Addressing Requirements
for Equipment Room
ZXWR RNC should be installed indoors. To ensure ZXWR RNC running stably for a long time, locate ZXWR RNC in the equipment
room according to the telecommunication network planning and
communication technical requirements, as well as the hydrology,
geological, traffic. The followings are detailed requirements:
Do not place the equipment in the room with high temperature,

thick dust, harmful atmosphere, low air pressure, flammable
and explosive objects.
Do not place the equipment in the room with shakes.
Do not place the equipment in the room with large noises.
Do not place the equipment in the room near the transformer

substation.
Construction Requirements
for Equipment Room
Layout
Usually, the equipment room falls into the main equipment room
and the auxiliary equipment room. The main equipment room is
to locate the body device of ZXWR RNC, while the auxiliary equipment room is to locate the auxiliary devices, such as, O&M device,
uninterrupted power supply, and battery set.
The followings are detailed requirements:
To ensure the running environment of the equipment is independent, easy to maintain and manage, the main equipment
room and the auxiliary equipment room should be placed separately. However, they should be placed near the equipment,
to save the cables for the next installation.
Place the O&M console in the auxiliary equipment room and

ensure that the O&M personnel can face the equipment in the
main equipment room.
Usually, the main equipment room and the assistant room are
separated with glass walls.
Do not place the main device and the primary power supply in
the same room.
Size
The equipment room should be large enough to support the main
body and assistant devices of ZXWR RNC, loading materials and
other devices. Usually, keep 1.5 m before the ZXWR RNC cabinet
for the maintenance person to open the door.
The layout of the equipment room is as shown in Figure 1.
Chapter 2 Environment Requirements
FIGURE 1 LAYOUT OF EQUIPMENT ROOM
Height
The height of the equipment room is related to the cabling mode
selected during the system design.
The system cabling has 2 modes: Upward cabling and downward
cabling:
Upward cabling: All connection cables are wiring on the top of

the cabinet.
Downward cabling: All connection cables are led out from the
cabinet bottom.
The equipment room height refers to the net height from the beam
or ventilation pipe to the floor surface. Usually, for the upward
cabling mode, the equipment room height should not be less than
3 m, while for the downward cabling mode, the equipment room
height should not be less than 2.7 m.
Floors
The floors should be laid in the equipment room according to the
following requirements:
The bearing weight capacity of the floors in the main equipment room should be over 560 kg/m2 and the bearing weight
capacity of the auxiliary equipment room should be over 300
kg/m2.
The pavement and the support of the floors must be smooth

and firm. The error for per m2should be less than 2 mm.
Coat the floor with the anti-static floors. Do perform the antistatic grounding. The grounding method is to connect a wellconductive lead with the grounding device of the equipment
room via 1 M current-limiting resistance.
The grounded system resistance should comply with YD/T754-95

Telecommunication Equipment Room Static protection Regulations
(issued in June, 1995).
The floors are better to be 300 mm ~ 330 mm high. Avoid

flaring designs.
The paint should be non-glisten and harmless.
When laying the floors, take measures against moisture, moth

and rats.
If the equipment room adopts the downward cabling mode,

reserve the hidden pipes, grounding trough, and holes under
the floors. Their quantity, location and sizes should meet the
requirements for the layout of different cables and the technical
design. Take moisture-proof measures for all troughs. Keep the
edge smooth. All the illumination and power cables should be laid
hidden.
Windows/Doors/Walls
Door: The effective height is over 2 m and the width over 1 m.
Window: Conditions permitting, all doors and windows use

double-deck glass, sealed with dustproof rubber bars. Clear
the dusts regularly.
Wall: Use the paints or wallpapers against the absorption, fire

and moisture. Or, use the non-luminous paint.
Ceiling: No leaking and no dusting.
Temperature/Humidity
Requirements for Equipment
Room
The temperature/humidity requirements for the working environment of ZXWR RNC are listed in Table 3.
TABLE 3 TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY REQUIREMENTS
Name
Long-term Working
Condition
Short-term
Working Condition
Temperature
0C ~ 40C
-5C ~ 45C
Humidity
20% ~ 90%
5% ~ 95%
Note:
The temperature/humidity is measured when there are no protection boards in front of or behind the cabinet, 1.5 m above the
floors, 0.4 m before the equipment.
Short-term working duration means no more than 48 hours continuously, and no more than 15 days accumulated in the whole
year.
To guarantee the working environment and the temperature/humidity can meet the above requirements, the main equipment
room should be equipped with the air-conditioner that is constantly
ON, and the auxiliary equipment rooms should also be equipped
with the air-conditioner that runs seasonally as required (based
on the climate and financial conditions of the operator). Generally speaking, large equipment rooms should be equipped with the
air-conditioners with humidity regulation, while small equipment
rooms with general floor-standing or window air-conditioners.
Validation
The capacity of the air-conditioner validating system includes
the heat of the main equipment and the heat of the external
devices (such as, the heat brought by the sunlight entering
the room through the windows and walls, the heat brought by
the maintenance personnel coming into/out of or staying in the
room).
The air-conditioner should be double backed up to ensure the
validating system running securely and reliably. Especially in
the main equipment room, the capacity of each system should
be larger than at least half of the total air-conditioner capacity.
Sealing
Do not destroy the sealing of the equipment room because
of installing the air-conditioner. The property of the fresh air
entering the equipment room should be over 5%.
In addition, keep the air clean. Not only the density and the
diameter of the dust, but also the salt, acid and sulfur in the
air, should comply with CF014-95 Telecommunication Equipment Room Condition (Temporary). These harmful gases may
speed up the corruption of the metal and the aging of some
parts. Prevent harmful gases, such as, SO2, H2S from entering
the equipment room, avoiding harming the health of the missionary.
Illumination Requirements
for Equipment Room
It is better to install incandescent lamps or fluorescent lamps that
are embedded into the ceiling at proper positions between cabinets
(or install emergency illuminating devices), for the convenience of
equipment installation and maintenance. The average illumination
is 300 ~ 450 Lx.
Lamp light or sun light should not irradiate the equipment for a
long period, to prevent circuit boards and components from aging
and deforming due to high temperature. Therefore, it is better to
use the colored glass and non-tint transparent curtain for windows.
Power Supply Requirements

for Equipment Room
AC/DC/UPS of the equipment room should meet the following requirements:
1. DC
i. The nominal voltage of power supply for the equipment
room is -48V, with an allowed fluctuation range of 57 VDC
~ -40 VDC.
ii. Threshold values measured at DC distributor output terminal, of the noise level indices that 48 VDC voltages involves, are:
300 Hz ~ 3400 Hz (phone band) noise (weighted noise)

voltage 2 mV

Grounding Requirements for

Equipment Room
Most faults of the equipment result from improper grounding. Especially in the case of lightning, improper grounding will cause
even worse damage. Therefore, it is essential to check the equipment room grounding and the grounding conditions that the equipment room provides to the equipment.
Grounding System Compositions

