similar to or higher than those described in this document, if allowed by Huawei engineers.
2.1 Overview of Outdoor Cabinets

The APM30H allows for installing an IDU and a wireless base station at the same time.
2.2 Allocation of Installation Space in the Cabinet
Different types of cabinets provide different space for installing IDUs.
The APM30H/TMC11H needs to provide a suitable power system to ensure proper operation
of IDUs.
If the APM30H/TMC11H meets the surge protection and grounding requirements of base
stations, it also meets the corresponding requirements of IDUs.
When the base station and IDU need to be interconnected through E1 cables in the APM30H/
TMC11H, the APM30H/TMC11H requires a DDF inside.
2.6 Requirements for the Ambient Environment of an Outdoor Cabinet
If the ambient environment of an outdoor cabinet meets the requirements for running a base
station, it also meets the requirements for an IDU.

NOTE
When installing an IDU in an outdoor cabinet, adhere to the following surge protection and grounding
requirements:
l
The IDU is connected to a PGND cable and the ground bar on the cabinet.
The service cable need not be grounded.
The IF cables are grounded at a position 0.5 m to 1.0 m away from the outdoor cabinet.

When the base station and IDU need to be interconnected through E1 cables in the APM30H/
TMC11H, the APM30H/TMC11H requires a DDF inside.
Two types of DDFs can be installed in the APM30H/TMC11H, namely, surge-protective DDF
and ordinary DDF. For interconnection between the base station and the IDU in the APM30H/
TMC11H, cables are routed only inner the APM30H/TMC11H and therefore an ordinary DDF
is preferred.
The installed DDF needs to meet the following requirements:
l
The DDF complies with the corresponding China and international standards.
The DDF capacity meets the capacity requirement of this project and prepare for long-term
planning.
The type of the delivered IF cables matches with the type of the connectors on the DDF.
The DDF is connected to the PGND in the cabinet through a cooper wire whose crosssectional area is not shorter than 6 mm2.
2.6 Requirements for the Ambient Environment of an

Outdoor Cabinet
If the ambient environment of an outdoor cabinet meets the requirements for running a base
station, it also meets the requirements for an IDU.
APM30H and TMC11H cabinets can be used as outdoor cabinets and require the similar ambient

The specific site selection requirements are as follows:
l
The site is far away from flammable and explosive articles.
The site is above 3.7 km away from the seaside or salt lakes.
The site is far away from power transformer stations.
The site is far from any livestock farms.

If the site cannot avoid livestock farms, the site is in the upwind direction of the livestock
farms.
The site is far from any pollution source.

The site is above 5 km far from heavy pollution sources, such as smelteries and coal
mines.
The site is above 3.7 km far from medium pollution sources, such as chemical factories,
rubber factories, and galvanization factories.
The site is above 2 km far from light pollution sources, such as packing house and
tanyard.
If the site cannot avoid a pollution source, the site is in the upwind direction of the pollution
source.
The site cannot be located in the following places:

Places where violent shakes or strong noise always occurs
Places with high temperature, much floating particles, and poisonous gas, for example,
industrial boilers and heating boilers
Places with low air pressure
Dusty roadside or sand field (If the places cannot be avoided, the door of the cabinet
must face the side reverse to the places.)
The air vent of the cabinet is far away from the exhaust of urban waste pipes, big cesspools,
and sewage treatment tanks. In addition, the cabinet is in a positive pressure state, therefore
preventing any corrosive gas from entering the cabinet and damaging the components and
circuit boards.
The cabinet is solid enough to withstand wind and heavy rainfall.
The site is preferred to be on the top of a building that consists of two or more floors. If the
condition is not permitted, the site is located on the ground that is 600 mm higher than the
maximum water level in the history of the local place.
NOTE
The site needs to avoid multiplication of microbe, such as eumycete and mycete, and keep blackbeetles
and rodents such as mice away.

4 Requirements for Installing IDUs on a Pole
Requirements for Installing IDUs on a Pole
About This Chapter

IDUs are installed inside the OMB, which is then mounted onto a pole.
4.1 Overview of the OMB
The OMB is a small heat exchange cabinet that provides DC power supply and DC power
distribution. When the OMB provides DC power distribution, a 2U space in the cabinet is
available for installing the user equipment.
To ensure long-term stable operation of equipment, the site of an equipment room must be
selected by considering the technical requirements of the network plan and communications
equipment and the hydrographic, geological, seismic, power supply, and transportation factors.
When the OptiX RTN equipment shares a site with the equipment at the base station or is
separately installed, the installation space is the same.
Different power supply modes are required for the OMB (Ver.C), depending on the application
scenarios.
A customer need not provide additional accessory equipment.

made from fire-resistant PE or PVC materials, and use the sockets of the test cables that are made from PVC
materials.
l The materials of the insulation parts and sockets of the cables meet the RoHS environmental protection
requirements.
l The cable materials also meet the local regulations or the requirements of the customer.
6.2 Requirements for Routing Cables

The cable routes and routing operations are specified at the preparation stage of the customer.
l
Different types of cables are routed separately.
Cabling routes and positions are designed in advance. All the cables are arranged neatly.
The bending part of a cable is even and smooth. The minimum bending radius is more than
60 mm for the cable and is more than 40 mm for the fiber. The minimum bending radius
of the IF cable is more than 30 cm.
The insulating layer of the conducting wire must not be damaged.
The cables that are routed along the wiring frame must be bundled.
The cables are bundled closely with appropriate force. The spacing between cable ties is
even.
The cables in the trough do not need to be bundled, but they need to be placed tidily and
straight with no crossover. No cable overflows the trough. At the inlets, outlets, and turns
of the trough, the cables are bundled with cable ties.
The power cable and PGND cable cannot have any connectors or welding spots in the
middle, and cannot be connected to a switch or a fuse.
If fiber jumpers are routed outside the cabinet, a corrugated pipe or a winding pipe must
be equipped.
The excessive fiber jumpers are coiled on a dedicated equipment, for example, a fiber
management tray. Proper force is applied to winding a fiber. Bending a fiber forcibly is not
allowed to prevent the fiber from being broken.
The two ends of a cable are bundled and affixed with labels.
