3.2 Combinations of Cabinets

The BTS3900 cabinets can be stacked or installed side by side. The side-by-side installation
mode is recommended. If the space in the equipment room is insufficient, the stack mode can
be used.
Side-by-Side Installation Mode

The principles for installing two cabinets side by side are as follows:
Issue 11 (2010-06-30)

3-7
BTS3900 WCDMA

l
By default, the primary cabinet is positioned on the left, and the secondary cabinet is
positioned on the right. If restricted by the actual situation in the equipment room, the
primary cabinet can be positioned on the right.
The BTS3900 (-48 V DC) cabinet, BTS3900 (+24 V DC) cabinet, and BTS3900 (AC)
cabinet support side-by-side installation mode.
NOTE
The primary cabinet is the cabinet that is configured with the BBU.
The secondary cabinet is the cabinet that is not configured with the BBU.
Figure 3-6, Figure 3-7, and Figure 3-8 show the side-by-side installation mode with two
cabinets.

Stack Mode
The principles for stacking two cabinets are as follows:
l
By default, the primary cabinet is stacked under the secondary cabinet.
The BTS3900 (-48 V DC) cabinets can be stacked.
The BTS3900 (+24 V DC) cabinets cannot be stacked.

3.3 Power Distribution of the Cabinet

This section describes the power distribution modes of the BTS3900.
Power Distribution of the BTS3900 (-48 V DC) Cabinet

The external power equipment supplies -48 V DC power to the DCDU-01 of the BTS3900 (-48
V DC) cabinet, and the DCDU-01 feeds power to each module in the BTS3900 cabinet. Figure
3-11 shows the power distribution principles.

Power Distribution of the BTS3900 (+24 V DC) Cabinet

The external power equipment supplies +24 V DC power to the DC/DC power equipment of the
BTS3900 (+24 V DC) cabinet. The DC/DC power equipment converts +24 V DC power into
-48 V DC power and feeds -48 V DC power to the DCDU-01. The DCDU-01 feeds power to
each module in the cabinet. Figure 3-12 shows the power distribution principles.
Figure 3-12 Power distribution of the BTS3900 (+24 V DC) cabinet
Power Distribution of the BTS3900 (AC) Cabinet

The external power equipment supplies single-phase or three-phase 220 V AC power, or duallive-line 110 V AC power to the BTS3900 (AC) cabinet. The AC/DC power equipment converts
the AC power into -48 V DC power and feeds the -48 V DC power to the DCDU-01. The
DCDU-01 feeds power to each module in the cabinet. Figure 3-13 shows the power distribution
principles.

3.4.2 External Monitoring Port

The monitoring ports are configured on the BBU, EMU, and EMUA for monitoring external
signals of the base station.
The BBU is configured with the UPEU and UEIU for monitoring. Each board has two Boolean
input ports and two RS485 input ports, and each Boolean input port receives four Boolean inputs.

When two UPEUs are configured in the BBU, the other UPEU is configured in Slot18. The pin assignments
for the wires connected to the monitoring ports on this UPEU are the same as those for the wires connected
to the monitoring ports on the UEIU.
The EMU and EMUA are used for environment monitoring indoors and outdoors respectively.
The EMU and EMUA enable the monitoring of analog values and Boolean signals with the port
for monitoring analog inputs, port for detecting the Boolean inputs, and port for controlling the
external Boolean outputs.

When the base station is deployed indoors, the EMU is configured for monitoring the analog
values and Boolean signals. For details about the monitoring ports on the EMU, see
HUAWEI QCKG1EMU User Guide.
When the base station is deployed outdoors, the EMUA is configured for monitoring the
analog values and Boolean signals. For details about the monitoring ports on the EMUA,

If backup power is required for the BBU, two UPEUs are configured instead of UPEU+UEIU.
If the BTS3900 is configured with three cabinets, a UEIU is configured for monitoring the RS485
signals. Therefore, another UEIU is not required for monitoring the dry contact alarms.
The analog values can be monitored only by the EMU.
The EMU with sensors can be configured according to site requirements.

Functions
The functions of the WRFU are as follows:
l
Implements the direct frequency conversion technique in the transmit channel. The
baseband signals are modulated to WCDMA RF signals. After being filtered and amplified
or being combined, the RF signals are transmitted through the duplex filter to the antenna
for radio transmission.
Receives UL RF signals from the antenna system and then down-converts the received
signals to IF signals. After amplification, analog-to-digital conversion, digital downconversion, matched filtering, automatic gain control (AGC), the IF signals are sent to the
BBU for further processing.
Implements power control and Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) detection
Provides reverse power detection
Provides frequency synthesis and loopback test
Generates the CPRI clock, recovers the CPRI clock from loss of synchronization, and
detects alarms

Multiplexes the RX signals and TX signals
Enables RX signals and TX signals to share one antenna channel
Filters RX signals and TX signals

The MRFU has the following functions:
l
Modulates and converts the signals to the TX band by up-converting the IF signals, filters
and amplifies the signals, and then transmits the signals to the antenna through the duplexer
Receives RF signals from the antenna and performs down-conversion, 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 Ratio (VSWR) detection
Supplies power to the TMA and controls the RET antenna
