CrossFire HP – All-Digital Transport System User Guide 6.4.1. • Optical Interface Connection Single Optical Fibre-module Figure 6- 13 shows that when using a pair of single optical fibre-modules, the wavelength of the two modules should be different, for example, 1271nm & 1331nm. See Table 51 for the optical fibre module corresponding to each port. When the optical module is unplugged or not synchronized, the indicators are red as shown in the left pair of indicators in Figure 6- 15.
CrossFire HP – All-Digital Transport System User Guide The optical connector unit includes an optical module and optical fibre. Figure 6- 14 shows that when using a double optical fibre-module, the optical transmitter and optical receiver should correspond to each other. In other words, the optical transmitter of optical module A should correspond to the optical receiver of optical module B and the receiver of A should correspond to the transmitter of B.
CrossFire HP – All-Digital Transport System User Guide Figure 6- 15 Optical SYNC Status 6.4.2. AU connections Prior to attempting the AU connections, read Section 3 thoroughly. The AU has eight optical ports, designated by eight silk-screened images: “AU1”, “AU2”, “OP1/AU”, “OP2”, “OP3”, “OP4”, “OP5” and “OP6”. The ports “OP1~OP6” all have the same functionality, providing connections to lower level EUs or RUs.
CrossFire HP – All-Digital Transport System User Guide The EU has 8 optical ports and 6 electrical ports. The optical “SLAVE” port should be connected to the AU or upper EU and the optical “MASTER” port should be connected in a cascading manner to a lower EU in a daisy chain. (Refer to the networking definition of a daisy chain.) The OP1~OP6 ports have the same functionality and are all used for connections to RUs.

CrossFire HP – All-Digital Transport System User Guide 7. System Debugging Setup After installation and connection, power the devices on. At this point, it is strongly recommended that a laptop be connected to the Master AU to enable system debugging. Check each device’s working status. The optical interface indicator LEDs should be green and stay lit and the STATUS indicator LEDs should be green and flashing slowly. Now, start the online debugging according to Figure 7- 1 and Figure 7- 2.
CrossFire HP – All-Digital Transport System User Guide Connection & Query Status Alarm Parameter Configuration Com pletion Figure 7- 2 EU Debugging Procedures 7.1. Network Management System Setup for SNMP The site number must be set using the WebOMT on the Master AU before connecting to the network management system (NMS). The NMS should identify devices by their unique site number. Network parameters also need to be set up for the specific network.
CrossFire HP – All-Digital Transport System User Guide Figure 7- 3 NMS Setup 7.2. Channel Properties Configuration According to the different base station operating frequency bands for each operator, select the passive RF modules for the AU and active RF modules for the RU with the corresponding frequency band and set the channel properties in the WebOMT of the Master AU. The limits of the uplink and downlink operating frequency bands correspond to the effective RF range of the selected RF modules.
CrossFire HP – All-Digital Transport System User Guide (See step 1 in Figure 7- 4.) 4. Set the uplink and downlink centre frequencies and the bandwidth for signals 1, 2, 3 and 4. (See step 2 in Figure 7- 4.) 5. Click Set to validate the parameter values. (See step 4 in Figure 7- 4.) Ensure the value of CH1~4 info is valid valid. 6. In the Public Parameters section, set AU CH Info Update to “Update”. (See step 3 in Figure 7- 4.
CrossFire HP – All-Digital Transport System User Guide 7.3. Channel Gain Adjustment After setting the channel properties, access the RF signals. In the CrossFire, the nominal downlink input power of the AU is 0dBm and the maximum allowable input power is 10dBm. Therefore, before accessing the RF signals, estimate the signal power.

Software Upgrad Upgrade The Master AU consolidates the management of software upgrades for the entire system and saves the last software package for the AU, EU and RU. Slave devices compare the local software with that saved in the Master AU at run time. If the software version is different, the slave device will start the software upgrade progress and reset automatically after the upgrade is complete.