A complete grounding system is as shown in Figure 2.
FIGURE 2 COMPLETE GROUNDING SYSTEM
The grounding system consists of the grounding body, grounding

in-lead cable, grounding cable and grounding busbar.
Grounding body: The conductor buried underneath the ground

and in contact with the earth.
Grounding busbar: The public grounding busbar that leads

grounding cables out of the equipment room and the power
supply room.
Grounding in-lead cable: The connection cable between the

grounding busbar and the grounding body.
Grounding cable: The connection cable between the communication device and the grounding busbar.
Grounding System Type

Common grounding system includes the lightening protection
ground, working ground and protection ground.
10
Lightning protection ground: The lightning protection system

of the construction facilities, consisting of the lightning arrester, the down grounding conductor, and connectors that
connect with the grounding system.
Working ground: The common potential reference formed by

the connected component loop inside the equipment.
Protection ground: The ground that is led from the protection

end or the outer enclosure of the equipment. It is to prevent
the metal outer enclosure of the equipment from bearing elec-
tricity caused by power supply faults or other reasons of the

equipment.
Grounding System Design

The equipment room is better to adopt joint grounding mode.
Joint grounding is to connect the working ground, protection
ground of the equipment, and the lightning ground of the building
to form one set of grounding body. It can be several ground grids
(for example, equipment room ground grid, power room ground
grid, and iron tower ground grid).
Joint grounding can prevent ground level breakdown effect.
Ground level breakdown effect: If the lightning strikes a building
with electronic communication equipment, the electromagnetic
induction will increase the level of the electronic communication
equipment. If the grounding body of the equipment is separate
from the grounding body of the building, the level of the equipment is zero, a huge potential occurs between the circuits and
components of the equipment and the ground. In this case, the
components and the circuits are very likely to break down.
In the case of joint grounding mode, if the lightning strikes a building with electronic communication equipment, the electromagnetic
induction will increase both the level of the circuits of the electronic communication equipment and the ground level. In this
case, there will not be a sharp potential between the components
and the circuits of the equipment and the ground. They are not
likely to be damaged.
Grounding System Requirements

The resistance for the equipment room in joint grounding mode
should be below 1 .
ZXWR RNC ground includes -48 V ground, working ground, and
protection ground.
-48 V ground (-48 V GND) and working ground (GVD) are led
out from the power distribution box, connecting with GND and
-48 VGND of all subsystems via the busbar.
Protection ground (GNDP) connects with the cabinet via the

busbar, connecting with DC grounding stake via the cabinet.
The cabinet provides up grounding mode and down grounding

mode.
The resistance of cabinet bonding connection is 0.1 ~ 0.3 .

The grounding resistance of the equipment room is less than
1 .
The system does not provide analog grounding. The analog

grounding on the board joins the digital ground at the power
supply.
11
Fire Protection
Room
The main building of the equipment room must meet GBJ16-87
Building Design Fire Protection Specifications or the corresponding
requirements of native standards. Equip the corresponding fire
equipment and reserve sufficient fire passages. Put notice boards
bearing Key Fire Protection Site at proper locations.
Do not store such hazardous articles as flammable or explosive articles in the main or auxiliary equipment room. Stick No Smoking
orNo Smoke and No Fire signs where necessary. The fire control
water should be enough to guarantee 2 hours supply. Lead the
water pipes across the equipment rooms and do not set the fire
hydrant indoors.
Install the alarming devices for smog and high temperature and
inspect frequently to guarantee their good performance.
Lightening Protection
Room
When the height of the main building or its auxiliary facilities
(such as the chimney, antenna and water tower) exceeds 15 m,
take measures compliant to the lightning-proof requirements for
Class-II civil buildings and structures. In the lightning protection
design, take measures against direct-strike lightning and the
lightning current incursion.
In addition, take measures against side strike when the equipment room is in a high-rise building. For example, connect the
outer metal windows of the building with the lightning protection
down lead; install horizontal lightning-protection metal straps on
the outer surface of the wall at certain intervals along the height
of the building.
Take the following lightning protection measures for the main
building of the equipment room:
12
Install lightning protection nets or lightning protection straps

on the parts of the building that are subject to lightning.
Equip protruding objects, such as chimney, antenna and water

tower, with overhead lightning conductor or arrestor.
The cross section area of the lead wire of the lightning protection device is not less than 200 mm2, with a distance not
greater than 30 m. The impulse grounding resistance of the
lightning protection grounding device for the building is not

greater than 10 .
Ground outdoor cables and metal pipes before they enter the
building. Fix the lightning arrestors where outdoor overhead
cables enter the equipment room.
Employ the metal components of the building itself (such as

reinforcing steel bars inside walls or poles) as the down leads
for lightning protection grounding. Connect these down leads
electrically to equalize the inside electric potential.
Install proper lightning protection devices for the power supply

system along the mains input line to the equipment room.
Radiation Protection
Room
The equipment room should be far away from high-power radio
transmitting station, radar transmitting station, and high-frequency large-current equipment. The actual electric field intensity
radiated to the equipment room should be below 300 mV/m, and
the intensity of magnetic field should be less than 11 Gs.
Generally, take the following anti-radiation measures:
Shield the equipment room or shield against the definite electromagnetic radiation interference source.
Install a shielding wall between the principal equipment of the

system and the equipment containing a transmitter with highfrequency radiation, and using separate power supply lines.
The power line and the conductive line in the pipe should be
grounded reasonably and the shield layer of all the cables
should be grounded.
Intertwine the signal lines and return lines so that the conductive voltage caused by the line radiation interference offsets
itself.
The power cable and the signal line had better be routed separately.
Strictly separate AC grounding cable and DC grounding cable

in the equipment room.

Anti-static Requirements for

Equipment Room
Note:
Before operating on the device sensitive to the static, read related
precautions carefully and stick the anti-static labels on both front
sides of rack.
Electrostatic will damage the components in a repeated way. The
damage will be accumulated, which causes intermittent performance problem or performance reduction. Electrostatic will also
cause software failure, malfunction or misoperation of the electric
switches and control circuits.
Electrostatic induction comes from external electric fields like highvoltage line and lightning, and from internal systems like interior
environment, floorboard, and system structure. O&M personnel
can also cause ESD from the body by touching the equipment.
The following measures can effectively eliminate the harm caused
by electrostatic discharge:
Ground the equipment properly Ground the equipment at several points with copper foils (apply and press copper foils between the concrete floor and the semi-conductive floor, and
connect the copper foils with a ground cable).
Lay anti-static floors and ground them. The resistance of the

anti-static raised floor should comply with Technical Requirements on Raised Floor Boards in Computer Room. If the raised
floor is unavailable, pave the conductive floorboards (the volume resistance should be 1.0 107 W ~ 1.0 1010 W). The
static-conductive or raised floor must be grounded, connected
to the grounding device via the current-limiting resistor and
cables. The value of the current-limiting resistance is 1 MW.
O&M personnel should wear ESD wrist strap for operation, and
connect ESD strap with the electric static discharge hole on the
equipment cabinet.
Dustproof Requirements for

