About This Chapter
The RRU is a remote radio unit. The RRU has the following functions: l

RRU Equipment

Receives RF signals from the antenna system, down-converts the signals to IF signals, and then transmits them to the BBU or the macro NodeB after amplification, analog-to-digital conversion, digital down-conversion, matched filtering, and Digital Automatic Gain Control (DAGC). Receives downlink baseband signals from the BBU or the macro NodeB, forwards data received from its cascaded RRU, performs filtering and digital-to-analog conversion, and up-converts RF signals to the transmitting frequency band. Multiplexes RX and TX signals over RF channels and filters the RX signals and TX signals. This enables the RX signals and TX signals to share the same antenna path.

2.1 Exterior of the RRU This describes the exterior of the RRU that features a modular design. 2.2 Panels of the RRU The RRU has a bottom panel, a cabling cavity panel, and an LED panel. 2.3 LEDs of the RRU All the LEDs of the RRU are positioned on the RRU panel, indicating the running status of the RRU.

3.5 AISG Multi-Wire Cable for the RRU


The AISG multi-wire cable is 5 m long. It is connected to the RRU and Remote Control Unit (RCU) to transfer control signals from the base station to the RET antenna.
NOTE

The RCU is a driving motor used for the phase shifter in the RET antenna. It receives the control commands from the base station and executes the commands to drive the step motor, which drives the phase shifter in the antenna through the gearing to adjust the tilt angle of the antenna.

Exterior
The AISG multi-wire cable has a DB9 waterproof connector at one end and an AISG standard female connector at the other end, as shown in Figure 3-9.

NOTE

l When the distance between the RRU and the antenna is within 14 m, one end of the RF jumper is connected to the ANT port at the bottom of the RRU, and the other end is connected to the antenna. l When the distance between the RRU and the antenna exceeds 14 m, the RF jumper is connected to the feeder prior to the RRU and antenna. If the RF jumper is provided by the customer, the length of the RF jumper should not exceed 2 m.

The RF jumper has a DIN male connector on one end and a connector made based on field requirements on the other end. Figure 3-11 shows the RF jumper where both ends are DIN male connectors. Figure 3-11 RF jumper

3.8 Interconnect Jumper for the RRU


The interconnect jumper for the RRU connects the RX_IN/OUT ports of two RRUs, and transmits the RF signals between the RRUs in the same cell.

About This Chapter

Auxiliary Devices of the RRU

The auxiliary devices of the RRU consist of the Outdoor Cable Conversion Box (OCB) and the Indoor Floor installation support (IFS06). 4.1 OCB The Outdoor Cable Conversion Box (OCB) interconnects cables of different core diameters. The power cables shipped with the RRU cannot support long-distance power transfer. Therefore, when the power supply is far from the equipment, the OCB can be used to connect the power cable of the RRU and a cable with a large core diameter, which can transfer power for a long distance. 4.2 IFS06 The Indoor Floor installation Support (IFS06) is used for installing RRUs indoors.
