Zinwave 2700 DAS – User Manual Issue 1.2  April 2007  © Zinwave Ltd. 2007  Chapter 1  System Description 1.1 Overview The Zinwave 2700 Distributed Antenna System (DAS) is a simple two-stage fiber-optic solution  comprising  a  centrally  located  Hub  Unit  (HU)  and  distributed  Antenna  Units (AU). The Zinwave 2700 DAS is at present the only available system which provides a truly  wideband  solution  utilizing  multimode  fiber  (MMF).  Zinwave’s  technology approach allows the bandwidth of in situ MMF optic cables to be extended sufficiently to  conduct  multiple  radio  frequency  signals,  at  original  carrier  frequency,  over  long distances.   Figure 1-1:  Extended MMF bandwidth using the Zinwave patented technology. 1.2 Key features o  Simple  two-stage  fiber-optic  DAS:  one  Hub  Unit  (HU)  distributes  to  eight Antenna Units (AU) o  Wide frequency range: 370 – 2500 MHz o  Only system to deliver truly broadband solution over multimode fiber (MMF) o  Minimum supported distance of 550 m over OM1, OM2 and OM3 type MMF, in excess of building wiring standard
Zinwave 2700 DAS – User Manual Issue 1.2  April 2007  © Zinwave Ltd. 2007  o  Minimum supported distance of 2000 m over standard SMF o  Dynamically configurable RF signal distribution o  Electronically adjustable signal levels without the need of manual handling o  Hot-pluggable optical transceivers used in HU o  SNMP and CLI based network management 1.3 Architecture The  2700 DAS  system  is  built from  several  basic  8-port  systems. Each  basic  8-port system comprises one 2700 HU and up to eight AU. The AU can be wideband (276X series), band-selective (277X series) or a combination of the two.   Figure 1-2:  Schematic of a basic 8-port 2700 system.   Each basic 8-port system can be connected to four radio transceivers (e.g. BTS, BDA, WLAN  access  point).  The  connections  are  made  via  simplex  connectors.  Duplex connections can be realized through the use of external duplexers. The I/O ports are wideband and accept signals operating in the range 370 – 2500 MHz. The HU is equipped with eight ports which accept analogue optical transceivers in the small  form  pluggable (SFP)  form factor. While following the  industry standard,  these analogue SFP transceivers are proprietary to Zinwave. Ports which are not connected to an AU do not have to be equipped with an SFP module. The SFP modules are connected to the AU via the optical fiber plant. The maximum optical link length for MMF is at least 550 m, provided that a special Zinwave patch-cord is used to connect SFP and AU to the fiber plant. In  the  AU  the  signals  in  both  the  uplink  and  the  downlink  are  amplified,  however without  applying  any  complex  signal  processing.  In  the  downlink  direction  the amplification  is required  to compensate for  the  electrical-to-optical (E/O)  and optical-to-electrical (O/E) conversion losses as well as fiber attenuation. In the uplink direction the amplification is used to optimize the dynamic range of the system. The wideband AUs (276X series) are equipped with two simplex antenna connectors while the band-selective AUs (277X series) are equipped with a single duplex antenna connector.

Zinwave 2700 DAS – User Manual Issue 1.2  April 2007  © Zinwave Ltd. 2007  1.3.1 RF Signal Distribution In the HU a RF signal distribution circuitry is implemented which gives the flexibility to dynamically adjust the routing of radio transceivers to AU. In its default configuration the HU routes each electrical I/O port to two adjacent optical ports. By enabling a set of switches in the circuitry this distribution can be changed to simultaneously route two electrical I/O ports to four optical ports or to route all four electrical I/O ports to all eight optical ports.   Figure 1-3:  Five different possibilities to distribute the input signals. 1.3.2 Signal Level Control The Zinwave 2700 DAS implements a two-stage attenuator based approach to signal level  control.  All  attenuators  are  electronically  switched  and  do  not  require  manual handling. A first  set  of attenuators  is situated  in  the HU  right  at  the  electrical I/O  ports.  These attenuators are intended to balance signal power of different services such that each service covers the same area. A high frequency signal, such as UMTS or WLAN for example,  requires  more  RF  power  than  a  PMR  or  GSM900  signal  for  the  same coverage area. In addition these attenuators allow the HU to be connected to a range of  radio  transceivers  with  different  output  power  values.  A  similar  attenuator  is provided  in the uplink  path  which can  be adjusted  to  establish  link  balance between the uplink and the downlink of the DAS. A second set of attenuators is situated in the AU. These attenuators are intended to adjust  the  cell  size  of  the  specific  AU  and  to  compensate  for  different  optical  loss values. In the uplink direction the attenuator is used to trade-off cell size and minimum coupling loss (MCL).