Equipment Room
In the equipment room, it is necessary to limit the density of the
dust, the diameter greater than 5 m and the density less than
3 104 particles/m3. Make sure the dust particles not electricconductive, magnetic-inductive or corrosive. Take the following
dust-proof measures:
14
Seal the doors and windows. Install the double-layered glasses

on the outer window and seal. Add dust-proof draught excluder
strips on the doors. Preferably, the skylight can seal the equipment room, equipped with a dust filter.
Keep the uniforms and slippers clean and change them at a

proper frequency.
Place the operating equipment in the outer room, to avoid

opening/closing of the door of the equipment room too often.
Keep the relative humidity in the equipment room at a proper

high level as allowed, to mitigate dust adherence caused by
electrostatic.
Coat the walls and ceilings of the equipment room with paint
or wallpaper, preferably with lusterless paint.
Quakeproof Requirements
for Equipment Room
Take quakeproof measures on the equipment (especially when the
equipment room has a raised floor) according to the designed intensity of the local quake. The quakeproof facilities should be
available in the equipment room to make the equipment room
strong enough against a Richter scale-7 earthquake.

34
FIGURE 10 MARKING TEMPLATE OF BASE INSTALLATION MODE
Tip:
Measure the positions of all hole repeatedly after marking all
hole lines, to avoid any error and ensure the correct size.
2. Drill holes on the cement floor.
Remove the marking template and drill on the marking position
on the floor. The specification of holes is 14 and the depth is
90 mm.
When drilling holes with a percussion drill (or an electric hammer), make sure that the drill bit is vertical to the ground. Hold
the drillstock firmly with both hands and press it downward vertically. Be stable to avoid damaging the ground, enlarging the
aperture and slanting the hole.
If the ground surface is too smooth to position the drill bit, first
cut a concave at the hole position through punching, to help
position the drill bit.
After drilling, use a vacuum cleaner to clean up the dust, and
measure the distance among holes. Reposition and re-drill
holes if the error is too big.
35
Tip:
Marking and drilling are the base during the hardware installation. The inaccuracy will cause great inconvenience to the
subsequent work and affect the project quality. Therefore, ensuring the quality is the prerequisite for the quality of the whole
project.
END OF STEPS
Positioning Base for Base Installation

36
1. Before the installation, use a vacuum cleaner to clean up

the dust inside and outside the holes. Measure the spacing between holes, place the adjustable base, and check
whether the base matches the holes. For holes with a large
deviation, it is necessary to reposition and re-drill the holes
before installing the expansion bolts.
2. Take off the washer and the nut of the expansion bolt and
place the expansion rod and expansion bush vertically into
the hole.
3. Use a rubber hammer to strike the expansion bolt until the
expansion bush is fully into the ground.
2. Adjust the base height.
According to the floor height and the adjustable height of the
cabinet feet, adjust all the bases to the pre-determined height.
Meanwhile, use a torque wrench to fasten the height-locking
bolt to 45 Nm. When fastening the base height and locking the bolts, follow the principle of Middle first, then sides.
The height difference between the two bases for each cabinet
should be not more than 1.5 mm after adjustment.
For a rough ground surface, it is better use the washers provided by ZTE to raise the partial height between the base and
the ground. For the washer, two types of thickness are available: 1 mm and 2 mm, as shown in Figure 14.

Board installation preparations
Board installation methods
Board Layout
In ZXWR RNC, the specific board layout is related to the system
performance.
For the detailed configuration principles and board layout, refer to
ZXWR RNC (V3.07.310) Radio Network Controller Hardware Description.
Board Installation Principles

Comply with the following principles when installing the boards:
59
If a blank panel is placed on the slot where the board is required

to install, remove the blank panel first before installing the
board. It is better to install the board as soon as removing one
blank panel.
The board must be installed on the appointed slot, that is, the
relation of the panel name and slot should be consistent with
the plan.
When taking or installing the board, do not touch the print

circuit and apparatus other than the jumper and DIP switches.
Board Installation
Preparations
Make the following preparations before installing the board:
1. Wear the antistatic wrists, as shown in Figure 45. The wrists
should be grounded to antistatic wrist grounding jack inside
ZXWR RNC cabinet.
Tip:
If the cabinet is not connected with the protection ground, connect PGND on the cabinet top to the indoor grounding busbar
first.

2. Check the sanitation of the shelf. Keep the shelf clean and
clear.
3. Check whether there are bending pins, missing pins and broken
pins on the backplane. If there are bending pins, replace it at
once, or correct it with the sharp nose pliers for emergency. If
there are missing or broken pins, replace the backplane.
60
Chapter 6 Board Installation
4. Check whether the jacks on the backplane and the boards are
distorted. If the distortion is micro, adjust it with the sharp
nose pliers. If the distortion is major, replace the backplane
and the board.
5. Fasten the captive fasteners on the upper/lower extractor with
No 2 straight or cross screwdriver whose diameter is 6 mm.
Tip:
If the model of the screwdriver to use is not defined, try from
large diameter to small diameter in order until the suitable model

this section introduces how to install protection grounding of DC
distribution cabinet, ZXWR RNC grounding, and grounding with
other equipment.
Protection Grounding of DC Distribution Cabinet

Directly connect the protection grounding cable of DC distribution
cabinet to the copper busbar of the equipment room.
ZXWR RNC Grounding

This cable does not have the direction. Just connect End A and End
B to the cabinet grounding cable interface and the cabinet door.
FIGURE 63 STRUCTURE OF GROUNDING CABLE
Cabinet door grounding cable

The cabinet door grounding cable connects the cabinet
front/rear door with the rack ground.
Intra-cabinet protection ground tandem cable

The intra-cabinet protection ground tandem cable connects the
tandem protection ground with the rack ground.
This cable does not have the direction. Just connect End A and
End B with the tandem PE and the cabinet-top tandem ground
bolt PE.
Shelf grounding copper busbar cable
83
The shelf grounding copper busbar cable connects the plug-in

box to the cabinet grounding copper busbar, ensuring the reliable bond connection of the plug-in box and the rack.
This cable does not have the direction. Just connect End A
and End B with the plug-in box PE interface and the grounding
copper busbar.
Other Equipment Ground

Sometimes, ZXWR RNC is required to connect with the protection
ground of other equipment.
1. Connecting ZXWR RNC ground with the cable distribution frame
ground
According to the design, the equipment room should bear a
well ground grid and one/several grounding copper busbar(s).
No matter whether ZXWR RNC connects with same or different
grounding busbar, it can be regarded as the same grounding
point.
The connection between ZXWR RNC and the cable distribution
frame ground depends on different grounding conditions in the
equipment room.
i. Connecting with several grounding copper busbars
It is better to ground nearby. Connect both ZXWR RNC
and the cable distribution frame to the nearest grounding
copper busbar, to reduce the impact of the grounding cable,
as shown in Figure 64.

