Incorrect cables and seals may not provide secured weather protection. In outdoor
installations, including the outdoor cabinet, use only tested, at least IP55 class outdoor
antenna jumper cables provided by Nokia Siemens Networks. This is also recom-
mended for indoor installations.

Flexi Multiradio BTS LTE RF Module and Remote Ra- RF Module operation and main blocks
dio Head description
The 3-sector RF Module has three independent transceivers each composed of one
transmitter chain and two independent uplink chains to implement uplink diversity. The
unit integrates an antenna filter unit that contains three filter blocks, each composed of
one duplex filter (main antenna) and RX filter (diversity antenna), providing six antenna
connectors for the BTS antenna line. The transceivers can be configured independently
to dual or single carrier modes.
The RF Module uses nominal 48 V DC for internal power supply.
The VSWR monitoring system is used for producing alarms for the antenna line condi-
tion against alarm threshold (RRH and 3-sector RF Module). As a default setting, the
minor alarm will be generated when the VSWR is 1.9 and major alarm (cell down) will
be generated when the VSWR is 2.6. However, it is possible to adjust both minor and
major alarm threshold between 1.5-3.5.

Functional blocks
The RF Module includes the following functional blocks:
• RF control block: There are interfaces from the RF control block towards the System
Module through optical connection. Most unit internal connections are made from
the RF control block. Signal processing and unit control functionalities are located in
this block.
• TX block: Analogue RF parts are located in the TX block.
• PA block: The power amplifier block amplifies TX block output signal to a specified
output power level.
• RX block
• Antenna filter block: Antenna filtering for TX and RX signals is done in the Antenna
filter block.
See the following figures for the functional blocks of the RF Module.

dio Head description ments
Maximum power consumption values consist of power feed to MHA + antenna tilt (3x30
W with the 3-sector RF Module). Up to 150 W higher power consumption can exist in
extreme conditions and in BTS output power overdrive situations. In possible short-
circuit cases (for instance, antenna line) power consumption can momentarily be higher.