Zinwave 2700 DAS – User Manual Issue 1.2  April 2007  © Zinwave Ltd. 2007  1.3.3 AU Remote Setup To simplify installation and maintenance and to enhance security, all AU are controlled remotely  via  the  HU.  This  includes  setting  attenuator  values,  enabling  or  disabling overload  protection  and  reading  status  and  alarm  information.  Each  AU  can  be addressed  individually.  The  required  routing  information  for  this  is  obtained  by following the setup-procedure after all units are connected. 1.4 System Components The Zinwave 2700 DAS consists of HU, SFP modules and wideband or band-selective AU.  Apart  from  the  band-selective  AU  all  components  cover  the  frequency  range 370 – 2500 MHz. 1.4.1 Hub Unit (2700) The Zinwave 2700 HU is a 1U high 19” rack mountable device which distributes four electrical ports to eight  SFP ports. The connection to each of the four possible radio transceivers is via two simplex RF connectors (female SMA type) located at the back of the unit. The eight optical ports can be equipped with the Zinwave 2780 SFP optical transceivers. These transceivers are hot-pluggable.  The  HU  features  a  series  of  LED  indicators  on  the  front  of  the  unit,  indicating  the status of each optical link and of the whole system. Control and network management is performed via an SNMP based GUI or via a Command Line Interface (CLI) through a  direct  serial  (RS232)  connection.  The  HU  also  acts  as  a  master  device  when remotely configuring the attached AU. 1.4.2 SFP optical transceiver (278X) The Zinwave 278X SFP optical transceiver comprises a directly modulated DFB laser diode operating at a wavelength of 1.3 µm and a PIN photodiode which is capable of detecting light at this wavelength. In addition a control circuitry is implemented which is  used  for  bias  control,  temperature  compensation  and  status  and  alarm  reporting. The  SFP  module  can  be  used  to  connect  to  both  single  mode  fiber  (SMF)  and multimode fiber (MMF). The SFP module is designed to the mechanical dimensions specified in the SFP-MSA. An  electronic  circuitry  ensures  that  no  damage  occurs  when  mistakenly  plugging  a digital SFP transceiver into one of the Zinwave SFP ports and vice versa. The SFP is equipped  with  an  LC  duplex  connector  which  requires  only  half  the  foot-print  of  the traditionally used SC connector. 1.4.3 Wideband Antenna Units (276X series) The Zinwave 276X series of wideband AU amplify the received optical (downlink) and wireless  (uplink)  signals  and  perform  the  electrical-optical  conversion.  The  units  are designed to operate in the frequency range 370 – 2500 MHz. The  2760  AU  is  equipped  with  a  SFP  port  which  is  populated  with  a  2781  SFP module. The 2765 AU has integrated optics connected to a SC duplex connector on the front panel.  Because  of the  very wide  bandwidth of  the unit,  the  AU  features  two  simplex electrical antenna connectors (female SMA type), one for uplink and one for downlink. It is recommended that patch antennas are used with this class of AU. These units are not  intended  to  be  connected  to  omni-directional  antennas  as  they  do  not  provide sufficient transmit-receive isolation. The wideband AU are powered via PoE (power over Ethernet) according to the IEEE 802.3af standard. Configuration of the AU is remotely via a 2700 HU. The 276X series AU are intended for mounting to a wall or a ceiling.

The 277X AU comprise a 276X wideband AU together with a single-, dual- or tri-band duplexer. The optical interface is identical to that of the 276X series AU. However, the 277X AU features only one duplex electrical antenna connector (female N-type). Because  of  the  filtering  performed  in  the  duplexer,  the  277X  series  AU  can  be operated at higher composite powers than the 276X series AU and they also support installations with omni-directional antennas. The band-selective AUs are powered via PoE (power over Ethernet) according to the IEEE 802.3af standard. Configuration of the AU is remotely via a 2700 HU. The 277X series AUs are intended for mounting to a wall, a ceiling or into a 19” rack. Table 1-2: 277X band selective Antenna Units.

