1.3 Typical Configurations of the MA5100 Cabinet

The MA5100 can be powered in three modes: 110V/220V AC and -48V DC. GEPS
4845 is used as AC power supply, while power distribution box as DC power supply.
Both of them are maintained from the front. See Chapter 7 Appendix for cable
connection inside the cabinet.

Based on the ADSL board types, the MA5100 has two cabinet configurations:
configuration with a SPL frame and configuration with no SPL frame.

1.3.1 Configuration with SPL Frame

When the ADLD/ADLI board is adopted, the splitter board (SPLC/SPLI) is required.
The SPLC/SPLI board is a passive board plugged to the SPL frame.

Refer to 05-Chapter 5 Arrangement of Cables and Optical Fibers for the cable
connection between the ADL board and the SPL board.

Chapter 3 Equipment Installation

H66-18 cabinet and H66-22 cabinet can be installed on cement floor, or on raised floor.
Expansion bolts are used for fastening to the cement floor, and S600A series brackets
are used for mounting on the raised floor. These two installation modes are similar ,so
we use H66 to stand for both of them in the following sections.

Caution:

z The H66 front-access cabinet has no feet with it and is fixed with expansion bolts. 8U-high (1U =
44.45mm) space is required for its installation. If there is not sufficient height left, dismantle some
modules in the lower part of the cabinet first.
z Insulating plate is put under the cabinet on the ground, and insulating shell around the expansion bolts.
Make sure that the insulating units are correctly installed so that the whole set of equipment is
insulated from the ground before the ground wire is connected, thus effectively meeting the insulation
requirement.

3.1 Cabinet Installation on the Cement Ground

The H66 cabinet is fixed to the cement ground with expansion bolts.

Precautions in installation:
z The site should be correctly marked off prior to the installation. Otherwise, the
installation work may have to be done again.
z The cabinet must be conveyed with care to prevent damage to any components.
z Make an overall inspection of the cabinet after the installation is completed. Solve
in time any problems that have been found, and clean the stains resulting from the
installation.

3.1.2 Cabinet Positioning

I. Planning the installation position of cabinet

Before the installation, first plan the available space. There should be sufficient space
for maintenance and operation at the front doors of the cabinet when it is installed
against the wall, as shown in Figure 3-2 and Figure 3-3. Figure 3-4 illustrates the
back-to-back installation of two cabinets.

II. Drawing lines

According to the reference dimension in the construction plane design diagram,


determine the location of the cabinet installation hole, measure several marking-out
points, mark out two lines which are parallel with the reference and whose spacing is
460mm. According to the design requirements, determine the installation hole location
for the first cabinet on the two lines. Then take the hole as the reference point, and
mark out the installation holes for other cabinets one by one. To avoid faults, after being
marked out, all hole location lines should be measured again so as to ensure the proper
dimension. Figure 3-2 shows installation hole location for single cabinet installation;
Figure 3-3 shows that for side-by-side installation; Figure 3-4 shows that for
back-to-back installation.

III. Drilling holes

Use a percussion drill with Φ16 bit to drill holes for the installation of the expansion
bolts.

When using the percussion drill, be sure to hold the bit perpendicular to the ground.
Hold the drill handle firmly with both hands to control the direction. Do not shake the drill
to avoid tilted holes or prevent damage to the floor.

The depth of the hole should be within the range of 52mm~60mm, and the depth of all
holes should be the same. Clean the hole before measuring the net-depth. When a
hole is drilled, use a vacuum cleaner to clean the dust.

If it is difficult to position the drill bit when the ground is too hard or slippery, chisel a pit
at the hole-mark to help position the bit.

Marking and drilling are the fundamental work for hardware installation. Any poor
precision may cause great inconvenience for the follow-up jobs.

Caution:

Keep the depth of the hole between 52mm and 60mm. Otherwise, the expansion bolt cannot be installed
and fastened properly.

IV. Installing expansion bolts

Prior to installation, clean the dust inside and outside the hole with vacuum cleaner and
then measure the spacing between holes. Relocate and drill before installing
expansion bolt in case of poor accuracy.

Installation procedures:
z Insert the guide rib on the expansion nut into the guide trough of the expansion
tube in advance. It is required for installation and fastening of expansion bolts.
z Take down the expansion tube and expansion nut, put them into the hole
vertically.

I. Structure and Assembly of the Cabling Ladder

The cabling ladder adopts the U-steel and the crosspiece as its framework, in which the
U-steel acts as the vertical post of the cabling ladder and the crosspiece functions as
the horizontal beam. During the assembly, just use the fastener to connect the
crosspiece with the U-steel. The spacing between two crosspieces is 250mm. Since
the hole spacing of the U-steel is 50mm, one crosspiece should be installed every 6
trough holes. When the assembled cabling ladder is used for the horizontal installation
of the cabling rack in the equipment room, the bolt head of the cabling ladder should
face downward, so as to facilitate the installation of the wiring trough since there is no
protruding on the cabling ladder. The basic structure of the cabling ladder is as shown
in Figure 3-32.

Figure 3-32 Structure of cabling ladder

When the project requires a long cabling ladder, multiple segments of cabling ladder
can be joined end to end. The connecting part is the U-shaped connecting piece, as
shown in Figure 3-33. When the length of the cabling ladder is not the integral multiple
of 2.5m in the actual installation, cut out the remainder. Paint the cross-section to
ensure rust resistance and a neat outlook.

II. Connecting and Installing the Wiring Trough

Since the wiring trough is conical to some degree, just insert the smaller end of the
wiring trough to the bigger end of another to connect them. The length of the inserted
part is 250mm.

When the 200mm-wide or 400mm-wide wiring trough is opted for the project, directly
place it on the cabling ladder. Then, secure the wiring trough on the cabling ladder with
the wiring trough fixing clip. Four clips are used for each segment of the wiring trough,

3-30
Installation Manual

Figure 3-34 Inter-trough (200mm-wide or 400mm-wide) connection and installation

When a wiring trough is opted for the 600-millimeter-wide cabling ladder, it can be the
combination of a 400mm-wide trough plus a 200mm-wide trough, which are joined by
connecting clips. For each segment of wiring trough, three connecting clips are used.
Secure the wiring trough onto the cabling ladder with the fixing clips. When the wiring
trough needs to be lengthened, the connecting method is the same as that mentioned
previously. Note that the trough should be lengthened first, and fixed next. The specific
connection is as shown in Figure 3-35.

III. Bending the cabling rack

1) Bending on a horizontal surface


When the cabling rack needs to be bent at a right angle on a horizontal surface, there
are two different installation methods depending on whether the wiring trough is opted
for the cabling rack.
z No wiring trough opted

3-31
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 3 Equipment Installation

When the intersecting cabling rack is solely composed of cabling ladders, use mount
angles and fasteners to join the two cabling ladders together. Make sure that the two
cabling ladders are at the same surface. See Figure 3-36.

