Chapter 4 Subracks
Function Description
Communications Provides various communication interfaces, such as RS232, RS485, and

MODEM, to accomplish centralized monitoring.
Composition
The B201 power subrack is designed as a standard 19-inch subrack with a height of 5 U.
It is composed of a power distribution unit, a rectifier set, and a monitoring unit, see Figure
4-2.
Figure 4-2 B201 Power Subrack
SN Name Description
1 Power distribution unit The AC and DC power distribution units are installed in an
integrated chassis before delivery.
2 Monitoring unit Located at the utmost right of the chassis, provides signal
sampling, message collection and analysis, signal forwarding,
and alarm functions.
The power system can operate without the monitoring unit,
but will fail to provide the triple remote function (telemetering,
remote signaling, and remote control) and the batteries will
remain in the floating charge status.
3 Rectifier set Performs AC/DC conversion. In full configuration, the B201

power subrack can be installed with four rectifiers.
1. Power distribution unit
The power distribution unit integrates AC power distribution and DC power distribution.
The AC power distribution unit accomplishes the access, protection and distribution of
AC power supply. The DC power distribution unit accomplishes DC output, access of
storage batteries, and load protection.
For a description of the air switches and surge arresters on the power distribution unit
panel, refer to Table 4-1.
4-3

Table 4-1 Air Switches and Surge Arresters
ID Component Description
AC Input AC input air switch Controls the connection and disconnection of the AC
input, and provides overload protection. Because there is
no switch for the AC input for rectifier, the rectifier starts
working when this switch is ON.
Surge Class C surge Provides class-C lightning protection for the system.
Arrester arrester Normally, the arrester window is green. When the arrester
(Class C) is damaged by a lightning strike, the window turns red.
The lightning protector is hot swappable.
Surge Class D surge Provides class-D lightning protection for the system.
Arrester arrester Normally, the arrester window is green. If the arrester is
(Class D) damaged by a lightning strike, the window turns red. The
lightning protector is hot swappable.
DC Output Air switch of the DC Controls the connection and disconnection of the -48 V
output load DC outputs, and provides overload protection for each
DC output.
Battery Input Battery input air Distributes power to the four battery packs, controls
switch the connection and disconnection of the batteries, and
provides overload protection.
2. Rectifier set
The B201 power subrack can be configured with a maximum of four rectifiers, which
can form a power system with a maximum of 200 A output. The rectifier is designed
with a drawer structure and is hot swappable.
Table 4-2 describes the statuses of each LED indicator on the rectifier panel.

2. If an exceptions occurs on a rectifier, the alarm indicator is lit.
3. If a rectifier is faulty, the fault indicator is lit.
4. If the power indicator and the alarm indicator flash simultaneously, it indicates that the monitoring
center on the NMS is downloading programs for the rectifier.
Monitoring unit
The monitoring unit provides the following functions:
l Information query
l System control
l Alarm reporting
l Operation logs
l Remote monitoring
Table 4-3 describes the statuses of each LED indicator on the monitor unit panel.

ALM Fault indicator Red l ON: A fault occurs to the system, for example, the
AC input fails, or a rectifier is faulty.
l OFF: There is no fault.
4.3 DCPD6 subrack

The DCPD6 subrack is used to provide power for the RSU or RRU in a BC8910B or
RC8910B cabinet.
It uses a retardant metal shell and the protection level is IP2X. The cabling is done in the
front and does not require additional space.

Tip:
If the jumper cap is removed, it indicates 0 in binary mode or OFF. If the jumper is inserted,
it indicates 1 in binary mode or ON.
With the jumpers on the SA/SE board, you can configure the transmission mode over the
uplink/downlink E1, uplink/downlink T1, and BDS_ID cascaded connection. Figure 5-23
shows the locations of the jumpers on an SA/SE board.
Figure 5-23 SA/SE Jumpers
Caps for MODE_ABIS and BDS_ID jumpers on the SA/SE board need to be inserted. The
configuration principles are as follows:
l The MODE_ABIS jumper is used to set the uplink/downlink long/short line mode and
E1/T1 mode.
à The ZXSDR BS8900B uses the short link mode, that is, no jumper caps on the
higher two bits MODE_ABIS<3,2>.
à The lower bits MODE_ABIS<1,0> are used to set the E1/T1 mode. For details,
refer to Table 5-13.

6.3 Transmission Cables

6.3.1 Ethernet Cable
Functions
l When the base station and its controller use IP, the Ethernet cable serves as the
transmission media at the Abis/Iub interface. In this case, a straight-through cable is
used.
l When the system is logged in through the LMT, the Ethernet cable serves as the O&M
cable to connect the maintenance network interface of the base station. In this case,
a straight-through or crossover cable can be used.
External View
By default, the ZXSDR BS8900B uses outdoor super category-5 Ethernet cables. Both
ends are crimped with RJ45 connectors, see Figure 6-9.