The Ethernet interface supports DHCP. The AUs  are  controlled  through  the  HU  interface.  All  settings  on  the  system  area configured through one of these interfaces, there are no manual controls on the 2700 DAS. In addition  alarm and status information on a range of  system parameters can be obtained and monitored. The  remote  control  supports  SNMP  V2.0.  The  application  ZinConfig  provides  a graphical user interface (GUI) for the control via the Ethernet Interface. The local command line interface (CLI) can be accessed using a terminal application such as HyperTerminal on a MS Windows based computer. Connection is via a 9 pin null- modem.

For details on controlling the 2700 DAS refer Chapter 4 of this guide. To attach the required cables to the Hub Unit follow these steps: o Serial Port: The serial interface connector is a 9 pin sub-D male connector. To connect the HU directly to a computer, use a RS 232 null modem. Connect the RS232 cable to the serial connector, hand tightening the screws to prevent the connector from loosening. o Ethernet  Port:  Connect  the  Ethernet  port  of  the  HU  to  your  network  using  a RJ45  category  5e  patch  cable.  For  further  details  on  how  to  configure  the network interface refer to section 4.3.4.1 of this guide.  CAUTION  Before  connecting  the  Ethernet  port  of  the  hub  unit  make  sure  that  the  network parameters  (IP  address,  subnet  mask,  and  gateway)  on  the  HU  are  properly  set. Failure  to  do  so  may  affect  the  performance  of  the  network.  Contact  your  network administrator if necessary, for valid parameters.
Zinwave 2700 DAS – User Manual Issue 1.2  April 2007  © Zinwave Ltd. 2007   Figure 3-6:  Connection of the RS232 null modem and the RJ45 Ethernet cable.  3.1.4.4 Connecting the RF transceiver   Connection of the RF signal sources (e.g. BDA, BTS, WLAN access point) is via a pair of  simplex  SMF-female  connectors  per  RF  port.  The  ports  are  labeled  1  to  4  for connecting up to four RF transceivers. Connect the ports labeled “IN” to the transmit port  of  the  RF  transceiver  (=  downlink).  Connect  the  ports  labeled  “OUT”  to  the receive ports of the RF transceivers (= uplink).    Figure 3-7:  Connecting a pair of jumper leads from a RF transceiver.  As the 2700 DAS is a broadband system, the connections to the RF transceivers are via  simplex  connectors.  In  cases  where  the  RF  transceiver  has  a  common  duplex connector for uplink and downlink the signals traveling in opposite direction need to be separated. This is done with an external duplexer or circulator.  For  a  larger  system  with  more  than  eight  AU,  the  RF  signals  have  to  be  routed  to several hubs. This is achieved by inserting a passive splitting/combining circuitry.   CAUTION  When  connecting  to  the  SMA  connector  on  the  Hub,  DO  NOT  over  tighten  the connector. Use a dedicated torque wrench pre-set to 0.8 to 1.1 Nm. If a torque wrench is not available, firmly hand-tightening the connector is adequate.  CAUTION  In the US and Canada, only the use of the Cisco® Aironet ®1200 WLAN access point (Model  AIR-AP1231-A-K9)  is  approved  for  connection  to  the  2700  Hub  Unit  for providing WLAN services.
Zinwave 2700 DAS – User Manual Issue 1.2  April 2007  © Zinwave Ltd. 2007   NOTE  Termination of the unused  RF ports with a 50Ω load  is not necessary. It is  however recommended  to  set  all  gain  control  settings  of  the  unused  ports  to  maximum attenuation (refer to section 4.2.6.1 of this guide for directions on how to do this). 3.1.5 Environmental The  environmental  specifications  of  the  HU  for  operation  and  storage  are  listed  in Table 3-5.