the equipment at hand.
Cabinet Grounding Cable Installation

Check
The methods to check the grounding cable installation are same
as that of cabinet power cable.
Intra-cabinet Line Installation

Tip:
Usually, internal lines are ready before delivery. This section is
just the reference for the equipment check and maintenance.
Cabling Requirements for

Intra-cabinet Line
The intra-cabinet line falls into the internal cable and internal fiber.
The following will introduce their installation and cabling requirements respectively.
Cabling Requirements for Internal Cable

1. Lay the internal cables according to the system cabling rules
specified in related documents. The cable should be laid neatly
and attractively. All cables should be bundled and laid in a
consistent direction, with even interval between cable ties.
2. Identify the two ends of the cable clearly with labels. Do not
incorrectly insert them or miss any cable.
3. Lock the cable connectors tightly with the locking device.
4. Separately bind the signal cables and the strong-current cables
to avoid interference to the signals.
5. The bending should be smooth and round. The minimum bending radius is no less than 10 times of the cable outer diameter.
6. Arrange the surplus cables and bind them inside the cabinet
on the side cabling beam of the cabinet. Avoid damages to the
cables during the transportation.
7. When laying the cables along the vertical cabling beam, bind
one cable tie at the spacing of 100 mm.
8. Cut off the surplus cable tie, without sharp edge.
86
Cabling Requirements for Internal Fiber

Different from cables, fibers are often connected to the front panel
of the plug-in box or the equipment. Therefore, the fiber cabling is
particular. Cable the fibers outputted from different panels along
the panel respectively. The fiber cabling should not affect the insertion and extraction of adjacent boards. Besides, there are some
particular requirements:
1. Cable the fibers in pairs. Do not bend then in right angle. If it
is obliged to bend, the bending radius mustnt be less than 30
mm.
2. It is better to bind the fibers fixed on the vertical trough every
300 mm. Bundle with fiber adhesive tapes at each distribution
point.
3. When cabling fibers in the whole equipment, make the fibers
be supported. Do not lay cables on the fibers.
4. Do not contact the fibers with the sharp edges of the cabinet.
Prevent the fibers from being damaged. The actual gap between the cable and mechanical parts must be greater than 10
mm. If there is no guarantee, add the jacket.
5. Add the jacket to the fibers that is unnecessary for the time
being for the protection. Wire, bundle and fix them.
6. If there are few fibers and when cabling the fibers with signal cables, protect the fiber with wiring pipe. Use the bellows where they leave the cabinet, to prevent fibers from being crushed.
Intra-cabinet Line Installations

Note:
Usually, internal lines are ready before delivery. This section is
just the reference for the equipment check and maintenance.
Clock Cable
Intra-cabinet cables related to the clock fall into three kinds: 8
K line clock cable, system clock cable, and the clock cables distributed to each slot and each shelf.
8 K line clock cable

APBE extracts 8 K line clock from CN and sends the clock signals
to CLKG.
8 K line clock cable distributes and connects clocks from APBE
to CLKG.
Both ends of the cable are 8P8C straight pressure welding
shielded connectors. The cable is 4-core single round cable.
Figure 65 shows the structure of line 8 K clock cable.

End B is connected to 8KIN1 or 8KIN2 on RCKG1/RCKG2.
System clock cable

System clock cable connects the clock signals (8 K, 16 M, and
PP2S) from CLKG to UIMU/UIMC, distributing the system clock.
To reserve the space for the rear board connector and cabling,
each system clock cable implements clock distribution for three
resource shelves and six UIMC/UIMU boards.
At CLKG end, there is a DB44 (pin) connector, while at UIMC/U
end, there is a DB9 (pin) connector. The cable contains six
8-core single round cable. Figure 66 shows the structure of
system clock cable.
FIGURE 68 STRUCTURE OF SYSTEM CLOCK CABLE
Insertion direction:
Connect End A of the cable to CLKOUT on RCKG1/RCKG2
panel.
End B of the cable falls into three groups: B1 ~ B2, B3 ~
B4, B5 ~ B6. Each group connects with a shelf and its two
terminals connect with active/standby UIMC or the rear board
of UIMU respectively. In the case of connecting with UIMC,
the two terminals are connected to CLK_IN on RUIM2/RUIM3
88
panel. In the case of connecting with UIMU, the two terminals

are connected to CLK_IN on RUIM1 panel.
Clock cable to slots and shelves

UIMU/UIMC distributes the clock signals to all slots on the local
shelf via the backplane. Therefore, users do not need to install.
Interconnection Cable on Control Plane

It fulfills the tandem between the resource shelf and the switching
shelf inside the system, and the tandem from the switching plane
of the control shelf to CHUB.
End A of the cable is DB44 (pin) connector, while end B of the
cable is 8P8C straight pressure welding shielded connectors. The
cable is FTP super category-5 shielded data cable. The structure
of the interconnection cable on the control plane is as shown in
Figure 69.
FIGURE 69 STRUCTURE OF TANDEM CABLE ON CONTROL PLANE
Connect End A of the cable to FE1-8, FE9-16, FE17-24, FE2532, FE33-40, or FE41-46on RCHB1 or RCHB2 panel.
There are four groups from End B1 to End B8: B2n-1 and B2n (n =
1...4) belong to the same group. Each group can be connected to a
shelf, providing two physical connections. Taking End B1 and End
B2 as example, in the case of connecting to the resource shelf,
connect End B1 to FE-C1/2on RFE1UIM1 panel and End B2 to
FE-C1/2 on RUIM1 panel. In the case of connecting to control
shelf or switching shelf on other cabinet, connect End B1 to on
RUIM2 panel and End B2 to FE2 on RUIM3 panel.
Interconnection Fiber on User Plane

It connects the resource shelf and the switching shelf in ZXWR
RNC. Both ends of the fiber are LC/PC connectors, without directions.
Each optical interface on GLI and GUIM contains one pari of optical
fibers, including Rx and Tx, as shown in Figure 70.
89
FIGURE 70 FIBER CONNECTION AT BOTH ENDS OF OPTICAL

INTERFACE
One end of the fiber is connected to TX on UIMU panel and the
other end to RX on GLI panel. As for the other fiber, one end is
connected to RX on UIMU panel and the other end to TX on GLI
panel. Fibers must appear in pairs. TX and RX of UIMU and GLI
must be within the same fiber module.
Note:
There are eight optical interfaces on GLI. M/S in pairs. From up
down, 1 and 2 are one pair, 3 and 4 are one pair, and so one.
Since GUIM is not backup up, use the optical interfaces on GLI by
interval. Otherwise, it may go error.
PD485 Cable and Fan Monitoring Cable