(1) Cabling ladder A (2) Cabling ladder B (3) Mount angle (4) Fastener
Figure 3-36 Cabling ladder bending on horizontal surface

z Wiring trough opted


If any of the intersecting cabling racks has a wiring trough, the spacing of the two
cabling racks should be equal to the height of a wiring trough. That is, the height of the
cabling ladder for one party should be at the same level with the cabling trough of the
other, so as to ensure the cable run smoothly on the cabling rack. The installation is
shown in Figure 3-37. Mount angles and fasteners are also used here for the
connection, but the installation method of the mount angle is different from that
illustrated in Figure 3-36.

Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 3 Equipment Installation

2) Joining the cabling racks


When the cabling ladder is to descend or ascend, make a climbing ladder of the
following type using mount angles and the fasteners. Figure 3-38 shows the
perpendicular joining of the cabling ladder, in which the left figure is the illustration of
the joining at the front side and the right figure is the joining at the side. Pay attention to
the installation methods of the mount angles. Figure 3-39 shows the oblique joining.

IV. Attaching the cabling ladder to the wall

When the cabling ladder has to be attached to the wall, perform the installation
according to Figure 3-40. The connecting parts include mount angles, insulating plates,
insulating washers, fasteners and expansion bolts. Insulating plates and insulating

3-33
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 3 Equipment Installation

washers are used to insulate the cabling rack from the wall. Replace the washer
contained in the expansion bolt with the big flat washer Ø8, so as to increase the
contacting area of the washer and the insulating washer.

(5) Spring washer (6) Nut (7) Mount angle (8) Cabling ladder
Figure 3-40 Attaching the cabling ladder to the wall

V. Ceiling-mount or floor-mount installation

When the cabling rack is not attached to the wall, the ceiling-mount or floor-mount
installation method can be adopted. In the former method, the cabling rack is
connected to the ceiling; in the latter case, the cabling rack is connected to the ground.
U-steel, mount angles, fasteners and the expansion bolts are used for the connection .
Two pieces of U-steel are used to connect the cabling ladder to the wall or the ground.
The installation is the same as connecting a cabling rack to the wall.

Each piece of U-steel is 2.5m. Depending on the height of the cabling rack and that of
the equipment room, the steel can be cut to a suitable length. When the required length
is longer than 2.5m, you can join two pieces of U-steel together. The connecting
method is the same as that of cabling ladder connection. The U-shaped connecting
piece is used for the connection. Remember paint the cross-section.

Since the hole spacing of the U-steel is 50mm, the spacing of the suspender or the pole
support should be the integral multiple of 50mm. Otherwise, it is impossible to proceed
with the installation. It is recommended that the spacing of the two sets of the
suspending link or supporting link be 1250mm, i.e., each segment of the cabling ladder
be borne by two sets of suspender or pole support.

3-34
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 3 Equipment Installation

In ceiling-mount installation or floor-mount installation, the suspender or the pole


support has to be installed at the outer side of the cabling ladders to facilitate
positioning of the wiring trough. Ensure the insulation between the suspender/pole
support and the ceiling/ground. Make sure to add the insulating plate and the insulating
washer, as shown in Figure 3-41.

VI. Installing the triangular support

When the cabling rack is installed against the wall, triangular supports are used.

The triangular support adopts the welded structure, and is fixed on the wall via
expansion bolts. On its horizontal beam, there are some holes for installing cabling
ladder. Three types of triangular supports are available, corresponding respectively to
installation of the 200mm-wide, 400mm-wide, and 600mm-wide cabling ladder (the
triangular support with greater length can be used to support the smaller cabling ladder,
but it is not recommended).

When installing the cabling ladder, place the cabling ladder upon the horizontal beam of
the triangular support, and then tighten them with connecting pieces.

3-35
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 3 Equipment Installation

Caution:

The distance between two triangular supports must be an integer multiple of 50 mm. Otherwise, the
cabling ladder cannot be fixed with triangular supports. The recommended distance is 1250mm, that is,
each segment of cabling ladder is supported by two triangular supports.

Here, replace the flat washer contained in the expansion bolt with the big flat washer
Ø8. Two pieces of insulating plates must be installed between the vertical post of the
triangular support and the wall, and installation pads must be installed between the nut
and the vertical post. Be sure that each nut is outfitted with an insulating washer. Figure
3-42 shows the installation method of the triangular support.

Figure 3-42 Installation of triangular support

VII. Connection at cabinet top

When the cabling rack runs over the cabinet top, the cabinet-top connection mode is
adopted. To improve the heat dissipation of the system, usually, the wiring trough is not
opted for the cabling rack at the cabinet-top. There are two methods for the cabinet-top
connection.
1) Cabinet-top shockproof support connection
The cabinet-top shockproof support is welded angle iron, ensuring the intensity. Two
bolt holes at the cabinet top are used to secure the shockproof support. The shockproof
support is used to bear and fix the cabling rack. Fasteners are used to fix the ladder to
the shockproof support via the bolt holes on the shockproof. See Figure 3-43 and
Figure 3-44 for the connection.

2) Connecting the climbing ladder


When there is no support on the cabinet top, connect a climbing ladder according to the
size of the holes on the cabinet top. Please refer to the right diagram in Figure 3-38 and
Figure 3-39.

VIII. Installing accessories

1) Installing the cable-through rack


There are two installation methods for the cable-through rack, depending on whether
the wiring trough is opted. Figure 3-45 illustrates the case when the wiring trough is not
opted for the cabling rack. Here, the hole at the upper row of the cable-through rack is
used. When the wiring trough is opted, the hole at the lower row of the cable-through
rack is used, ensuring that the upper plane of the cable-through rack is kept about the

3-37
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 3 Equipment Installation

same level with the top plane of the cabling rack. This is for the convenience of cabling.
Generally, the cable-through rack is installed on the cabling ladder of the cabinet top. Its
quantity and location varies with the actual condition.

(1) Cabling rack (2) Cable-through rack


(3) Upper-row hole of cable-through rack (4) Lower-row hole of cable-through rack
Figure 3-45 Installation of cable-through rack when no wiring trough opted for cabling rack

2) Installing side shield, cable-shielding rings and cable bushing


The cable-shielding rings are directly clipped at both sides of the wiring trough. By
adding the cable-shielding ring, the edge of the wiring trough is heightened and the
cable could not easily get across the wiring trough. See Figure 3-34 for illustration. Four
cable-shielding rings are used for each segment of wiring trough and they are located
evenly at both sides.

Side shield is installed at the side of the cabling ladder. This is to keep a good outlook
and avoid unintentional damage to the cable.

The cable bushing is installed at the bottom edge to avoid any possible damage to the
cable. Any naked bottom edge of the wiring trough should be installed with cable
bushing. Please refer to the left diagram in Figure 3-38 for the installation of the side
shield and the cable bushing.

