Each CTBM is configured with seven rows of blind mate plugs. The first and third
connectors of each blind mate plug from top to bottom are connected with the +27 V
power cable and GND cable respectively.
The two ends of the 10M clock RF cable connect to the 10M clock interfaces of the
baseband subrack and RF subrack respectively. In this way, the synchronization clock
signals of the baseband subrack can be sent to the RF subrack to keep the clocks of
the baseband subrack and RF subrack synchronized.
The RS485 serial ports of the two RF subracks are connected by serial port cables.
They function to monitor the running status of each carrier.
2.1.3 Power Supply Subrack

The power supply subrack positions under the combined subrack. It is used for
configuring the PSU (for example, DC/DC unit). The DC/DC unit provides the +27 V
power to the BTS3606, and forms the power supply subsystem together with the power
distribution unit, lightning protection unit, and monitoring unit.
All PSUs in the power supply subrack transfer power and signals through the
Compact-BSC Power Backplane Module (CPBM) at the back of the power supply
subrack. They support Online Insertion and Removal (OIR).

2.2.3 Power Supply Subrack

The power supply subrack is installed between the fan subrack and RF subrack at the
lower part of the cBTS3612 cabinet. It serves as a part of the power supply
subsystem.Each power supply module has its own built-in monitoring unit. These units
are connected on the backplane. They report information to the BTS Transceiver
Module (BTRM) through the universal monitoring bus, and then to the BCKM to
implement power management and monitoring.
I. Outline
Figure 2-16 shows the outline of a power supply subrack.
2-13

Chapter 2 Subracks
II. Configuration
When the -48 V power input is adopted, the power supply subrack needs to be

The BASB consists of connectors and board slots. Connectors include a test board slot,
the input connector of the +24 V power/GND, and three DB37 D-connectors. Power
input connectors and D-connectors are all crimped devices.
Note:
Except the power supply subrack, all the subracks of the BTS3612A use the backplanes of the BTS3606.
For details, see descriptions of BTS3606 subrack backplanes.

The combined subrack comprises two carrier subracks and one duplexer subrack.
The two carrier subracks are used to configure carrier units (A group of BTRM and
BHPA forms a carrier unit). Each subrack can be configured with one RLDU.
The duplexer subrack is located between the upper and lower carrier subracks. It
is used to configure duplexer units (for example, CDU). DFU and DDU can be
configured as needed. In addition, at the right side of the subrack is a lightning
arrester connected to the satellite signal synchronization antenna.

5.4 Outdoor Power Supply Interface Box

The outdoor Power Supply Interface (PSI) box provides the cabinet with single-phase
mains supply and single-phase diesel input, and three-phase mains supply and
three-phase diesel input. It can be mounted on wall or on steel pole.
5.4.1 Structure of the Outdoor Power Interface Box

The outdoor PSI box consists of an enclosure, a mains air breaker, a diesel air breaker
(optional), an air breaker interlock device (optional), and an input/output terminal bar.
Figure 5-16 shows its inner structure.