It implements the 485 connection from the ROMB to the power distribution subrack on the local cabinet, monitors the state of PWRD,
connect the power distribution subrack with the fan subrack, and
monitors the operation of the fans.
On PWRD, there is one pin of 25 feet, which serves as X8, the
short-circuited connection jumper of the 485 signal. When there
are multiple racks in the ZXWR RNC system, set the working mode
of the 485 bus on the PWRD board according to the rack position.
90
When the PWRD board locates at the end of the 485 bus, connect end-to-end with the resistance: By default, connect Pins
1 and 2, 9 and 10 in the short circuit mode, as shown in Figure
71.
FIGURE 71 JUMPERS
When the PWRD board locates in the middle of the 485 bus,
transmit the 485 signals to the output port of the 485 cable:
Connect Pins 3 and 4, 7 and 8 in the short circuit mode.
Note:
If the settings of the DIP switches and jumpers are changed, reset
the board by pressing the Rst button so that the settings can take
effect.
Both ends of the 485 cable are the 8P8C straight cable pressed
plugs and the 485 cable adopts the FTP hyper category5 shielded
data cable. the structure of the 485 cable is as shown in Figure
72.
FIGURE 72 STRUCTURE OF PD485 CABLE
For the 485 connection from the OMP to the power distribution
subrack on the local cabinet, connect End A to the PD485 on
RMPB and End B to the RS485 on the back of the power distribution subrack (you will find two RS485 ports here and use
the upper one).
For the connection from the power distribution subrack to the

fan subrack, connect End A to the FANBOXn (n=1,2,3,4) on
the back of the power distribution subrack and End B to the
RJ45 on the left of the fan subrack back.

Feeder System
GPS antenna feeder system contains two projects.
Feeder direct connection
Indoor forwarding
Direct Connection of Feeder

The structure of the feeder direct connection project is as shown
in Figure 80.
101
FIGURE 80 STRUCTURE OF FEEDER DIRECT CONNECTION PROJECT
As shown in Figure 80, the feeder direct connection project includes GPS antenna, or feeder, GPS feeder grounding kit,
and GPS lightening arrester/power splitter.
Indoor Forwarding
The structure of the indoor forwarding project is as shown in Figure

PROJECT
GPS Antenna Feeder

System Installation
This section describes the preparations for GPS antenna feeder
system, the making of the feeder connector, the installation of the
antenna, grounding kit, and lightening arrester.
Preparations for GPS Antenna

Feeder System Installation
1. Installation persons
The project supervisor is responsible for the construction of
the antenna feeder system and the installation persons are
responsible for the specific installation.
Before the installation, check the installation persons for their
qualifications of working at heights, check the installation environment, installation measures, installation tools, prepare and
check the feeders, for the smooth process of the project.
The project supervisor should be familiar with the materials,
tools, and operation methods used in the feeder project. He
is charge of the installation person cooperation. According to
104
the principle of Safety First, the supervisor should arrange the

suitable person for suitable post, especially the work on the
tower. The supervisor should fill in the true engineering data.
The installation persons, especially the persons who work at
heights, like tower, should not be afraid of height, should be in
good health, and should have the qualifications of working at
heights. They must follow the requirements of using the safety
tools, have purchased the personal safety insurance, and must
not drink.
2. Installation environment check
Lightening protection and grounding

The lightening arrester, the lightening protection grounding stake, and the outdoor lightening protection grounding cable should be installed by the network operator. The
project supervisor should check whether the outdoor lightening protection grounding cable is in position and whether
its sectional area is over 50 mm2.
Pole and support

The network operator should install the antenna support
and pole according to the engineering design. The fastness
and windproof of the support and pole should comply with
the requirements of the design.
Feeder layout
The project supervisor should negotiate and determine the
specific route for the feeder layout with the project principal
from the operator party.
The outdoor wiring rack and the drilling on the walls or roofs
for the feeders to enter the room should be implemented
by the network operator.
3. Safety measures check
Emphasize on the safety precautions to the engineering

persons.
The outdoor feeder installation should be implemented on
fine day without strong wind.
Set up the obvious marks on the construction site, to remind the persons unrelated to the project, especially the
children, to stay away from the construction site. All tools
that may cause human injury or death by falling down from
the tower, such as, the tools and metal components that are
not used for the time being, should be kept in the canvas
bags. The canvas bags should not be opened unless the
tools are required to be taken out.
Note:
The persons who work on the tower must wear the safety belts
and those work under the tower should wear the safety helmet. Do not climb on the tower with loose clothes and slippery
shoes.
4. Installation tool preparations
105
Measurement tools: Compass, multimeter, angle meter,

tape measure
Suspending tools: Pulley, rope to pull GPS feeder
Special tools: Special tools for making GPS feeder connector
Common tools: Millimeter scale ruler, electrical knife,
wrench, file, brush
Safety protection tools: Safety belt (for the operation
persons on the tower to step out of the platform), safety
helmet, safety rope, thick work clothes, canvas tool bag,
gloves, multi-purpose socket
Making of Feeder
For GPS antenna feeder system installation, three types of GPS
feeder can be used for different length, including , , and 7/8.
Tip:
In the case of less than 25 m long, use feeder.
In the case of 25 m to 40 m long, use feeder.
In the case of over 40 m long, use 7/8 feeder.
This section takes and feeder as example to introduce the

making methods for the feeder. For the installation of feeder connector of other specifications or from other manufacturers, refer
to the installation guide.
Note:
and feeder shielded copper bellows are thin, easy to break.
Do not step on the feeder on the site. Do not operate savagely.
Making Feeder
Prerequisites
106
The peel-off requirements during the making of feeder N-mode

connector are as shown in Figure 85.
FIGURE 85 PEEL-OFF REQUIREMENT FOR MAKING FEEDER

N-MODE CONNECTOR
Note:
mm indicates the length, min 14.5 mm and max 15.5
mm.
Steps
1. Straighten the feeder at the connector end by 50 mm. Use the

electrical knife to cut and peel the feeder shell 20 mm away
from one end, as shown in Figure 86.
FIGURE 86 CUTTING AND PEELING FEEDER SKIN
107
2. Use the electrical knife to cut the feeder outer conductor on

the wave peak, as shown in Figure 87. The position is about
14.5 mm away from the feeder shell cut and should locate on
the wave peak. If the both requirements cannot be met, cut
the feeder shell again after the measurement.
FIGURE 87 POSITION TO CUT FEEDER OUTER CONDUCTOR
Unit: mm
Figure 88 shows how to cut the outer conductor.

FIGURE 88 METHOD TO CUT FEEDER OUTER CONDUCTOR

3. Use the file to file the inner conductor slightly until it meets the
requirements of 0.3 45. That is, the top is filed even and
the edge is filed to scope. The degree of the scope and the
inner conductor is 45. The length of the inner conductor that
the scope corresponds to is about 0.3 mm, as shown in Figure
89. The processed inner conductor should not have any burrs,
otherwise, it will influence the GPS signal receiving quality.