3.3.3 Shockproof and reinforcement measures for the cabling rack

As shown in Figure 3-46, cabling racks have formed a network and are connected with
the cabinet as an integrated body, which accommodates excellent shockproof
functionality. Therefore, when planning the shockproof and reinforcement for the
cabinet, just connect the cabling rack to the wall with the U-steel where it is necessary
to enhance the shockproof performance of the whole network (including the cabinet). It
is recommended to install a piece of U-steel at every other cabinet. The connecting
method to the wall is the same as that for ceiling-mount or floor-mount installation,

3-38
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 3 Equipment Installation

where mount-angles are also used. Ensure the insulation between the whole network
and the wall by adding insulating plate and insulating washer.

Figure 3-51 Installation of the air filter

II. Cleasing of the air filter

To guarantee proper heat dissipation and system ventilation, it is necessary to cleanse


the air filter regularly, e.g., every 3~6 months as recommended.

Usually, when installed in a well-conditioned equipment room, the air filter is to be


cleaned every 6 months; and when installed in a poor-conditioned room, the air filter is
to be cleaned every 3 months.

There are two cleansing methods for the air filter: dry-cleaning and water-washing.
1) Dry-cleaning
Remove the air filter from the cabinet. Flap off the thick dust off the filter, and then use a
vacuum cleaner to remove the remaining dust on the filter. Finally reinstall it to the

z In -48VDC power supply, power distribution box is used.

4.2 Installing AC Power Supply System and Corollary


Equipment

4.2.1 Installing Lightning Protection Box

I. Overview of SPD23SZ Lightning Protection Box

The MA5100 uses the SPD23SZ lightning protection box (referred to as SPD23SZ
hereinafter). This lightning protection box is designed to be installed in a 19-inch
cabinet. In compliance with the requirements specified in IEC-60664, IEC-61312 and
IEC-61643, it provides Class C protection for single-phase AC power supply. It provides
efficient protection against over-voltage and alarm circuit.
1) Introduction to lightning protection box
Dimensions of the SPD23SZ are 276.0×270.0×137.2mm (H×W×D). It weighs 4.26kg.
There are three cabling holes (I~III) at its top, and two holes at the back for securing
purpose. Front view and rear view of the SPD23SZ are shown in Figure 4-1
respectively.

(1) RUN (in green) (2) ALM (in red) (3) ON/OFF switch
Figure 4-1 Front view and rear view of the SPD23SZ

2) Over-voltage protection
When the voltage of mains reaches 295V~305V, the over-voltage protection function of
the SPD23SZ will be started. It cuts off the power supply to the MA5100 to protect the
power supply system and equipment. When the mains voltage falls to 280V~290V or
even lower, the power supply to the MA5100 is recovered.

Note:
When the over-voltage protection function is started, the SPD23SZ still provides the lightning protection
function. The green LED on its front panel remains on.

3) Application range
Due to the capacity limit of the over-voltage protection circuit, the SPD23SZ is mainly
used for the power system with AC input less than 20A.

II. Introduction to SPD32SZ lightning protection box

When the MA5100 is power by 110VAC supply, SPD32SZ lightning protection box is
required, to protect the power module and loads from being surged by lightning
over-voltage or transient over-voltage.

Characteristics of SPD32SZ lightning protection box:


z Series circuit can ensure high protective performance and low residual voltage.
z Temperature on/off control and built-in overvoltage circuit can prevent totally fire
disaster.
z Multiple auto current balancing makes it a preference for the area often stricken by
thunder.
z Common mode and differential mode protection
z Mains-diesel alternative switch

Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 4 Installing Power Supply System

Note:
z Shut off the power supply before installing the SPD23SZ. Make sure that no dangerous voltage exists
on the neutral line (N).
z After the LPB installation is completed, turn on the MCB to start the LPB. If the MCB is switched off,
then the lightning protection function will become unavailable and the power supply will be terminated.
Therefore, it is forbidden to switch off the MCB in the LPB during normal operation.

1) Secure the SPD23SZ against the wall using two expansion bolts. The AC power
cord between the SPD23SZ and the MA5100 should be 5~10m.
2) Open the faceplate of the SPD23SZ, and perform the cabling according to the joint
detail attached on the back of the front panel.
3) Led out a ground cable (PE line) from the grounding busbar in the SPD23SZ, and
then connect it to the protection grounding bar in the equipment room. The cross
sectional area of the ground cable should not be smaller than 25mm2. Keep the
connection cable as short as possible. The grounding resistance should not be
larger than 5Ω.
4) Make sure that all connections are reliable and proper.
5) Make sure that all the connections conform to the joint detail. Then connect the
power at the miniature circuit breaker (MCB) to power on the SPD23SZ. Confirm
that the RUN LED on the panel lights, and the ALM LED lights when the power at
the MCB is disconnected.
6) Close the cabinet faceplate.

Note:
MA5100 grounding must be connected to the grounding bar of the lightning protection box.
For the electronic connection of the LPB and MA5100, see 4.2.2 Figure 4-4.

V. Maintenance of the Lightning Protection Box

1) If the green LED on the panel lights, it indicates that the lightning protection
function is normal.
2) If the red LED on the panel lights, it indicates the lightning protection box failure. In
such case, contact the customer service personnel of Huawei Technologies in
time for SPD23SZ replacement.
3) If it is required to disconnect the PE line for some reason, cut off the AC power
supply to the SPD23SZ first to remove the dangerous internal voltage. Always
confirm there is no dangerous voltage in the neutral line (N).
4) The prerequisite conditions for normal operations of the SPD23SZ are as follows:

4.2.3 Installing the Battery

Batteries are not pre-installed in the cabinet due its heavy weight. The arrangement
and cablings of batteries are implemented on site. To install the batteries, follow exactly
the descriptions below. Any short circuit may hurt personnel and damage the
equipment.

Note:
In most cases, four batteries which forms a group can meet the power supply requirement. You can install
two groups of batteries when necessary.

I. Introduction to battery rack

As the batteries are installed outside of the MA5100, the external battery racks are
needed.

4-11
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 4 Installing Power Supply System

The battery rack consists of rack, cover, cable fixing socket and cabling stud. The
cabling stud is protected by the cover. See Figure 4-6 for the mechanical outline of the
battery rack.

(1) Rack (2) Wire fixing base r


Figure 4-6 Mechanical outline of battery rack

II. Installing the battery rack

The load-bearing capacity of the floor in the equipment room is required to be at least
500 kg/m2 for the installation of the battery rack.

