Flexi Multiradio BTS GSM/EDGE Stack, Wall, and Pole Quick Guide This guide can be used as quick reference for Flexi Multiradio BTS GSM/EDGE installation. Flexi Multiradio BTS GSM/EDGE is a modular base station for GSM/EDGE capacity and coverage. It can be installed stacked on the floor, or mounted on the wall or on the pole. This quick guide is for basic stack, wall and pole configurations with 48V DC input power. The basic installation consists of one System Module (ESMB/C) and one RF Module (Fxxx) allowing 1+1+1 up to 6+6+6 configurations depending on the TRX output power. For all other installation options, see the user manuals.

All rights reserved. DN70970932, Issue 01 en Warning Danger of eye damage from invisible laser radiation produced by the System Module optical fibre connector!

Always switch off the laser before detaching the optical fibre from the connector. Caution Incorrect cables and seals may not provide secured environmental protection. Use only tested IP65 class cables with seals provided by Nokia Siemens Networks. Store all unused seals for later use. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) may damage the modules. Wear an ESD wrist strap or use a corresponding method when handling the modules. The rear stopper is fragile. Do not attempt to lift the plinth using the rear stopper. If water leaks into the outdoor mechanics, the transmission equipment may fail. To help prevent water leakage, feed the cables through the bottom cable entries in wall and pole mounting, and through the bottom cable entry holes in stack installation. Risk of damage to equipment. If modules are exposed to weather conditions, connector seals or boots must be installed at all times, whether the site is active or not. 1 Contents of delivery De live ry Contents of de live ry Ve rs ion Pr oduct c ode Qua ntity Syste m m o du le Flexi Multira dio B TS GSM/ED GE Sys te m Mo d ule Ba g R eclo s ab le (15 0 x 2 25 / 2 00 x 2 6 0 ) 0 .1 m m M1 0 H e x N u t B1 0 Wa sh e r AWG Sin g le ca b le term in a l lug rub b er b o ots M1 0 C a b lete rm (2 5/3 5 m m 2 ) R ing Pu ll-ou t to ol Tra n sm iss io n su b -m od u le Scre w s (p re -in sta lle d) R F Mod u le Flexi Multira dio B TS GSM/ED GE R ad io Fre q ue n cy Mo du le ES MB ES MC 4 7 21 0 9 4 7 20 5 9 Flexi tran s m is sio n inte rfac e E 1 a sym m etrica l su b m o du le (FIE A) Flexi tran s m is sio n inte rfac e Flexb us s ub -m o du le (FIFA) Flexi tran s m is sio n inte rfac e E 1/T1 s ym m e trica l s ub m o d ule (FIPA) Flexi tran s m is sio n su b -m o du le
