Chapter 4 Using the S1000C This chapter describes how the S1000C works at a high-level, and provides maintenance guidelines. • How the S1000C works on page 4-1 • How data goes over the Internet on page 4-4 • Using the External GPS Antenna on page 4-5 • Maintenance on page 4-6 How the S1000C works The S1000C is a small cell base station with a radio unit that is similar to a cell tower radio.
Chapter 4 Using the S1000C Broadband connection The S1000C connects to an Operator’s network through a broadband Internet connection. Connection speed The S1000C’s actual transmission speed is only as fast as the maximum broadband connection speed. Internet congestion, the number of users on the provider’s network, and other factors can decrease the actual broadband connection speed. Individual bandwidth needs vary per customer. CommScope recommends a minimum of 3 Mbps downstream and 1.
Chapter 4 Using the S1000C Figure 4-1. S1000C internal view S1000C (internal view) Discovery and information exchange The S1000C WAN port is connected to a switch to the network backhaul. The cFAP board’s WAN port is connected to the S1000 board’s LAN port. The S1000C FAP broadcasts its presence on its LAN port from boot up if CSFB to cFAP is enabled and the PairedRefCellId parameter is configured. 2 The cFAP device listens on the WAN port for broadcast messages.
Chapter 4 Using the S1000C How data goes over the Internet LTE data and voice traffic passes between the S1000C and the Internet over the broadband connection device attached to the WAN port of the S1000C. Services and applications provided by the ISP, such as Internet browsing, make use of this path. Voice traffic is switched internally to the 3G network. The S1000’s internal WiFi router generates signals on 2.4G and 5G modes.
Chapter 4 Using the S1000C Using the External GPS Antenna Use the external GPS antenna if the internal antenna of your S1000C does not work (indicated by a solid red GPS LED for more than 2 hours). Connect the external GPS antenna to your device's GPS connection port. If you use the optional GPS antenna: • Place the external GPS antenna horizontally on a flat surface as close to a window as possible. The antenna works best in an open area where it can easily pick up signals.
Chapter 4 Using the S1000C Maintenance With normal use, S1000C is maintenance-free. Follow the recommendations below to ensure that it runs optimally. Ventilation The S1000C has ventilation slots that work best if you don’t block the flow of air to them. For desk mounted devices, keep the device at least 2 inches (5 cm) from walls and other surfaces to ensure proper air flow. NOTE For wall mounted devices, keep the a 6 inch (15 cm) clearance above and below the device.
Chapter 5 Troubleshooting This chapter contains tips and procedures to help you troubleshoot your S1000C.
Chapter 5 Troubleshooting 4 Wait 4 minutes. 5 Plug your broadband connection device into an electrical outlet. TIP You may want to consult the documentation of your broadband connection device for any special procedures for connecting a device directly to your broadband connection device. DRAFT If the WAN LED turns solid red after 15 minutes, call Customer Support as described in Getting help on page 5-19. 5-2 913114 1.5.
Chapter 5 Troubleshooting Resetting the S1000C The S1000C has 2 reset buttons on the bottom of the unit. If your S1000C operates properly for an extended period and the WAN LED on the 4G side of the device suddenly starts blinking red, the S1000 may have a problem requiring a reset. To reset the S1000 board, push the Reset button for at least 10 seconds. If the WAN LED on the 3G side starts blinking red, the CFAP may have a problem requiring a reset.

Chapter 5 Troubleshooting FAQs Why does the S1000C need a GPS antenna? The S1000C has a GPS antenna so that it can: • Synchronize properly with the rest of the Operator’s network. • Determine and select the correct radio frequencies available in your area so that the S1000C uses the correct ones. Why does the S1000C need an external GPS antenna? Your device needs the external antenna only when the internal GPS antenna cannot lock on to sufficient satellite signals.
Chapter 5 Troubleshooting I have a DSL modem and cannot connect to the Internet If you are using a DSL modem and your S1000C cannot connect to the Internet, you may need to enter your Internet service provider (ISP) account user name and password so that the device can connect to the Internet. See Adding your ISP User Name and Password on page 3-14. You may also need to adjust the WiFi settings. See Configuring WiFi service on page 3-5.
Chapter 5 Troubleshooting Enter User name ‘admin’ and Password ‘admin’. Click Log In. 6 In the Advanced tab, click Qos Setup. 7 Verify that the Total Uplink Bandwidth value is large enough to support the value recorded from the uplink test. You will need to consider the rate and priority assigned to the LANTC traffic class. DRAFT 5 5-18 913114 1.5.
Chapter 5 Troubleshooting 8 If the problem persists, check the QoS setting in your home router. Ensure that the S1000 has the highest priority. See the home router’s user manual for instructions. 9 If the problem persists, contact your Internet Service Provider. Getting help If you need help with your S1000C, contact Customer Care.