Tools required for installing the battery rack include:


z One cross screwdriver
z One flathead screwdriver
z Two wrenches
z One angle plier
z One multimeter

III. Battery installation precautions

z When a battery is in the open-circuit state, its performance will degrade


irreversibly. Long time storage of batteries (more than three months) without
recharge will cause an irrecoverable loss of battery capacity, which affects the
battery’s service life severely.
z Before the installation, measure the open circuit voltage of the battery. If the open
circuit voltage is lower than the specified lower limit (12.48V for 12V battery, and
2.08V for 2V battery) due to self-discharge, or the batteries are not installed three

4-12
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 4 Installing Power Supply System

months after arrival, the battery must be recharged. The charge mode is the forced
even charge. The charging voltage is 14.3~14.5V/PC (for 12V battery), or
2.35~2 .45V/PC (for 2V battery), and the charging time is 20~24 hours (do not
exceed 24 hours).
z If the open circuit voltage of the battery is too lower (12.12V for 12V battery, and
2.02V for 2V battery) due to self-discharge, ask the specialists to handle it.
z During the installation, each battery should be kept at least 10mm space away
from each other, facilitating its heat dissipation during the running.

Caution:

1) The batteries must be connected with the power supply system correctly. Otherwise, they may not be
managed properly, or the recharge current may be too excessive. Therefore, it is necessary to check the
wiring connection carefully. If any problem arises, resolve it immediately.
2) Disconnect the power distribution control equipment before installing battery.
3) Operate the equipment carefully, and avoid reverse connection or short circuit.

IV. Installing batteries

Install the battery according to the following procedure:


1) Put the battery on the battery shelf
The battery support has two layers and each can accommodate four batteries. shows
the installation effect of the batteries on the shelf. ith one battery group installed only,
the batteries should be installed at the lower layer.
2) Connect the anode and cathode of each group of batteries

V. Checking the battery installation

After the battery shelf is installed, follow the steps below to check if the battery can work
normally.
1) Connect correctly the battery and the GEPS4845 power supply. Turn on the AC
power supply and check if the system is normally powered (the board LEDs are in
normal status).
2) Turn off the AC power input and check the board LED status. If the LED status is
still normal, it means that the battery works normally. If the LED turns off, it means
that the battery does not work normally. In this case, find out the problem and
reinstall the battery.

VI. Precautions

1) When a battery is in the open circuit status, its performance always degrades
irreversibly. If the batteries have not been recharged during long storage (more
than 3 months), an irrecoverable loss of battery capacity will occur, which will
severely affect the batteries’ service life.
2) If the open circuit voltage is lower than the specified lower limit (12.48V for 12V
battery, and 2.08V for 2V battery) due to self-discharge, or the batteries are not
installed three months after arrival, then you must charge the batteries. The

4-15
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 4 Installing Power Supply System

charging mode is the forced even charging. The charging voltage is


14.3~14.5V/PCS (for 12V battery), or 2.35~2 .45V/PCS (for 2V battery). The
charging time is 20~24 hours, but should not exceed 24 hours.
3) Recovery of stable voltage recharge: If the open circuit voltage is below the
specified lower limit (12.12V for 12V batteries, 2.02V for 2V batteries) due to
self-discharge of the battery, only professionals are entitled to handle the situation.
4) Please measure the open circuit voltage of the batteries before installation. The
voltage of the 12V battery should not be lower than 12.48V and that of the 2V
battery should not be lower than 2.08V. Otherwise, the batteries need to be
charged.

Caution:

The connections between the batteries and the power distribution system should be proper, or it will cause
problems such as: The battery management cannot be implemented, excessive battery charging current,
etc. Therefore, please check whether the system connections are proper and modify in time if any problem
is found.

To extend electric interfaces and facilitate cable distribution, connect the -48V power
supply directly to the power distribution frame, and then to transmission equipment and
the MA5100 through the power distribution frame and cables.

Figure 4-11 shows the outline of the power distribution frame.

(1) Output terminal (2) Output switch (3) Input terminal


(4) Monitoring parameter output terminal (5) Surge protection board
Figure 4-11 Outline of power distribution frame

Components and their functions:


z The output terminals are common UK6N terminals. They are 18 terminals forming
9 load outputs (One output comprises one pair of positive pole and negative pole).
z The three independent branch switches controls the nine load outputs respectively.
The branch switch uses magnetic-break protector. The rated current of each
switch is 50A. When there is occurrence of short-circuit or over-current, the switch
will be automatically broken to isolate the failure.
z The input terminals are OT terminals. They are used for reliable connection of
power cables. The terminals have transparent attachable protection caps, which
ensure efficient separation from other components and objects.
z The monitoring parameter output terminal is a DB15 connector. It supports
outputting four digital signals including the signal of DC input surge protection and
the signals of branch switch status, which monitor whether the surge protection
circuit is valid and whether the three branch switches are normal respectively.
z The surge protection board suppresses transient surge current of external -48V
DC input. When its protection circuit becomes invalid, the board can be pulled out
or plugged in at hot-line situation for maintenance.

Fibers

5.1 Cabling Requirements


The technical requirements and precautions during cabling work are as follows:
1) The power cables, ground wires and various signal wires should be firmly and
reliably connected at both ends, and the socket connections or screw
connections should be reliable. If two or more OT terminals are to be installed
on one connector post, the cross installation mode should be adopted. The
smaller OT terminal(s) should be installed above the larger one(s), or the OT
terminal should be bent by 45° or 90°. The overlapping installation is not allowed
for the OT terminal.

(1) The overlapping is forbidden (2) Bent by 45°or 90°


(3) It is forbidden to install the smaller terminal below (4) Cross installation

Figure 5-1 OT terminal installation

2) Labels on both ends of the cable should be properly positioned, with correct and
clear contents. The numbers for both ends of the cable should be written on
strap labels, which are tied 2cm behind the connectors respectively. See Figure
5-2 for details, and the labels should indicate the corresponding relations.

5-1
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 5 Arrangement of Cables and Optical Fibers

(1) Labels

Figure 5-2 Cable labels

3) All cables, especially the digital trunk cables and optical fiber pigtails, can not be
excessively bent at turning points so as to protect the cable cores from damage.
Figure 5-3 shows the bundling of subscriber cables at turning points.

(1) No bundling at the bend (2) Cable tie

Figure 5-3 Bundling of subscriber cables at turning points

4) Cable bending radius should be more than two times of its diameter. The
bending radius near the connector outlet reaches 4~6 times. In general, it is
more than 4cm. For optic fiber, the bending radius is more than 20 times of its
diameter.
5) To bundle cables between the frames, three cable ties should be used for each
frame, and the top one should be at the bend. The space between cable ties
should be even and the buckles should be at the outer edge of the cable
bundles.
6) Cable trough arrangement technique
First, clean the rubbish in the trough. And seal both ends to keep rat from damaging
the cables.
All cables from the inlet of the trough to the inside of the cabinet should be arranged
in good order. The cables should be of the same lengths in the trough. See Figure
5-4 for details.

5-2
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 5 Arrangement of Cables and Optical Fibers

Signal cables in the trough should be separated from power cables as far as possible.
They should not be too close to each other (5cm distance at least), let alone being
bundled together.