Zinwave 2700 DAS – User Manual Issue 1.2  April 2007  © Zinwave Ltd. 2007  3.2 2780/2781 SFP module 3.2.1 Overview The  2780/2781  small  form-factor  pluggable  (SFP)  modules  are  broadband components  (350-2700MHz)  converting  electrical  to  optical  signals  (Transmit)  and optical to electrical signals (Receive). A block diagram of the SFP module is shown in Figure 3-8.   Figure 3-8:  Block diagram of the 2780/2781 SFP module.  The  electrical  input  signal  is  amplified  before  it  is  modulated  onto  the  optical  carrier wave.  The  optical  input  signal  is  directly  routed  to  the  electrical  connector.  A  micro controller is included for control and monitoring purpose. The  2780  SFP  is  designed  to  be  used  in  the  2700  Hub  Unit.  The  2781  SFP  is designed to be used in the 2760 Antenna Unit. While the modules are identical in their design they differ in the rated operating temperature range.  CAUTION  Electrostatic  discharge  (ESD)  preventative  measures  (i.e.  wrist  straps,  use  of  ESD protective  bags)  should  be  taken  when  storing,  transporting  and  handling  SFPs  as voltages in excess of 50V can cause damage to the device.  NOTE  The 2780 and 2781 SFP have an identical form factor. Make sure to insert the 2780 only in the 2700 HU and the 2781 only in the 2760 AU.  3.2.2 Dimensions and Weight The  physical  design  of  the  2780/2781  SFP  module  follows  the  design  of  standard digital SFP transceivers as outlined in the SFP Multi-Source Agreement (MSA).

Zinwave 2700 DAS – User Manual Issue 1.2  April 2007  © Zinwave Ltd. 2007  3.2.3 Ports 3.2.3.1 Electrical port The electrical connection of the SFP is via a push-fit 20-pin connector located at the rear of the module. 3.2.3.2 Optical port The  optical  port  on  the  SFP  module  is  LC  duplex  (according  to  IEC  61754-20). Looking from the front, the optical transmit port is on the left hand side and the optical receive port is on the right hand side.  WARNING  Optical emission can damage  your eye-sight. DO NOT look directly into the transmit port of an active SFP module. 3.2.4 Installation The SFP is a hot pluggable module. To install the SFP in the HU or the AU, the unit does  NOT  need  to  be  powered  down.  The  remaining  system  remains  completely operational and unaffected by plugging or un-plugging a module into an SFP port. To  insert  the  SFP,  hold  the module  by  the  metal  body  and slide it into the designated HU/AU port.  An  audible  click  can  be heard  when  the  SFP  is  fully latched.  Ensure  that  the  de-latch bail is in the upright position (this prevents  accidental  unlatching  of the module).   Figure 3-9:  Picture of fully latched SFP module.  Removal  of  the  SFP  is  achieved by extending the de-latch bail and pulling it away from the unit.   Figure 3-10:  To remove the SFP pull at the de-latch bail.

Zinwave 2700 DAS – User Manual Issue 1.2  April 2007  © Zinwave Ltd. 2007  3.4 277X Antenna Unit – Band specific 3.4.1 Overview o  The 277X AUs are 3U high wall, ceiling or rack mountable units which amplify the received optical signals for transmission over a wireless link (in the case of the downlink signals) and amplify the received wireless signals for transmission over the optical link (in the case of the uplink signals). o  The  277X  AUs utilize the  2765 wideband  AU in its core together  with a band-specific duplexer to suppress undesired frequency bands.   o  Because  of  the  integrated  duplexer,  a  single  antenna  is  required  for  both transmit and receive. o  Adjustable  gain  settings  allow  you  to  define  the  coverage  area  of  each  AU individually.  Control  of  the  AU  is  remotely  via  the  HU.  These  are  controlled remotely via the Hub Unit. o  The  277X  AUs  are  powered  via  IEEE  802.3af  compliant  Power  over  Ethernet (PoE).  Figure 3-21 show a block diagram of the 277X AU.

