Shelf Overview

ATCA Chassis

The 14-slot ATCA chassis conforming to the PICMG 3.0 specification is detailed below. The chassis has a dual star backplane with up to two Shelf Managers, fans, fan controllers, filters and power conditioning modules.

Shelf Manager

The 14-slot chassis has bussed IPMBs and is designed to work with Shelf Managers that are located in the dedicated Shelf Manager slots. The Shelf Manager also contains the Fan Controller for the three pluggable fan trays. If only one Shelf Manager is installed is should be installed in the upper slot.

Fan Trays

Three modular fan trays can easily be removed after removing the fan tray cover at the front of the shelf. The display module at the front of the fan tray provides a blue hot-swap LED, amber and red alarm LEDs and a green fan-try-good LED as well as a hot swap push button.

Shelf Alarm Panel

Note: This functionality is not currently supported within the HiperMAX system.

Power Distribution

There are two pluggable PEMs (Power Entry Modules). Each PEM provides power terminals for a

25A power feed ( -48V and VRTN). Internally to the PEM these are split into four separate fused feeds, each of these four feeds is protected by two 30A fuses. The minimum input voltage is -40.5VDC and the maximum is -57.0VDC.

Blades

Two blades are currently available. SDR Blade for the software defined radio and Switch for the Ethernet Switch.


5

ESD Protection

The ESD Wrist Strap terminal is located on the upper front side of the shelf, and must be used prior to working on any part or electronic component.

Installation Checks

Before inserting any blades, turn on the -48V and measure the voltage on the PEMs. Note when the chassis are powered the fans go to full speed and then slow down once the Shelf Manager control loop kicks in. If the -48V is connected the wrong way the chassis will not power up.


6

Install 14 Slot ATCA Shelf

This procedure should be used in conjunction with the Schroff 14 Slot ATCA Manual 11596-006

The 13U shelf can be fitted in a standard ATCA Rack or into a standard 19" Rack using adapters.

1. Place Shelf supports at the height of the base of the ATCA Shelf into the sides of the ATCA rack. Fixing the supports will be dependant on ATCA Rack used.

2. Slide the shelf into position and secure into the front of the rack with eight retaining M6

screws and nylon washers.

Shelf Grounding

The grounding for the shelf is via two M6 studs in the lower right hand corner of the shelf. A lug for 6mm green/yellow cable is provided with the shelf. The lug should be crimped with the Panduit CT-720 installation tool with a CD720-1-blue P24 die or Thomas & Betts part no.54205UF.


7

Shelf Alarm Panel (SAP)

The shelf alarm panel is usually fitted to the top left or top right of the chassis. It provides two serial connection ports, alarm indication and an interface to Telco alarm systems.

Note: This functionality is not currently supported within the HiperMAX system.

Shelf Manager

Location

The shelf manager location is dependant on the switch position in the shelf. Unless the shelf manager is placed in the correct slot communication is not possible with the switch using the shelf manager. If the switch is in position 7 then the shelf manager should be in position 1 and if the switch is in position 8 then the shelf manager should be in position 2.

Power

Hazardous voltage!

Before working ensure that the power is removed from the power connection cables. When the system is powered on, do NOT touch

the power terminals.

48 Volt Breakers and Distribution

DC Feeds should be provided as follows:

The Shelf, SCRTs and GPS can be powered using a regular telecommunication power supply of -

48VDC with a VDC return. The specified voltage range is from -40.5 VDC to -57.0 VDC.

ATCA Shelves

2 supply feeds per shelf. Each supply should be fed from a separate breaker.

GPS

2 supply feeds per shelf. Each supply should be fed from a separate breaker.

SCRT

1 supply feed per SCRT

DC Feeds to PEM Modules

Warning!

14 slot Chassis: Although there are fuses in the power entry circuit of the Shelf, the power lines have to be

protected on rack level with 80A breakers.

5 slot Chassis: Although there are fuses in the power entry circuit of the Shelf, the power lines have to be protected on rack level with 30A breakers.

1. Run 16mm2 blue and black DC supply and return cables from the 48 volt breakers to the PEM modules and terminate on lugs.

2. Protect exposed part with a rubber sleeve as shown below. Label as required.

3. Before applying power to PEM fit the transparent protective cover over the terminals.

4. Before inserting any blades, turn on the -48V and measure the voltage on the PEMs. If the -48V is connected the wrong way the chassis will not power up.


20

Power Entry Modules

Power Entry Modules

Two pluggable redundant Power Entry Modules (PEMs) are located at the front bottom side of

the shelf immediately below the fans. Each PEM provides power terminals for a 80A power feed. The shelf supports redundant power supplies but the two supplies should be independently powered. Each power feed to the PEM consists of a –48 VDC cable and its corresponding return cable.