Check for Cabinet

Installation Techniques
1. The cabinet layout should meet the requirements of the engineering drawings.
i. The cabling troughs between the cabinets should be
straight, with an error of less than 5 mm.
ii. The neighboring cabinets in the same row should contact
each other, with the gap less than 3 mm.
iii. The fronts of the cabinets in the same row should form a
uniform vertical plane, without obvious unevenness.
iv. The top surfaces of the cabinets of the same type should
be in the same level plan, with an error less than 3 mm.
v. Reserve at least 1.5 m before or behind each cabinet, for
the convenience of opening the door and maintenance.
vi. In the case of multiple cabinet rows, the first row should
face opposite to the O&M console.
vii.Lay the two rows of cabinets in the same direction, with
the interval less than 1.2 m.
viii.Reserve at least 1 m between the front/rear/left/right sides
of the cabinet row from the wall (1.2 m for the operation
side).
2. The cabinets must be installed vertically. After the installation, neither the horizontal deviation nor the vertical deviation
should exceed 3 mm.
3. Prevent all components on the cabinet from falling off or being
damaged. No paints peel off or are scratched. Otherwise,
repaint the damaged parts. In addition, all the labels must
139
be complete and legible. Fasten all screw caps. The exposed

length and height of the same type of nuts should be identical.
4. The cabinet installation should be reinforced for anti-seismic
purpose. If necessary, use anchor bolts to fix the cabinets to
the ground.
5. The mounted components of the PCB should be in good contact
and are easy to plug/unplug. The surface where the slots are
inserted with PCBs should remain flat.
Check for Cable Connection

and Layout
Check for Power Cable Installation
1. To connect the power cables or grounding cables to the connection terminals, use the pliers to shape the cables for cabling. The cabling should be flat and straight and the bindings
are orderly. During the cabling process, the cable connected
to the connection terminal farther from the cabling end should
be deployed at the outer side, and the cable connected to the
connection terminal nearer the cabling end should be deployed
at the inner side.
2. For intra-rack cabling or cabling inside the cabling troughs or
ditches, they should be bound separately and cannot be mixed
with other cables. The power cables and grounding cables
should pass though the fixing frame s at the both sides of the
cabinets, bound at the inner edges of the fixing frame outsides.
The cable ties should be located on the external side of the fixing frame.
3. The contact surface of the power cable lug should closely fit
the cabinet terminal plate smoothly and tightly. The power
leading-in method should be consistent with the wring method.
That is, in the case of upward cabling, the power cable should
be led in and connected at the cabinet top; and in the case
of downward cabling, the power cable should be led in and
connected at the cabinet bottom. If the cabinet cannot satisfy
this, change the cabinet cable connection method.
4. Intermediate connector or welding point is not allowed for cable
extension.
Check for Intra-cabinet Cable

Installation
1. Each cable is connected to the right position specified on its
label. The cabling is smooth, without any crossing. The cables
are bound neatly with cable ties.
2. The cabling directions are clear. The power cables, bus cables
and signal cables are arranged separately. The cables in the
140
Chapter 10 Check after Hardware Installation
same direction are tidied and bound together. Try not to make
them cross. The cable ties are spaced evenly.
3. The both ends of the cables are labeled clearly. The connection
places are secure and in good contact. The cable bending positions are not sharp, so that the cables are not over stretched
at the root and connectors.
4. The cables to the upper half part of the backplanes at the back
of the layers should be routed in the upper cabling trough. The
cables to the lower half part of the backplanes at the back of
the layers should be routed in the lower cabling trough.
5. The non-shielded network cables should be separated from the
power cables. The network cables should not be bound too
tight and bent too sharp.
Check for Inter-cabinet Cable

Installation
1. The cables should be laid between the cabinets according to the
design and construction requirements, orderly and rationally.
2. Both ends of the cables must be labeled clearly.
3. The connector places are secure and in good contact.
4. The cable bending positions are not sharp, so that the cables
are not tensioned at the root and connectors.
5. The cable ties should be evenly distributed and are not too tight
or too loose.
6. All connectors of the network cables should comply with the
same standard.
Check for Outdoor Cable Installation

Cabling racks are required for cabling outdoor cables. All the
cables should be bound with the cabling racks securely. When the
power cables and signal cables are routed parallel, they must not
be bound together. Enough space is necessary. Water-proof and
anti-sunburn measures are required. The cable through-holes
should be sealed.
Check for Accessories

Installation
Check for Alarm Box Installation
Pay attention to the following items when checking the alarm box:
141
The alarm box should be installed in an outstanding location,

so that the alarms can be seen or heard easily.
The alarm box should be installed at a proper height for the

convenience of operations on it.
The power cables and network cables connecting the alarm box
are laid in the cabling trough without cable head exposed.
The alarm box must be installed securely. The multiple alarm

boxes installed in parallel should be clearly labeled, indicating
which device it belongs to.
Check for Sensor Installation

Pay attention to the following items when checking the sensors:
The infrared sensor should be installed at a proper position so

that it can detect the key entrances of the equipment room.
The temperature/humidity sensors should be installed at a

proper position near the cabinet, less than 1 m away from the
cabinet.
The smoke sensor should be installed in the ceiling above the

cabinet.
Check for Other Device Installation
142
Equipment labels are complete, correct and legible.
The boards should be complete and installed in the correct positions.
Selector switches and control switches of the equipment are in

the specified initial positions.
Working ground, protecting grounds and lightning protection

grounds of the cabinet equipment are grounded all right, the
grounding resistance meets the technical requirements. Fuses
meet the rated nominal requirements. The backplane pins are
not bent or shorted. The positive and negative poles of the
power are not shorted.

Cabling Techniques
Cabling Techniques of Power Cable
& Grounding Cable
1. The wiring of the power cable and the grounding cable should
comply with the design and the on-site requirements.
2. The diameters of the power cable and the grounding cable
should comply with the installation requirements.
3. -48 VDC cable is in blue, GND cable is in black, and PGND cable
is in yellow-green or yellow.
4. VAC cable, VDC cable, the grounding cable, and the signal cable should be laid separately. Keep a distance of 100 mm ~
200 mm. When routing the signal cable, VAC cable, and the
feeder, keep a distance of 100 mm ~ 200 mm.
5. The power cable and the grounding cable should use a whole
section of multi-strand copper lead. Joints are not allowed and
the insulation layer should be kept well. Cut the redundant
parts, without circling or repeatedly bending the cable.
6. When installing equipment provided with active/standby power
supply module inputs, such as, server rack, connect with the
two different channels of power supply reliably.
7. Fix the power cable and the grounding cable with copper lug.
8. Use the copper lug in accordance with the cable diameter and
screw diameter. Do not cut the core to meet the small-size
copper lug or cut the copper lug to meet the large-size cable
diameter.
9. Press the copper lug hard so that the core cable wont shake
inside the terminal.
10. Connect the indoor grounding cable bus directly to the indoor
grounding busbar. A special and reliable path is installed on the
outdoor grounding copper busbar, leading to the underground
grounding net. The diameter of the grounding bus cable must
be over 50 mm2.
11. The grounding busbar must be insulated with the walls and the
diameter of the grounding cable must be as short as possible.
149
12. Add the thermal shrinkage barrel or wind at least 2 layers of