(1) Subscriber cable (2) Distribution frame (3) Trough

Figure 5-4 Schematic diagram of cable trough layout

1) The cables must be neatly arranged, without skin damage, and should not be
pulled by force. Leave a certain margin and keep moderate bundling.
2) The cables can not be mixed, and cables of different kinds should be laid out
separately.
3) The specifications, routes, cross sections and positions of cables should
conform to the stipulations in the construction drawings. The cable arrangement
and the use of ports should facilitate the future maintenance and capacity
expansion.
4) The cables laid in walkway must be bundled. The bundled cables should be
close and the appearance is regular. The spacing between cable ties is even
with moderate tightness. Especially, the fiber pigtails should not be bundled too
tightly. If flaxen thread is used as the binding material, it should be wax-soaked.
Cables laid in trenches/troughs are not required to be bundled, but should be
tidily arranged to avoid crossing-over if possible. The cables should be kept

5-3
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 5 Arrangement of Cables and Optical Fibers

within the trough. At the ingress and egress of the trough and the cable bend,
the cables should be properly bundled and fixed with plastic fastener. Protection
sleeves are required for the fibers distributed in the trough.
5) Cables should be bundled with an even spacing. Bundle the cables at every 8
square holes on the square-hole bar (for power cables and ground wires). At the
back of the cabinet, bundle the cables wherever they go across a beam (for
communication cables). The cable ties should be free of sharp tips and the
buckles should point to the same direction if possible. Excessive optical fibers
and cables should be tidily coiled up so that they can be found conveniently.
Fiber pigtails that are not in use temporarily should be well protected. Cable
connectors made on site must be firm, reliable and neat.
6) If the equipment room is installed with the anti-static floor, it is recommended
that the subscriber cable adopt the lower cabling mode. Thus the cabling is
elegant and easy to run. If the equipment is not installed with the support, the
upper cabling method should be adopted, and the cable guide are installed over
the cabinet. When the lower cabling mode is adopted, all cables pass through
the floor interlayer or cabling trough. When the upper cabling is adopted, the
cables pass through the upper cabling cabinet or lower cabling cabinet over the
cabinet. The cabling standard, route, cross section and location should comply
with the stipulations in the construction drawings. The cables must be arranged
in order and there is no damage on the sheaths. The specifications, routes,
cross sections and positions of the cables should conform to the stipulations in
the construction drawings. The cables should be tidily arranged, without skin
damage. The subscriber cables and the power cables should be arranged

5.2 Arrangement of Cables


5.2.1 Overview

The MA5100 frame is equipped with 16 slots, which are numbered, from left to right,
as 0~15. Slots 7 and 8 are for the main control board exclusively. Other slots can be
inserted with any service board. Both the main control board and the service boards
adopt the front-panel-leading-out mode.
The MA5100 adopts the H66 Series cabinet, where cable is arranged as the follows:
1) Cable and optical fiber are led out from the front panel of the board.
2) The cable is routed to the wiring frame, then to the wire bushing at the two sides
of the cabinet, where it is bundled.
3) You can adopt downward routing or upward routing as required. Bundle the
cables at the two sides of the cabinet, and lead the cables out from the top or
the bottom of the cabinet.

32-channel SPLI.

ADCE The board, with a built-in Splitter, provides 32 ADSL2+ interfaces.

The ADSL boards use the same 32-channel ADSL cables. However, their wiring
ways are different. According to whether a board needs to coordinate with the Splitter,
these boards can be divided into the following two categories:
z Coordinate with the Splitter: ADLI
z Not coordinate with the Splitter: ADLE, ADLG, ADLH, ADLJ, and ADCE.
The following describes how to install cables for these two categories of boards.

SPL user cables are front-access-cabled inside the cabinet. The SPL user cables out
of the front panel of the SPL board are routed to the both sides of the cabinet from
the cabling frame. These cables should be bundled along the both sides of the
cabinet. They should not be bundled with power cables.
When inserting the ADSL cable plug, push it in horizontally without shaking to the
right or left. When pulling the plug out, pinch the locker on the plug with your fingers,
and then pull it out horizontally, shown as Figure 5-8.

Figure 5-8 ADSL board cable plug-in/pull-out diagram

Note
Wrong plug-in or pull-out operation may curve the pins. If feeling any relatively heavy pressure in the
course of plug-in or pull-out, stop the operation, and check whether the pins are curved or broken off.

III. Installing ADLE/ADLG/ADLH/ADLJ/ADCE Cable

ADLE/ADLG/ADLH/ADLJ/ADCE has a built-in splitter module to realize voice


splitting individually. This kind of borads use the same cable as ADLI cable. Figure

The following points should be cautioned in ADLE/ADLG/ADLH/ADLJ/ADCE cabling


in the case of full configuration of the cabinet:
z Subscriber cables should be bundled tightly together. In a frame, it is
recommended to first arrange cables of slots 6 and 9 (service slots in the middle)
then cables of slots 5~0 and 10~15. The first arranged cables are put on the
later arranged cable in bundling, so that too tight cable installation will not
disturb board insertion and removal.

The E1 cabling is performed in the front of the MA5100 cabinet. The E1 cable led out
from the front panel is routed to the both sides of the cabinet through the cabling
frame in the bottom of MA5100 frame. Bundle it along the left or right sides of the
cabinet separately, and keep it away from the power cords and other unshielded
signaling cables.

5.2.8 Installing E8IT Cable

When MMX and AIU are configured with the E8IT subboard for IMA service, it
provides 8-channel E1 interfaces. 4-channel E1 trunk cable is needed. One end of
the E1 cable uses DB50PIN connector to connect with DB50 interface in E8IT board.
The other end uses either SMB connector or naked cable. When using SMB
connector, the CESC cable is directly connected to a switch. When using naked
cable, the CESC cable is directly connected to the MDF
Three trunk cables are available:

5.2.9 Installing Master-slave Subtending Cable

The subtending module mainly controls the access of slave frames of the MA5100.
There are two master-slave subtending modes: SEPA/SMXB and SEPL/SMXL:
z The SEPA board in the master frame is connected with the SMXB board in the
slave frame through LVDS (IEEE 1394cables). Thus, the slave frame is
subtended to the master frame. Messages between the service boards in the
slave frames and the MMX in the master frame are transmitted through the
SMXB and the SEPA boards.
z The SEPL board in the master frame is connected with the SXML board in the
slave frame through optical fibers. Thus, the slave frame is subtended to the
master frame. Messages between the service boards in the slave frames and
the MMX in the master frame are transmitted through the SMXL and the SEPL
boards.

Note:
The frame ID of the master frame is fixed as 0, and the IDs of the slave frames range from 1 to 4. In
the aforesaid two subtending modes, the slave frames are numbered differently. For details, refer to
SmartAX MA5100/5103 Multi-service Access Module Operation Manual.

