CommScope ERA Medium Power Carrier Access Point Installation Guide Page 3 ERA System Overview ERA SYSTEM OVERVIEW CommScope ERA coordinates wireless capacity throughout the entire coverage area via a single centralized head-end location or from an operators existing C-RAN hub. ERA systems bring together licensed wireless and power, plus Gigabit Ethernet for WiFi into one wireless system that can scale to building size and is Central Area Node (CAN) technology and spectrum agnostic and adaptive. An ERA system comprises the components listed below. the signals from multiple operators and distributes those signals within a venue or multiple venues. There are two configuration modes available for the CAN:

Classic CAN and

. provides server-level control and primary signal distribution. It combines Classic Switching Switching CAN configuration is appropriate for when all the BTS and Baseband sources are located The in a centralized space in the same venue as the Classic CAN. You install RF Donor (RFD) Cards and CPRI Digital Donor (CDD) Cards in a Classic CAN, which digitizes the analog BTS signals from the RFD Cards and combines those with the BBU CPRI digital signals from the CDD Cards, and then distributes the RF signals to the TENs. The TENs then provide the RF signals to the Access Points (APs). The Classic CAN also supports APs that are directly connected to CAT or OPT Cards installed in the Classic CAN chassis. Wide-area Integration Nodes (WINs) are not supported by a Classic CAN. Users have full and flexible control of all signal routing via the ERA GUI. configuration is appropriate for when WINs are required to allow operators to The bring in baseband signals from multiple remote locations to fully leverage the C-RAN architecture in their hubs. All operator Baseband signals (analog BTS and BBU CPRI) are supplied to the Switching CAN by the WINs, so no RFD or CDD Cards can be installed in the Switching CAN. The Switching CAN then combines the signals from all WINs and distributes those signals to the TENs, and the TENs provide the signals to the APs. APs are not directly connected to a Switching CAN. Users have full and flexible control of all signal routing via the ERA GUI. This guide uses CAN to collectively refer to Central Area Nodes. When information pertains to a specific CAN mode, Classic CAN and Switching CAN will be used. Wide-Area Integration Node (WIN) interfaces between a Switching CAN and RF sources, which makes C-RAN possible in ERA by allowing operators to bring in signals from multiple remote locations kilometers away. You install RFD and CDD Cards in the WIN, which takes the analog BTS signals from the RFD Cards and combines those with the BBU CPRI digital signals from the CDD Cards, and distributes the Transport Expansion Node (TEN) RF sources to a Switching CAN. is an expansion node connected to the CAN via fiber and can be located throughout the venue coverage area. A single TEN can support, dependent on the AP type and powering method, 12 to 32 Access Points (APs), which greatly reduces the number of fiber runs between the head-end and each AP. Access Point (AP) connects a Classic CAN or TEN to antennas or other wireless devices. On the downlink, an AP converts data arriving at the AP to analog signals and sends them to an antenna. On the uplink, received signals are digitized and serialized into data streams which are sent back to the Classic CAN or TEN. APs provide pass-through support for WiFi, IP cameras, or other devices over a common cable. An AP can be any of the Universal Access Points or Carrier Access Points. This guide uses Access Point (AP) to collectively refer to all versions of the Universal Access Point (UAP) and the Carrier Access Point (CAP). Fiber APs collectively refers to the CAP H, CAP M, and the Fiber CAP L. When information pertains to a specific AP type, that AP will be identified. CommScope ERA Medium Power Carrier Access Point Installation Guide Page 4 M0201AJG_uc Decemeber 2020 CommScope, Inc. CAP M OVERVIEW This installation guide describes the Medium Power Carrier Access Point (CAP M), which interfaces via an optical link with a Classic CAN, or with a TEN. This allows the CAP M to provide data over Single-Mode Fiber

(SMF), or Multi-Mode Fiber (MMF). Power for CAP Ms is provided over embedded AC/DC (AC version) or remotely through hybrid fiber (DC version). On the downlink, the CAP M converts data arriving at the CAP M to analog signals and sends them to the Antenna port. On the uplink, received signals are digitized and serialized into data streams, which are sent back to the Classic CAN or TEN. Each CAP M can provide RF coverage for up to four specific frequency bands. Figure 1 shows how a CAP M can be deployed in an ERA system.

INSTALLING CAP MS Installing CAP Ms The following sections guide you through the installation of a CAP M. Pay attention to all cautions and follow the steps in the order presented. CAP M APs require the use of RFD Card PN 7633229-01 or 7633229-02 or higher. CAP M Installation and Cascade Rules When cascading a Secondary CAP M or an external Ethernet device such as WiFi or an IP camera, you must observe the following rules. In a cascade, the CAP M connected directly to the Classic CAN or TEN is the Primary CAP M, and the CAP M that connects to the Primary CAP M is the Secondary CAP M. You connect CAP Ms to an OPT Card in the Classic CAN or TEN. Each OPT Card has four 10 Gbps ports (labeled 1 - 4) for fiber connections. You can connect up to 4 CAP Ms per OPT Card for a total of 16 Primary CAP Ms, per Classic CAN or TEN. You can connect one Secondary CAP M to each Primary CAP M for a total of eight CAP Ms per OPT Card, which 32 total CAP Ms per Classic CAN or TEN. The total 320 MHz RF bandwidth is shared between the two cascaded units, but can be shared unevenly;