Make sure that the subnet mask matches that of your network and that the IP address is not already assigned to another device.  EXAMPLE  To configure the network interface with an IP address of 10.10.10.2, a subnet-mask of 255.255.255.0  and  a  gateway  address  of  10.10.10.1  use  the  following  commands: “config ip 10.10.10.2” “config netmask 255.255.255.0” “config gateway 10.10.10.1”.
Zinwave 2700 DAS – User Manual Issue 1.2  April 2007  © Zinwave Ltd. 2007  4.3.4.2 Configuring the network interface via DHCP The network interface can be configured to obtain the relevant parameters via DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). DHCP is enabled by setting the IP address of the  HU  to  0.0.0.0.  This  will  cause  the  HU  to  request  IP  address,  subnet  mask  and gateway address from a DHCP server.  4.3.4.3 Configuring Communities Communities define the user groups for SNMP with read-only access to the system or with read-write access. Define these communities using the “config” command.  EXAMPLE  To  designate  the  read-only  community  “readonly”  and  the  read-write  community “readwrite” use the following commands:  “CONFIG R_COMMUNITY readonly” “config RW_COMMUNITY readwrite”.  4.3.4.4 Setting the Signal Distribution The  routing  of the  RF signals in  the HU  is  controlled via  the commands  “dc22” and “dc44”. As described in section 4.2.6, five different routing combinations are possible. The command “dc22 1” addresses the switch combining RF ports 1 & 2 onto the SFP ports 1 – 4. The command “dc22 2” addresses the switch combining RF ports 2 & 3 onto the SFP ports 5 – 8.The command “dc44” addresses the switch coupling the two other  switches  in  order  to  combine  all  four  RF  ports  onto  all  eight  SFP  ports.  The commands required to set all viable distributions are listed in Table 4-6. Table 4-6: Setting the RF distribution. Distribution  Command 1  Command 2  Command 3 1x2 / 1x2 / 1x2 / 1x2  dc22 1 0  dc22 2 0  dc44 0 2x4 / 1x2 / 1x2  dc22 1 1  dc22 2 0  dc44 0 1x2 / 1x2 / 2x4  dc22 1 0  dc22 2 1  dc44 0 2x4 / 2x4  dc22 1 1  dc22 2 1  dc44 0 4x8  dc22 1 1  dc22 2 1  dc44 1  EXAMPLE  The three commands “dc22 1 1”, “dc22 2 1”  and “dc44 1” entered sequentially set the HU to full distribution where all input RF signals are  present  at all  eight SFP ports.  4.3.4.5 Setting the Attenuator Values in the Hub Unit The attenuators in the HU are controlled using the “DLIA” (DownLink Input Attenuator) and the “ULOA” (UpLink Output Attenuator) commands for the downlink and the uplink, respectively.  The  first  parameter  selects  the  RF  I/O  while  the  second  parameter specifies the required attenuation value.  EXAMPLE  The commands “uloa 2 15” sets the uplink output attenuator of RF I/O # 2 to 15dB.

This  information  is  collected  via  the command “discover”.  NOTE  Control  of  the  attached  AUs  is  not  possible  without  first  running  the  discover command.  4.3.5.2 Manually adding AUs If  for  some  reason  the  “discover”  command  is  not  executed  successfully  the  AUs can  be  manually  added  to  the  system  configuration.  For  this  you  need  the  unique identifier of the AU, the MID number. This is an 8-digit hexadecimal (0-9, A-F) number and can be found on the AU label. The AU is added using the “+addau” command.  EXAMPLE  The command “+addau 1 10F54D9A” adds the AU with the MID 10F54D9A to the SFP port 1.  Adding the same AU to another SFP port deletes the old entry. Multiple entries of the same MID are not possible. 4.3.6 Controlling the AU (276X and 277X) Commands proceeded by ++ are Antenna Unit commands and routed to the currently active  AU.  AUs  are activated using  the REID  command.  On activating a  new  AU its current settings are displayed.  EXAMPLE  The  command  “reid  au3”  activates  the  AU  connected  to  the  SFP  port  #  3.  All commands proceeded by “++” are now directed to this AU.  4.3.6.1 Setting the Attenuator Values in the Antenna Unit The attenuators in the AU are controlled using the “++dla” (DownLink Attenuator) and the  “++ula”  (UpLink  Attenuator)  commands  for  the  downlink  and  the  uplink, respectively. Before using this command, make sure that the correct AU is active.  EXAMPLE  To set the attenuation of the AU which is connected to SFP port # 7 to 3 dB, the AU has to be activated using the command “reid au7”. Then the attenuation setting can be changed using the command “++dla 3”.