The following introduces the two subtending modes.

Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 5 Arrangement of Cables and Optical Fibers

optical interfaces, two multi-mode STM-1 ATM interfaces or eight E1 IMA interfaces.
Silk screen on the board is shown in Figure 5-20.

Note:
z AIUA supports at most two subboards, but you cannot configure two subboards which provide
different types of interfaces, that is one of the STM-1 optical subboard, IAM subboard, APON
subboard (here we see single-mode interface and multimode interface as the same type.).
z AIUA supports 1~4 155M ATM optical interfaces, which work independently. That is, they cannot
work in active/standby mode and also not in load-sharing mode. The first subboard must be of
dual-interface type when three optical interfaces are required in configuration.

II. Installing AIU cable

When configured with IMA subboard, E8IT cable is used. See 5.2.8 Installing E8IT
Cable.
When configured with ATM subboard, optical fiber is used, see 5.3 Installing and
Arranging Optical Fiber.

5.3 Installing and Arranging Optical Fiber


The MA5100 can be configured with one or two 155M ATM optical fibers. The optical
fiber can not be bundled too tightly, and the flexure diameter can not be less than
40mm. Put the extra pigtail under the cabinet bottom neatly. When the optical fiber is
installed outside the cabinet, it should be equipped with protective tube, and the
protective tube shall be secured in the cabinet. The fiber is led out from the MMX
optical interface, and led into the back of the cabinet through the cabling frame.
Bundle the fiber along the left and right side of the cabinet. Make proper labels on the
fibers.

Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 6 Checking Hardware Installation

Chapter 6 Checking Hardware Installation

When the hardware installation is completed, it is required to check the hardware


installation to make good preparations for the subsequent software installation and
system debugging. The checkup includes the following three aspects:
z Making overall inspection
z Checking system power supply
z Checking system status after power-on

6.1 Making Overall Inspection

The overall inspection refers to review of the entire installation work. The check items
include cabinets, cable distribution, connectors, sockets, labels, and site environment,
which are described in detail in the following paragraphs:

I. Checking cabinets

The check points are as follows:


z The installed cabinets should be stable and tidy. For multiple rows of cabinet, each
row shall run parallel.
z The vertical deviation of cabinets should be within 3mm.
z All cover plates and doors should be fit on the cabinets and be in a line, with the
deviation less than 5mm. Two adjacent cabinets should be fixed together closely.
The front surface and back surface of the cabinets in the same row should be on
the same plane.
z Make sure that all the screws are fixed firmly, with flat and spring washers
mounted properly.
z The parts on the cabinets should be intact and in right place; the connection lines
should not be damaged or broken; the labels should be correct, clear and
complete.
z The cabinets should be spotless. Fingerprints left during the installation should be
cleaned up.
z The cabling holes at the top and bottom of the cabinets should be covered to
prevent small creatures (such as mice) from entering.

II. Checking cable distribution

1) Power cables and ground cables


This checkup covers all the power cables and ground cables which come from the
AC/DC modules first to power distribution boxes on the cabinet back, then to the

6-1
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 6 Checking Hardware Installation

busbars and to the power sockets on various backplanes. Make sure that all the power
cables and ground cables are reliably and correctly connected.
2) Intra-module cables
z All cables are correctly connected and the connectors are free of loose
connection.
z All the cables are bundled properly and spacing between ties is appropriate.
z Cable ties are not overlaid, and have no sharp ends.
3) Cables and optical fibers
z Cables cannot be too tight at turn points.
z The wiring route should be correct and cables should be bundled with the same
interval.
z The cables inside the cabinets should be straight and smooth without crossover.
The cables outside the cabinets should be bundled together.
z The cables in the troughs or along the cabling ladders should be tidily arranged. All
cables should be bound properly without damage to the jacket.
z Proper surplus should be left for the cables. The cable ties should be cut with flush
ends and without superimposition.

III. Checking connectors and sockets

1) Connectors
The locking catches of the cable connectors should be firmly buckled and coaxial cable
connectors should be fixed firmly.
2) Sockets
Check all the sockets to make sure that there is no broken pin and bent pins does not
cause short circuit.

IV. Checking labels

All labels should be clean, clear and neatly arranged in proper position.

V. Checking site environment

1) Cabinets
No redundant cable tie end, cable end or other sundries is left in cabinets. The front and
rear doors, side cover plates of cabinets should be clean with no stain, fingerprint and
the like left.
2) Cabling trough
No engineering remnants, such as cable tie ends, cable ends and desiccant bags,
should be left in the cabling troughs, under cabinets or the raised floor around cabinets.
3) Equipment room

6-2
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 6 Checking Hardware Installation

Unnecessary materials should be dismissed out of the equipment room and necessary
articles should be in order. The operation consoles should be clean and orderly, and
raised floor should be smooth and clean.

After checking of the hardware installation, check the power system.

6.2 Checking System Power Supply

Power on the system after the hardware installation checkup is completed. The specific
steps are as follows:
1) Set the main switch of the 220V AC or -48V DC power supply to OFF.
2) Set all the AC power sockets and power switches connected with the equipment
and terminals to OFF.
3) Pull out all the boards from the MA5100 case, or just loosely mount them in the
case, but make sure that board does not touch the pins on the backplane.
4) Test with a multimeter to determine whether short circuit exists between the phase
line (live wire), ground line and neutral line of each power socket.
5) If the 220V AC power supply is used, switch on the main switch of the 220V AC
power supply and measure with a multimeter to determine whether power voltage
at the UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) input is normal. If it is normal, then
switch on the UPS and measure whether the UPS output is normal. Switch on the
switch of equipment power socket and measure with the multimeter to see
whether the output is normal. At the point the input VIN ELD on the MA5100
rectifier module is ON.
6) If the -48V DC power supply is used, first test whether any short circuit occurs in
the three PDF terminals (-48V, GND and PGND) with a multimeter. Then, switch
on the main switch of the -48V DC power supply and measure with a multimeter to
see whether the voltages between –48V DC and GND, -48V DC and PGND in
PDF are normal (-40V~-57V).

6.3 Checking System Status after Power-on

After the system power supply is tested to be normal, proceed to check the system
status.
1) If the 220V AC power input is normal, switch on the switch of the MA5100 rectifier
module and the power switch of the cabinet. The green RUN LED (Light Emitting
Diode) on the panel of each rectifier module should be ON, and the red ALM LED
should be OFF all the time. The fans in the fan frame and in the equipment case
start working. If any fan is abnormal, please take it out of the fan frame for test.
2) If the -48V DC power input is normal, turn on the power switch of the cabinet. At
this time, fans in the fan frame in the equipment case should start working. If any
fan is abnormal, please take it out of the fan frame for test.

7.4 Engineering Labels for Cables

Engineering labels are affixed to both ends of the various cables to identify the physical
positions of cables on different devices. Labels on the cables facilitate correct and
orderly connection of cables, and easy maintenance after the installation.