insulated adhesive tapes where the connection terminals are
pressed. The naked cable and the copper lug cannot be exposed.
13. The color of the insulated adhesive tapes or the thermal shrinkage barrel should be same as that of the power cable. That is,
-48 VDC cable is with blue adhesive tape, GND cable is with
black adhesive tape, and PGND cable is with yellow adhesive
tape.
14. The batter set should be connected reliably. Take the insulation
measures at the grounding pole.
15. The protection grounding cable (up and down) of the rack door
should be connected reliably, no missing, loosen, or falling
parts.
16. The grounding cable of the rack and the distribution frame are
installed completely. Do not change the installation positions
at will.
17. 17. The user equipment room is equipped with the working ground and the protection ground and if the equipment
is equipped with external working ground and the protection
ground, do not connect them on the equipment in a short
mode. Ground them with two grounding cables to the grounding busbar separately.
18. 18. When there are not enough press positions for the grounding busbar, two terminals are required on one bolt, installed
in crossover or back-to-back mode. If the overlap is obliged,
bend the lugs 45 or 90. The larger copper lug should be
installed inboard and the smaller one outboard.
Cabling Techniques of Pigtail

1. Add the protection tube where the pigtail leaves the fiber distribution box, where the pigtail is laid out of the rack, on the
rack, and inside the pigtail slot.
2. Prolong the pigtail until the end of the rack and or the pigtail
slot where the pigtail protection tube enters the rack or the
pigtail slot. Do not put heavy objects on the protection tube.
3. When optical cable distributes the fiber via the fiber distribution
box, the pigtail protection tube head should be within 0.5 m
away from the fiber distribution box.
4. Do not fix the ties too tightly when fixing the pigtail. The pigtail
can move freely inside the tie loop. Do not lay other cables on
the pigtail. The bending radius of the pigtail should be 80
mm.
5. Reserve cables behind the DDF and ODF terminal boards orderly, with same radian and length. The length should be
enough to turn over the terminal boards during the debugging.
6. Cut the pigtail tube neatly, without burrs. Cover the tube connection with insulated adhesive tapes, to avoid cutting the pigtail.
7. Place the over-long pigtails inside the pigtail box orderly or
circle it to fix.
8. The optical connectors without the pigtails should be protected
with the protection tube.
150
Appendix B Cable Binding
Cabling Techniques of Line

1. The cabling and the route should comply with the design and
on-site requirements.
2. The insulation cover of the lines should be kept well, without
exposed core lines and without ties during the line.
3. Bind the lines on the wiring rack and do not place randomly.
4. When the bunched line turns over, make ties at the both sides
of the corner. Avoid breaking the core when bending it with
large force.
5. The plugs should be connected correctly, no missing and error
connection.
6. In the case of upward wiring, place the line directly on the
upper wiring rack. Do not place it close to the cabinet-top heat
dissipation board and keep a distance over 100 mm. In the
case of download wiring, the highest place to overlap on the
ground should be less than of the floor height, to avoid the
effect on the radiation and heat dissipation.
7. Lay the line along the both sides inside the cabinet in correct
order. That is, the lines laid far should be bound far away from
the connection place, and the lines laid near should be bound
near the connection place. The expansion lines and the current
lines do not follow this requirement.
8. The external lines should be kept 1 m away from the cabinet,
without crossing, winding and twisting.
9. Different kinds of lines are laid reasonably. AC power line, signal line, and pigtail should be bound and laid in type. The
external AC power line and the signal line should keep a distance of 100 mm ~ 200 mm, without overlap and misplace.
10. Bind the lines neatly and nicely. The ties should face the same
direction, loose. Cut all remaining ties, level and no burrs. Do
not mix the black and white straps. Usually, white straps are
used indoors and black stripes are used outdoors.
11. Ground the shielded layer of the lines.
12. When inserted into the backplane, all core lines of the multistrand trunk line should wire in the same radian.
13. Do not bend the line in 360 in the wiring chute.
14. When cabling out of the rack, the tie distance should be 3 ~
4 times of the line cluster diameters. The max tie distance
on the horizontal wiring rack should be less than twice of the
space between transoms on horizontal wiring rack. Bind on
each transom of the vertical wiring rack.
15. Bind the line entering the cabinet on each wiring tray vertical
to the backplane.
16. Space between ties of the line on the horizontal wiring rack
is: Bind after coming on to the horizontal wiring rack and the
horizontal biding space is less than 200 mm.
17. Line inside the rack should not be suspending.
18. The remaining lines/connectors or those for expansion should
be kept inside the wiring slot.
19. The bending radius should meet the requirements.
20. Use the straps of the corresponding types. Do not use more
than 2 straps when binding in series.
21. Forbid any loose ties, loose solder joints, open solder points,
error solder joints, and mixed line when welding the line. Keep
the cord line close with the terminals. There are no burrs and
humps on the welding points. Do not burn the insulation layer
of the core line. The exposed copper should be 2 mm.
151
22. The line section to be cut should not hurt the core line.
23. Cover suitable tube on the line section to be cut or wind with
insulated adhesive tape. The color should be same as the line.
24. Keep the length of the cut line head, tube, or winded adhesive
tape same, with the offset less than 5 mm.
25. If the outdoor lines are not used, take measures of lightening
protection, waterproof, and sunblock. If the power line passes
the outdoor, use protection tubes, such as, PVC.
26. Keep the line clean in the appearance, without any construction
marks and the insulation layer is not damaged.
Binding Techniques
1. The cables should be bound clean, clear, and nice. They should
be grouped in type. If there are too many E1 cables, classify
them in type, bind with the clips, and wire them in the wiring
district along the both sides of the cabinet upward or downward.
2. When using the wraps to bind the cables, use different specifications as required. Avoid binding with 2 or more than 2
straps, which may reduce the strength.
3. Cut the remaining parts of root, without leaving any burrs.
The space between ties should be 3 ~ 4 times of the cable
diameter. The ties are spaced evenly and when bending the
bunched cable, use large radius, to avoid breaking the inner
core. Figure 131 shows how to bind the cables.