that is, with more bandwidth going to either the Primary or Secondary CAP Meither CAP M can transmit all the 320 MHz RF bandwidth or any subset of it. The Primary and Secondary CAP Ms power up as soon as power is applied to them. In a cascade, the GUI discovers and readies the Primary CAP M for RF first, and then the Secondary CAP M will be discovered and readied for RF. For information on the Power LED behavior, see "Power the CAP M on page 66. SMF or MMF connects the CAP M via its Optical Port 1 to the OPT Card. When cascading a Secondary CAP M or an external Ethernet device such as WiFi or an IP camera, you must observe the following rules. To cascade two CAP Ms, use a fiber-optic cable. SMF or MMF connects the Secondary CAP M via its Optical Port 1 to the Primary CAP M via its Optical Port 2. You can connect the following to the Primary CAP M a Secondary CAP M an Ethernet device both a Secondary CAP M and an Ethernet device. To add a Secondary AP, you must add an Optical OCTIS kit to the Primary CAP M, see "OCTIS Kits on page 9. To add an Ethernet device, you must add an RJ45 OCTIS kit to the Primary CAP M, see "OCTIS Kits on page 9. M0201AJG_uc Decemeber 2020 CommScope, Inc. CommScope ERA Medium Power Carrier Access Point Installation Guide Page 21 Installing CAP Ms Cat6A Cable Requirements for Ethernet Devices If you connect an Ethernet device to a Fiber CAP M, you must observe the following rules. Plenum rated cable must be used whenever it is required by local electrical codes. Shielded twisted pair is not required unless operating in a high RFI/EMI environment. CommScope strongly recommends using factory terminated and tested Cat6A Patch Cord. 24 AWG Cat6A cabling is sufficient for the cable run between the Fiber CAP M and the Ethernet device. The maximum attached cable length at Port A is 3 meters (9.8 feet). Prepare for Installation Do the following before beginning installation. Review and know the cautions in "Safely Working with ERA Hardware on page 15. Review the system design plan. Identify the equipment installation site, which must be able to support the weight of the CAP M, see

"Determine the Mounting Site on page 24. Review the power requirements to make sure the site can support this installation. Map out all cable runs. Identify and obtain all tools and materials required to complete the installation; see "Recommended Tools and Material on page 22 Recommended Tools and Material The following tools and material is required for installation are not supplied by CommScope.

General Mounting Cautions Installing CAP Ms The following cautions apply to all CAP M installations; there may be other mounting cautions applicable to a specific mounting option, which will be defined in the applicable mounting procedure. Attach all CAP Ms securely to a stationary object as described in this installation guide. To maintain proper ventilation, keep at least 76 mm (3-inch) clearance around the CAP M. The installation site must be able to bear the weight of the CAP M; see Table 8 on page 24. Risk of injury by the weight of the unit falling. Ensure there is adequate manpower to handle the weight of the system. Risk of serious personal injury by equipment falling due to improper installation. Installers must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the electronic equipment and all attached hardware and components. For wall mounts, the screws and dowels (wall anchors) used should also be appropriate for the structure of the supporting wall. If any different or additional mounting material is used, ensure that the mounting remains as safe as the mounting designed by the manufacturer. The specifications for stationary use of the CAP M must not be exceeded. Ensure that the static and dynamic strengths are adequate for the environmental conditions of the site. The mounting itself must not vibrate, swing or move in any way that might cause damage to the CAP M. M0201AJG_uc Decemeber 2020 CommScope, Inc.

With the cable's Mains plug disconnected from the CAP M, turn the circuit breaker on, unscrew the plug's protective cover, and carefully test the plug with a voltmeter to ensure that the voltage and polarity are correct. Once the testing has been completed, turn off the circuit breaker. Unscrew the protective cover from the Mains connector of the unit. Insert the AC or DC power cable into the Mains connector as shown below; tighten the clamping ring until it is hand tight. Do not over-tighten the clamping ring. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Mains connector Clamping ring Mains plug AC or DC power cable M0201AJG_uc Decemeber 2020 CommScope, Inc. CommScope ERA Medium Power Carrier Access Point Installation Guide Page 65 Installing CAP Ms Connect a Hybrid Fiber Splice Box For a CAP M powered by the Hybrid Fiber Splice Box (PN 7693816-xx):

connect the power cable to the proprietary 4-pin, 36 to 60 Vdc Power connector on the CAP M, and terminate the other end to the CAP M Hybrid Fiber Splice Box. Install an SFP+ module of the desired type (same as used at the OPT Card port) into the OCTIS connector before connecting the LC Fiber pigtail. connect the LC Fiber Pigtail to the supplied OCTIS connector and splice the other end of the fiber pigtail inside the locally-mounted CAP M Hybrid Fiber Splice Box. The LC Fiber Pigtail, which is not included with the Fiber Splice Box for the CAP M must be obtained separately. Power the CAP M The CAP M is powered on as soon as power is connected to it. Under normal operating conditions, the Power LED turns on briefly when the unit is first detected. It will then go out briefly, followed by an initialization period during which the Power LED flashes slowly while the CAP M is configured. The Power LED remains a steady green (not flashing) once the unit reaches a fully operational state, which typically occurs within 45 seconds. CAP M Power LED behavior is as follows:

OffCAP M is not powered on. Initial flash on then offCAP M is powered on and the fiber cable is not connected to a CAN/TEN. Steady greenCAP M is powered on and operational with the fiber cable connected to a CAN/TEN. Slow flashing greenCAP M is powered on and initializing.
