Attention: Make sure that an appropriate circuit breaker acting as a disconnect device (as required by IEC/EN60950-1) and an overcurrent limiting device are connected between mains power and the unit. 6. Attention: Incorrectly wired connections can destroy electrical and electronic components. 7. Notice: Although the unit is internally protected against overvoltage, it is strongly recommended to ground (earth) the antenna cables close to the antenna connectors of the unit for protection against atmospheric discharge. In areas with strong lightning, it is strongly recommended to install additional lightning protection. 8. Notice: To avoid corrosion at the connectors caused by electrochemical processes, the material of the cable connectors must not cause a higher potential difference than 0.6 V (see electrochemical contact series). 9. Notice: Use an appropriate torque wrench for the coupling torques: - for N-type connectors (2 N-m / 20 in lb) with 13/16 in opening, e. g. item no. 244379 available from the CommScope e-catalog - for 4.3-10 type connectors (5 N-m, 44 in lb) with 22mm (7/8) in opening Do NOT use your hands or any other tool (e.g. a pair of pliers). This might cause damage to the connector and lead to a malfunction of the unit. 10.

RF Exposure Info

RF Exposure Info / MPE Sample Calculation Model: ION-U EB L 23/23 Vac FCC-ID: XS5-UEBL2323 THE MAIN TASKS OF THE TFBX BOOSTER Downlink (DL): • RF output power adjustment: to compensate the gain variation of the auxiliary channel • RF amplification: RF signal are boosted in order to maintain a good signal-to noise ratio • RF filtering: a proper filter rejects the spurious emissions • RF splitting: the boosted RF signal is conveyed to two antenna ports Uplink (UL): • Automatic Level Control (ALC): the RF signal level is adjusted according to blocking requirements • RF amplification: a low noise amplifier boosts the signal received from antennas in order to maintain a good signal-to-noise ratio • RF filtering: the boosted signal is cleaned of the spurious emissions FREQUENCY STABILITY For not converted paths: Frequency stability is given by: The system gets an electrical analog signal from the SS which is converted into an analog optical signal, transmitted by the optical link and then reconverted in the Remote Unit into an analog electrical signal. During this process happens no frequency change/modification, so input and output have same frequency. For converted paths: Frequency stability is given by: The system gets an electrical analog signal from the BSS which is converted in the Master Unit frequency conversion module (FCM), into 2 analog optical signals on 2 different frequencies. These signals are transmitted by one optical link and then reconverted in the Remote Unit FCM into 2 analog electrical signals with same frequency for each of the 2 transmitting sectors. During this process happens no modification, as the oscillator responsible for both conversions is the same, so input and output have same frequency. Duplexers and filters limits the frequency bands. A transmitting and receiving of signals outside the permitted limits is not possible. The level will be regulated by power down function at the BTS. The selection and managing of frequency bands is on responsibility of national US frequency administration which deal with licences. The specific device generally will be professionally installed. Hereby the gain of the finally installed antenna(s), cable attenuation and antenna height will be defined site specific at the time of licensing with the appropriate FCC Bureau(s). The maximum permissible exposure limit is defined in 47 CFR 1.1310 (B). S = power density limit [W/m] P = power [W] R = distance [m] 2 4 n nn n R GP S   => n nn n S GP R 4  (to calculate the distance at one frequency) If we have more bands, than we have to calculated as a percentage: The additional of the terms have to be lower than 1. 1 4 .... 4 44 1.... 2 3 2 3 33 2 2 2 22 1 2 1 11 ln 3 3 2 2 1 1   n n nn n cacalcalcal S R GP S R GP S R GP S R GP S S S S S S S S   We are looking for a distance of ensures that the formula is satisfied. n RRRR... 321 1 4 ... 444 2 3 2 33 2 2 22 1 2 11  n nn SR GP SR GP SR GP SR GP  R S GP S GP S GP S GP R S GP S GP S GP S GP n nn n nn     4 ... 444 4 ... 444 3 33 2 22 1 11 2 3 33 2 22 1 11 With n nn n S GP R 4  => n nn n S GP R 4 2  RRRRR n  22 3 2 2 2 1 ... What you have to do for calculate the minimum distance were the power density limit is met: 1) If you have one path, you have to put you special values in the following formula. n nn n S GP R 4  (Distance for one carrier) Limits for General Population / Uncontrolled Exposures Frequency Range (MHz) Power Density (mW/cm 2 ) 300 – 1500 S = f/1500 1550 – 100,000 S = 1 2) If you have more than one path, you must add the individual terms quadratic. n nn n S GP R 4  (Distance for individual carrier) RRRRR n  22 3 2 2 2 1 ... (See previous page) For example: The EUT operates in one frequency band in SISO operation and 6 bands in MIMO operation. The max measured conducted output power is 31 dBm (1.3 W). The worst case operation is the MIMO configuration. Calculation for every path with maximum allowed antenna gain and without cable loss: Frequency [MHz] Max Power out [dBm] Antenna gain, without cable loss [dBi] Max. Distance [m] 728 30 9 0.1017 851.5 30 9 0.0937 1930 30 9 0.1011 2110 30 9 0.1123 2355 31 9 0.1123 The worst case would be if all bands were active: RRRRR n  22 3 2 2 2 1 ... R all > 0.234 m (see previous page for derivation) For more accurate calculation, the cable loss and actual antenna gain have to be included in the finally system. The antenna(s) used with device must be fixed-mounted on permanent structures with a distance to any human body to comply with the RF Exposure limit.