21

Fibre Cables and Cable Management

Fibre Cabling

Fibre Termination Shelf

The SDR blade is connected by fibre optic cable to the SCRT. The SDR blade has a SFP fibre optic transceiver with a duplex LC connector. The LC connector is not rated for outdoor use so there is a transition bulkhead to LC adaptor. This is mounted within the ATCA Rack enclosure below the GPS unit. An IP68 connector plugs into the bulkhead and runs outdoors to the

antenna where the second IP68 connector connects to the antenna.

Cable Installation

General Rules for Fibre Cabling

Outdoor cables

1. Keep the protective cap on the ODC connector until it is to be connected.

ODC Connector

2. Once the protective cap is removed take care not to contaminate the connector with dust, sand, liquid etc.

3. Do not exceed the bend radius of the cable (25mm) at any time during installation, storage or in use.

4. Do not tie wrap the cable tightly – use the recommended tie wraps (velcro) for patch

cables and Milli-Tie cable ties for cable from fibre termination shelf to the SCRT.

Patch Cables

Note: When running cables (Ethernet; OBSAI; GPS Control; and SMA cables for GPS 1PPS & 10MHz) from the front of all blades (SDR and/or Switch), Shelf Manager and SAP it is important that the cables run directly up and down the length of the card and not across the face of other cards. This is important in order to ensure that individual blades can be inserted and removed without interfering with the cabling to other blades in the shelf. When running any cable along the ATCA shelf cable management tray it is important to leave enough slack in the cable to allow the raising and lowering of the cable management tray in order to allow access to the fan modules and air filter tray.

1. Keep the protective cap on the LC connectors until they are connected.

2. Once the protective cap is removed take care not to contaminate the connector with dust, sand, liquid etc.

3. Do not exceed the bend radius of the cable (60mm) at any time during installation, storage or in use.


22

4. Do not tie wrap the cable tightly – use the Velcro ties such as RS Stock Codes 333-9777 (5m reel) or 333-9648 (individual ties) .

5. When inserting the LC connectors to the SFP modules there should be an audible click. Then pull gently to ensure it is connected correctly.

Fibre Cabling

1. Secure the cable termination shelf in the ATCA rack below the GPS using four screws and nylon cup washers.

2. Attach the bulkhead interface by passing through the hole from the rear and securing with the large hexagonal nut.

3. Run the ODC Fibre cable from the SCRT to the fibre termination shelf.

4. Secure the cable using Milli-Tie cable ties. (See Cable Ties)

5. Excess cable should be coiled to prevent damage. Do not exceed the bend radius of the cable (25mm).

6. Terminate the fibre cable at the SCRT.

7. Terminate the fibre cable at the rear of the bulkhead interface on the cable terminating shelf. Label with SCRT Id.

8. Run a patch cable from the cable termination shelf to the SDR blade. Support the cable using the cable tray (see Cable Tray).

9. Loop excess cable in the clips at the side of the rack. Avoid sharp bends in the fibre (60mm bend radius).

10. The fibre should secured and be attached to the cable tray using velcro ties.


23

Cable Ties

Outdoor Cables

Airspan recommends that cables should be secured with Milli-Tie cables as these are designed to

prevent over-tightening of cable ties. Over-tightening of cable ties may causes damage and degrade system performance.

The Milli-Tie can be used to secure cables in the same manner as normally used for nylon straps. The steps below show the basic use of the product.

A Single Basic Wrap

Place the Mille-Tie around the target, and thread the tongue through the last LARGE aperture in the rearmost cell.

Pull or slide the Mille-Tie onto the target. Note that the Mille-Tie stretches to cushion the installation.

Release the tension when snug, then cut and remove any excess strip. Always cut through the square sections, not the wider cells.


24

Mille-Tie is very efficient, and simply gets a little shorter after each use. The remaining strip can be kept and used again and again.

Just keep repeating the same basic fitting procedure until the whole Mille-Tie is used up.


25

Blades

Install HiperMAX SDR Blade

Danger of electrostatic discharge! Static electricity can harm delicate components inside the shelf. An ESD wrist strap must be worn before

exchanging any part or electric component! The ESD wrist strap terminal (4 mm banana jack) is located at the upper front side of the shelf.

Note: For instructions on board insertion removal and replacement see Board

Insertion/Removal/Replacement

The SDR blade is designed to plug into an ATCA chassis. The SDR‟s architecture is based on configurable elements to allow for changes in specification i.e. software defined radio.