There are two types of engineering labels, specialized for the power cables and signal
cables respectively. The power cables include the AC power cables and DC power
cables (excluding the power cable that connects the distribution box and the cabinet).

7-24
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 7 Appendix

The signal cables include external cables of alarm box, Ethernet cables, optical fibers,
trunk cables and subscriber cables (excluding the antenna feeders).

Note:
In case there is special requirement from the user of the equipment on the description method of the labels,
the labels should be printed accordingly. However, this must be stated in the self-check report.

7.4.1 Introduction to Labels

I. Material

z Material: Polyester (PET), with UL and CSA certifications


z Color: chalk white
z Thickness: 0.09mm
z Ambient temperature: -29~149 degrees Celsius
z Laser printing or handwriting with oiliness markers

II. Type and Shape

There are two types of engineering labels for power cables and signal cables
respectively.
1) Label for signal cables
The label for signal cables is L-shaped with fixed dimensions, as shown in Figure 7-29
(expressed in mm).

TO:

(1) Dividing line (2) Cut dotted line


Figure 7-29 Label for signal cables

The dividing lines on the label help to specify more clearly the position of a cable. For
example, there is one between the cabinet number and the frame number and another
one between the frame number and the slot number. The dividing line is 1.5mm×0.6mm
in size with the color of PONTONE 656c (light blue).

7-25
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 7 Appendix

The cut dotted line helps to fold the label when affixing it to the cable, and its size is
1.0mm×2.0mm.

There is a mark “TO:” (upside down in the figure) at the lower right corner of the label.
The mark is used to identify the opposite end of the cable on which the label is affixed.
2) Label for power cables
The label for power cables should be attached to the identification plate on the cable
ties that are bundled to the cable. The identification plate has an embossment of
0.2mm×0.6mm around (symmetric on both sides), and the area in the middle is for
affixing the label, as shown in Figure 7-30 (expressed in mm):

7.4.2 Printing Labels

The contents can be printed or written on the labels. Printing is recommended for the
sake of high efficiency and eye-pleasant layout.

I. Template for the printing

The Word-form template is available for label printout. You can download the template
from http://tech-support.huawei.com/asp/comm/index.asp (path://support/
document/project management/installation and maintenance/document/others), or get
the template from Huawei local office.

When using the template, you can directly modify the contents on the template, and the
following should be observed:
z The settings of centered characters, direction, and fonts should not be changed.
z When there are too many characters to be filled in, zoom out the characters, but
make sure the printouts are clear and legible.

7-26
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 7 Appendix

II. Cells merging on the template

To merge the cells, you should first recover the table structure (if gridlines are displayed,
you can start from Step 3 directly).
1) Select the menu item [Edit/Select All].
2) Select the menu item [Format/Borders and Shading/Borders]. Select Box and
click <OK>.
3) Drag the mouse to select the cells to be merged and select the menu item
[Table/Merge Cells].
If two merged cells are still not enough to accommodate the characters, use multiple
lines.

III. Requirements on the printer

To print the labels, laser jet printer must be used, although there is no restriction on the
model of the printer. Before printing the label, set up the page and try the printing on
ordinary blank paper (both sides are blank):
1) Cover the blank paper onto the whole page of label paper, and check whether the
page setup conforms to the requirement.
2) Make sure the printer properties, such as "paper size" and “direction”, have been
set correctly.
3) If the warning prompt as shown in Figure 7-31 appears before printing, click
<Ignore> to continue the printing.

Figure 7-31 Warning prompt before printing

If the printout confoms to the requiremnt, print it to label paper. If the printout does not
conform, adjust the page setup and try the printing again, until the correct printout is
produced. The method of adjusting the page setup is as follows:
1) Select the menu item [File/Page Setup].
2) Select the Margins tab page.
3) Select Left for Gutter Position.
4) Set Header and Footer as 0, and adjust the values of Top, Bottom, Left, and
Right.
After the page setup has been made correct, save it for future use. This page setup is
only necessary in the first time you use the template to print the labels.

7-27
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 7 Appendix

IV. Requirements on feeding the printer

Different from the ordinary paper, the label paper is composed of two pages. No matter
what model of printer you are using, feed in the labels one after another by hand. Never
use the auto-feed mode in order to avoid jamming the labels. Different models of
printers may have different feeding modes, make sure to feed in the labels correctly.

V. Requirements on the printed label

Make sure the printed label satisfy the following requirements:


z All the printouts must be on the label, and nothing should be printed on the bottom
page of the label.
z Contents in the cells should be aligned in the center. In a single-line printout, the
dividing lines and the mark “TO” should not be covered by the printed characters.
z When the cells are merged and the printouts are made in multiple lines, avoid
covering the mark “TO” when printing the texts by using the space bar to move the
printing contents to the next line.

7.4.3 Writing Labels

Use the black oiliness markers delivered together with the device to write the labels.

In special cases, black ball-pens are allowed, although not recommended. When
writing with the ball-pen, take care not to leave the oil on the label, which may
contaminate the label and blur the words..

Note:
The delivered marker has two nibs. Make sure to use the smaller nib to write the labels.

For the sake of easy recognition and good looking, the font in handwriting should be
close to the standard typeface as much as possible. Table 7-14 shows the standard
typeface.

7.4.4 Affixing Labels

After printing or writing the label, remove the label from the bottom page and affix it to
the signal cable, or the identification plate of the power cable.

I. Affixing the label to the signal cable

The steps to affix the label to the cable are shown in Figure 7-33, Figure 7-34 and
Figure 7-35. The finished labels should be on the right or top of the cables, according to
different cabling methods. The left part of the figures shows the method to affix the label
when the cable is laid vertically, while the right part of the figures shows the method to
affix the label when the cable is laid horizontally.

The label is affixed 2cm from the connector on the signal cable. In special cases, for
example, to avoid cable bent or affecting other cables, other positions are allowed to
affix the labels.
1) Stick the label to the proper position on the cable, fold the narrow part of the label
according to the directions shown in Figure 7-33.

Remove the label from the bottom page, then affix it to the identification plate on the
cable tie. The label should be stuck to the rectangular flute, and should be stuck to only
one side of the identification plate. Make sure to affix the labels on the same side of the
identification plates. The cable ties are bundled at 2cm from the connectors, and other
positions are allowed in special circumstances.

7-30
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 7 Appendix

Cable ties should be bundled on both ends of a cable. After the bundling, the finished
identification plate should be on top of the cable in horizontal cabling, or on the right
side of the cable in vertical cabling. Make sure the label is facing out, as shown in
Figure 7-36.

7.4.5 Information Carried on Labels

I. For signal cables

The two sides of the label affixed on the signal cable carry information about the
location of the ports connected to both ends of the cable, as shown in Figure 7-37.

