirements.
Customized Alarms Collected by the UPEU or UEIU

Each UPEU or UEIU in the BBU supports eight Boolean signal inputs. The UPEU+UEIU or a maximum of two UPEUs can be configured for a BBU to receive 16 Boolean signal inputs. This method can be used for the configuration of less than 16 customized alarm inputs. The method to collect customized alarms by the UPEU or UEIU is shown in Figure 3-5.

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.
Indicator
The UPEU has one indicator, which indicates the operating status of the UPEU. Table 4-37 describes the indicator. Table 4-37 Indicator on the UPEU panel Silkscreen RUN Color Green Status Steady on Steady off Description The board is functional. There is no power supply, or the board is faulty.

Receives RF signals from the antenna system, down-converts the signals to IF signals, and performs amplification, analog-to-digital conversion, digital down-conversion, matched filtering, and digital automatic gain control (DAGC), and then transmits the signals to the BBU for further processing. Performs power control. Provides Voltage Standing Wave Ration (VSWR) detection. Supplies power to the TMA and controls the RET antenna. Controls Digital Predistortion (DPD) based on feedback signals. Generates the CPRI clock, recovers the CPRI clock from loss of synchronization, and detects alarms.

In route backup mode, the FE ports of one type (either optical or electrical ports) on the WMPT and LMPT are interconnected, and the FE ports of the other type (either optical or electrical ports) on the two boards are connected to the transmission equipment. In a UMTS+LTE base station, the route backup transmission mode has the following characteristics: l l l l IP transmission is applied. The WMPT and LMPT are connected to the transport network through the primary channel. The WMPT 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 UMTS standard transport network. Therefore, when the secondary channel is used, the Quality of Service (QoS) of only high-priority data flows can be guaranteed.
In a UMTS+LTE base station, the following limitations on the route backup transmission mode apply: l l l The route backup function is not applicable when the base station uses the IP over E1 transmission. The route backup transmission mode is not applicable on the ports on the UTRPs for UMTS and LTE transmission. It is applicable only on the ports on the WMPT and LMPT panels. In route backup transmission mode, the FE ports of one type on the WMPT and LMPT panels are interconnected. The FE ports of the other type on the two boards are connected to the transport network.

Hybrid Transmission
In hybrid transmission mode, the UMTS E1/T1 port and LTE FE/GE port serve as shared ports to connect to the transmission equipment. The E1/T1 port is used to transmit the services with high QoS requirements, such as CS services; and the FE/GE port is used to transmit the services with low QoS requirements, such as PS services. The UMTS E1/T1 port and the LTE FE/GE port are used for data transmission in a UMTS+LTE base station in hybrid transmission mode. When the UMTS FE/GE port and the LTE FE/GE port are used for data transmission, hybrid transmission is not applicable.