The SDR blade transports data over a fibre optic connection to the transceiver using OBSAI RP3-01 interface running at 768Mbps for the SCRT and 3.072Gbps for the MCRT.

Install Ethernet Switch

Danger of electrostatic discharge! Static electricity can harm delicate components inside the Shelf. An ESD wrist strap must be worn before exchanging any part or electric component! The ESD Wrist Strap Terminal (4 mm banana jack) is located at the upper front side of the Shelf.

Note The ATCA Ethernet switch from Airspan is optional and is normally only supported by in the 14 slot ATCA shelf. 5 slot systems will be supplied with an external rack mount Ethernet VLAN switch with connections to the SDR cards via 100baseT front panel ports.

The SDR blade has two 100BaseT RJ-45 connectors on the front panel, the Ethernet signals are also routed over the backplane to the two centre slots of the ATCA shelf. This allows Ethernet to be passed to an external switch or to the ATCA based Ethernet switch.

Install ATCA Ethernet switch

This describes the installation of the Airspan ATCA Ethernet Switch. The Ethernet switch card is placed in physical slot 7 (logical slot 1) of 14 slot chassis.

Connection to the network infrastructure is via ports 17-22 on the front panel using a suitable patch cable. The port supports 1Gbit Ethernet operation for which at least a CAT5e cable is required.

Using a Network cable connect the designated port on the front of the switch blade to the network.

Blade Insertion/Removal/Replacement

Danger of electrostatic discharge! Static electricity can harm delicate components inside the Shelf. An ESD wrist strap must be worn before exchanging any part or electric component! The ESD Wrist Strap Terminal (4 mm banana jack) is located at the upper front side of the Shelf.

Board Insertion

1. To insert the blades – engage the “hooks” on both handles, and rotate both handles simultaneously towards the face of the blade to force the blade back into the chassis.

2. Secure blade by tightening screws top and bottom.

3. Pinch the spring lever to raise the finger and push hot swap handle home through the faceplate. Release the spring lever to lower and retain the handle. Failure to do this will erode the plastic and permit the handle to release easily.


31

Board Removal / Hot Swapping

Note: GPS 10M and 1Hz connections. The 10M and 1Hz should not be removed from a live

system. If the primary or secondary GPS SDRs are to be removed the hot swap handle on the SDR should be activated, once the blue light is on (not flashing) the GPS cables can be removed.

1. When a card is to be replaced, release the hot swap handle by rotating the upper part of the handle to the position shown in Figure 2 below.

Figure 1: Hot Swap Handle: Normal

Figure 2: Hot Swap Handle: Released (Hot Swap Initiated)

2. The H/S blue light flashes – when it stops flashing and is permanently on the board can be removed by unscrewing the top and bottom screws and rotating both upper and lower handles forward to disengage card.

GPS

Install GPS Receiver

Overview

For TDD and smart antenna operation the base stations need to be locked to GPS timing. The ATCA shelf has a synchronisation clock interface that is connected to all 14 blades in the Shelf.

The GPS reference is generated by the GPS shelf. Each SDR blade locks onto the 10MHz signal

to align with the GPS clock. The GPS module outputs 10MHz(10M) and 1pps (1Hz) signals.

The SDR blades are able to operate in stand alone mode and have a GPS input on the front panel. In order to allow clock redundancy, the GPS signals are fed to two blades. The SDRs that have GPS connected are selected via Netspan – one is selected as the master the other as standby. The master SDR blade drives the 10MHz GPS clock signal onto the backplane signal CLK3A. The standby blade drives the GPS clock onto CLK3B. Each SDR card in the system monitors CLK3A and CLK3B. One of these is selected to drive the boards PLL and derive the clocks. If one of the SDR boards fail or the GPS is unplugged or the blade is removed, the SDR blades will then switch to the other clock source. If both CLK3A and CLK3B fail then the PLLs free run.

Installation

The GPS shelf is currently available as a standard 2u 19inch shelf. It is usual to place the GPS receiver at the top of the rack.

Installation Steps

Note: When running cables (Ethernet; OBSAI; GPS Control; and SMA cables for GPS 1PPS & 10MHz) from the front of all blades (SDR and/or Switch), Shelf Manager and SAP

it is important that the cables run directly up and down the length of the card and not across the face of other cards. This is important in order to ensure that individual blades can be inserted and removed without interfering with the cabling to other blades in the shelf. When running any cable along the ATCA shelf cable management tray it is important to leave enough slack in the cable to allow the raising and lowering of the cable management tray in order to allow access to the fan modules and air filter tray.

Secure the shelf in the rack using screws into the cage nuts (Screws and nuts not provided by Airspan.)