Label Regulations
All labels should comply with the following requirements:
Use stickers of ZTE Corporation.
The rack line and list label contents must comply with the engineering design requirements. All labels on ZTE equipment in
the equipment room should be orderly, same, full, and without
repetition.
Do not paste labels or mark on the boards. If it is obliged,

mark or paste orderly.
All labels should face the same direction. The side indicating
the cable direction should face above or facing the O&M plane,
for the convenience of reorganization.
Labels should be pasted at the both ends of all cables (power

cable, grounding cable, transmission cable, jumper).
All labels should be arranged nicely and orderly, in same direction.
153
Label Type
According to the cable, labels fall into feeder label, power cable
label, Ethernet cable label, signal cable label, and fiber label.
Label Making
The label contents can be filled in two modes: Printed with the
printer and written with oil pens by hand. It is better to print with
the laser printer, for the efficiency and the beauty.
Printed by Printer
Requirements for Label Print Template
The label print must use the print template. The template should
be provided separately. IF required, consult ZTE local office.
The template is made in Microsoft Excel. Follow the following requirements.
According to the location information of on-site cable installation,
directly modify the contents on the template. Do not change any
original specification, such, as, centered, direction, and font. Usually, the character size does not need to change, and Zoom function is required only when the contents are more than located. The
prerequisites are to ensure the print contents clear and readable.
Printed with the printer

The laser printer is obliged and the type is free. Before printing
the labels, set the pages and print for test. The steps are:
First, place a piece of paper blank both sides on the whole label
paper to print. Compare whether the page settings meet the
requirements. Confirm that the settings of the printer properties are correct, such as, Paper size, Direction, etc.
If the location is correct, directly print with the label paper. If
incorrect, adjust the difference to set the pages and print for
test until the location is correct.
Set the page: File Page setup Margins. Tick Left for Gutter
Position. Select 0 for both header and footer. Then, select the
value for Top, Bottom, Left, and Right.
These settings are only required when printing for the first
time. Save the page setup for the future use.
There are three requirements for the printed label:
154
All the contents to print should cover the label and no

should be printed on the bottom label paper.
Appendix C ZTE Engineering Label Specifications
The contents of each space should be centered and the

contents in a single line to print should not exceed the pane.
If the first item is too much and spaces are allowed to combine for print, adjust the contents location to avoid exceeding the pane.
No matter which model of the printer is used, put the paper

into it piece by piece. Do not let the printer send the paper
automatically, to avoid the block (the label paper is different
form the common paper, consisting of two layers and being
printed and cut). Place the paper correctly according to the
printer model, to ensure the contents printed correctly.
Written by hand
Oil pen: A black oil pen (excluding the ballpoint pen) is sent
with the labels, to make the characters written clearly, nicely
and lasting for a long time.
In special cases, it is allowed but not suggested to use black
ballpoint pen. Compared with the oil pen, the ballpoint pen has
worse writing effect and easy to pollute the ballpoint oil on the
label paper, making the label dirty and causing the characters
illegible.
Font: For the convenience and beauty, the character written
by hand should be as close as standard font template (Song
Ti), as shown in Table 18.
TABLE 18 STANDARD FONT TEMPLATE
0
The size of the characters can be flexible as the quantity of the

numbers and letters. If Chinese characters are required, they
should be in suitable size, clear, legible, orderly, and nice.
Precautions
Keep the labels clean when filling in, printing, and pasting the
labels.
All labels are waterproof and moisture-proof, so in any cases,

ink-jet printers and pens are not allowed to use.
Labels should be pasted nicely and orderly. The new labels are
in flag shape and the mixed pasting position and direction will
greatly influence the product appearance.
The height and direction of the ID label on power cable should

be same.
155
Pasting Methods
Fill in or print the label contents on the whole label paper, tear it
off, and paste on the cable.
Confirm the location to paste the labels. In special cases, take
special measures. For example, the label location should be away
where the cable bends or where the cable installation may be influenced.

Structure of Ethernet Cable

Both ends of the cable crimp RJ45 connectors and the structure of
the Ethernet cable is as shown in Figure 154.
FIGURE 154 STRUCTURE OF CABLE CRIMP RJ45 CONNECTOR
By the connection relations at both ends, the Ethernet cable falls

into straight-through cable and cross-over cable.
1. As for straight-through cable RJ45, the connection is basically
end-to-end corresponding. The detailed connections are as
shown in Table 38.

2. As for cross-over cable RJ45, the connection is inter-modulation corresponding of the two pairs of the twisted pair at both
ends. The detailed connections are as shown in Table 39.

Usage of Ethernet Cable

1. Selection of Ethernet cable
Select suitable twisted pairs according to the maximum working frequency in the cable application environment:
For 10/1000 Mbps Ethernet, select Category 5 shielded cable (Cat 5)

For 1000 Mbps Ethernet, select super category 5 shielded
cable (Cat 5E)
For any Ethernet cable, the line pair No. is one-one corresponding to the line colors:
The colors of the first line pair are white/blue-blue; the

second line pair, white/orange-orange; the third line pair,
white/green-green; and the fourth line pair, white/brownbrown.
2. Selection of Ethernet cable Connectors
180
Appendix E Ethernet Cable Making
The choice of connectors (RJ45) should be based on the types

of the twisted pairs, that is, the electrical performance indices
of the connectors must be higher than or equal to those of the
twisted pairs.
Making of Ethernet Cable

The Ethernet cables are made according to the following methods
and steps:
1. Remove the cable sheath from the cable head 20 mm or longer
to expose the four pairs of cores.
2. Position the cables in order: 1 and 2, 3 and 6, 4 and 5, 7 and
8, as shown in Figure 155.
FIGURE 155 PEELING ETHERNET CABLE
To avoid the cable damage by bending in the connector, the

cores should be arranged side by side for at least 8 mm in the
tube to form a flat part. Behind the flat part, the cross part is
in ellipse shape.
3. Untwist the insulated cores, arrange them parallel in correct
order. Core 6 crosses cores 4 and 5. All the cores in the cable
sheath should be twisted.
4. Trim the cores (the end sections should be flat without sharp
edge). The trimmed cores are 14 mm long from the sheath.
The cores at least 10 mm 1 mm long from the end should not
be crossed. Core 6 should be over cores 4 and 5 at the location
within 4 mm away from the sheath, as shown in Figure 156.
FIGURE 156 PINOUT SEQUENCE OF ETHERNET CABLE
5. Insert the cores into the RJ45 connector, and the copper conductor can be seen in the head of the RJ45 connector. The
flat part of the tube should be extended from the rear of the
181
connector till the initial tension disappears, as shown in Figure

157.
FIGURE 157 INSERTING ETHERNET CABLE INTO RJ45
CONNECTOR
6. Crimp the connector with the special crimping pliers. To avoid

crimped RJ-45 connector improperly, or prevent the high
spring pins from damaging the RJ-45 information module
socket, the FCC standard stipulates that the crimp depth of
the RJ-45 connector spring pins is within 5.89 mm ~ 6.15
mm, as shown in Figure 158.
FIGURE 158 CRIMPING ETHERNET CABLE
Test of Ethernet Cable

Firstly, check whether the connection relations are correct according to the connection table, whether any core is shorted to adjacent core or shielding layer, then measure the spring pin crimping
depth in the RJ45 connector to see whether they suffice. If not,
rework the Ethernet cables and check again.