The information is given like this:


z Area 1 contains the location information of local end of the cable.
z Area 2 (with the mark "TO:") contains the location information of the opposite end
of the cable.
z Area 3 has been folded up inside the label.

Area 1 Area 3

Area 2 TO:

Figure 7-37 Printed parts on the label for signal cables

Seen from the cabling end of the equipment, the text part of the label is on the right side
of the cable. The side with “TO:” that is facing outside carries the location information of

7-31
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 7 Appendix

the opposite end; and the other side carries the location information of the local end.
Therefore, the information in Area 1 at one end is the same as the information in Area 2
at the other end of the cable, and vice versa. In other words, the local information at one
end is called the opposite information at the other end.

II. For power cables

Labels for power cables are only affixed on one side of the identification plates. On the
labels, there is information (the part after the mark “TO:”) about the location of the
device on the other end of the cable, like the location of control cabinet, distribution box
or power socket.

7.4.6 Remarks

z When printing/writing and affixing labels, pay attention to keep the labels clean.
z Since the label paper is made of moistureproof and waterproof material, ink-jet
printers and ink pens are forbidden for printing and writing labels.
z Labels should be affixed with good order in alignment.
z Cable ties should be bundled in the same position of power cables, with
identification plates on the same side.
z The positions of “up”, “down”, “right” or “left” are all based on the viewpoint of the
engineering person who is working on the label.

7.4.7 Engineering Labels for External Cables of Alarm Box

The external cables of alarm box are connected with the first subscriber cabinet of each
row (used for power distribution). Labels pasted on the first cabinet of each row should
indicate which equipment is using the access terminal. Labels are not needed on the
equipment side unless there is special requirement. In this case, only Area 2 of the
label should be filled in.

Table 7-15 shows the information on the labels of alarm box external cables.

Table 7-15 Information on labels affixed to the external cables of alarm box

Content Meaning Example


M: The cabinets going from front to back (in a row) in the
machine room are numbered from A to Z.
MN: serial number of the
MN cabinet in the machine N: The cabinets going from left to right (in a column) are
room numbered from 01 to 99.
For example, A01 is the cabinet in Row A and Column 01.

7-32
Installation Manual
SmartAX MA5100 Multi-service Access Module Chapter 7 Appendix

Note:
Generally, the above numbering method is enough to identify the position of a specific cabinet. If cabinets
are installed in a back-to-back manner, the facing direction of the cabinet must be specified, the numbering
method like MNO is used. Here, “O” means the direction of the cabinet, which can be “A” or “B”. On the
cable labels described below, this numbering method is used, unless otherwise stated.

The label on the alarm cable carries simple information, and only part of the text area
needs to be filled in. It is recommended to keep the whole length of the label instead of
cutting out the blank area.

Figure 7-38 shows a label on the alarm cable, on which “A01” indicates that the alarm
cable is connected from the first cabinet to the cabinet on Row A, Column 01 in the
machine room.

7.4.12 Engineering Labels for Power Cables

I. Labels for DC Power Cables

The labels are affixed to the DC cables that provide power for the cabinets, and the
protection grounding cables, including the -48V, PGND, and BGND cables. The labels
for DC power cables are affixed to one side of the identification plates on cable ties.
1) Meaning of the label
Table 7-22 shows the information carried on the labels for the DC power cables:

Table 7-22 Information on labels affixed to the DC power cables

Content Meaning

MN(BC)--48V1 MN(BC): BC is written right under MN.

MN(BC)--48V2 On the loaded cabinet side, only MN is used to identify the cabinet.

MN(BC)-BGND On the power cabinet side, MN identifies the row and column number of the
power distribution equipment like the control cabinet and distribution box,
BC identifies the row and column number of the -48V connecter (if there is
no row number or column number, or the connecter can be identified
MN(BC)-PGND without them, BC can be omitted). BGND and PGND have no row and
column number for identification.

The label only carries location information about the opposite equipment, the control
cabinet or the distribution box, while information of the local end is not necessary. Table
7-22 lists the information of two -48V power supplies on the label. The information for
other DC voltages (such as 24V, 60V) should be given in similar methods.
2) Example of the label
Make sure that labels are affixed in correction direction. That is, after the cable ties are
bundled onto the cable, the identification plates with the labels should face up, and the
text on the labels in the same cabinet should be in the same direction, as shown in
Figure 7-45.

Figure 7-45 Example of the labels on the DC power cable

In Figure 7-45, (1) indicates the label on the loaded cabinet side, which carries the
information about the position of the cable on the power distribution box. (2) indicates
the label on the distribution box side, which carries the information about the position of
the cable on the loaded cabinet side.

On the loaded cabinet side, the label marked with “A01/B08--48V2” on the cable
indicates that the cable is -48V2 DC supply, which is from the 8th connecter on the
second row of -48V bus bar in the cabinet on Row A, and Column 1 in the machine
room.

On the distribution box side, the label marked with “B03--48V2” indicates that the cable
is -48V2 DC supply, which is from the loaded cabinet on Row B, Column 03 in the
machine room.

Note:
z In the power distribution box (or the first power cabinet of a row in the transmission machine room),
every terminal block on the -48V connector bar has a numeric identification. For example, in the above
label of “A01/B08--48V2”, “08” (or sometimes “8”) is the numeric identification of the terminal block.
z PGND and BGND are two copper bars, on which the terminal blocks are short-circuited, therefore
which terminal is connected makes no difference. It is only necessary to give the row and column of
the power distribution box, instead of giving the specific serial number of the terminal block on the
copper bar. For example, if the label on the loaded cabinet side is “A01-BGND”, it means that the
power cable is a BGND that connects BGND copper bar in the power distribution box on Row A,
Column 01 in the machine room. Information on the labels for PGND cables should be given in the
similar way.

II. Labels for AC Power Cables

The labels are affixed to the AC cables that provide power for the cabinets, and the
protection grounding cables, including the 110V/220V AC, PGND, and BGND cables.
The 110V/220V AC cables and related PGND and BGND cables are covered with
insulating sheath, so the labels only need to contain the words of “AC" and the cabinet
number. The labels for AC power cables are affixed to one side of the identification
plates on cable ties.
1) Meaning of the label
Table 7-23 shows the information carried on the labels for the AC power cables.

Table 7-23 Information on labels affixed to the AC power cables

Content Meaning
MN: serial number of the cabinet or the socket where the power is led in
The location of the socket is marked out according to onsite situation. If the sockets can
MN-AC be identified by row number and column number, they can be numbered following the
same rule for the cabinets. If the sockets cannot be identified by rows and columns,
specify the detailed locations to avoid confusing with other sockets.

The label only carries location information about the opposite equipment and the power
socket, while information of the local end is not necessary.
2) Example of the label
Make sure that labels are affixed in correction direction. That is, after the cable ties are
bundled onto the cable, the identification plates with the labels should face up, and the
text on the labels in the same cabinet should be in the same direction, as shown in
