(optional)
5.1 139/140 Hardware
NOTE: When looking at the FlexWave™ nano with the connections facing down and
the LED visible the antenna on the left is the Transmit antenna and the antenna on
the right hand side is the Receive antenna.
NOTE: The RF feeder cable must not be bent sharply as this may result in a
degraded performance.
Remove the plastic covers by removing the top and bottom plates from both ends of
the FlexWave™ nano . Lever gently apart with screwdriver in notch.

NOTE: When looking at the front of 165 FlexWave™ nano with the Ethernet and TIB
connectors facing downwards, the TX antenna is bottom left, the RX antenna is
bottom right and the Network Listen (NWL) antenna is top right.
To fit external antennas, remove the plastic cover from the unit and unscrew the the
antennas to expose the SMA connectors. Connect directly to these connectors.

Figure 8 below illustrates the correct cabling of the Ethernet and TIB cables:
Figure 8 - Ethernet and TIB cabling
6.3 Ethernet
Each 139/140/178 FlexWave™ nano must be connected to an Ethernet switch or hub
via either a 109 ADC single power inserter or 126 ADC Powered Ethernet Switch.
Refer to CENG0033 for details of the power supply connections. The 165 EDGE
FlexWave™ nano may use either the above power options or a separate 48V DC
power supply available from ADC.
6.4 Timing Interface Bus (TIB) – Multi-TRX
only
The Timing Interface Bus (TIB) is used to provide clock and signaling between the
FlexWave™ nano when operating in a Multi-TRX configuration.
The TIB OUT from the Master TRX must be connected to the TIB IN of the slave TRX.
This in turn has its TIB OUT connected to the next TRX in the chain. See Figure 9.

Figure 9 - TIB Connections
6.5 Chassis Bond Strap – Multi-TRX only
When the FlexWave™ nano is operated in a Multi-TRX configuration, each of the
FlexWave™ nano must be connected together using the supplied chassis bond kit.
To fit the chassis bond strap, remove the FlexWave™ nano from the mounting plate
Using the screw provided, screw the Chassis Bond Strap to the screw on the rear of
the FlexWave™ nano , see Figure 10 or Figure 11.

7Mounting the FlexWave™ nano
The location of each FlexWave™ nano is shown on the installation floor plan
produced at the network planning stage. The network wiring must be complete
before the FlexWave™ nano can be installed and commissioned. The FlexWave™
nano should be placed on a wall at or above head height or on a ceiling. Unless
explicitly stated otherwise, the following procedure is common for both 139/140 and
165 hardware variants.
Remove the FlexWave™ nano from the bracket by sliding the removal tool over the
central fin between the bracket and the body of the unit to disengage the locking
spring, slide bracket to separate it from the main body of the unit. The tool may be
inserted from the top or bottom of the FlexWave™ nano
Figure 12 - FlexWave™ nano Bracket Removal
Position the bracket on the wall and mark the position of the four screw holes. The
top of the bracket MUST be positioned uppermost. Ensure that the bracket is level
and sufficient clearance is maintained to allow the unit to be located on the bracket
(at least 80mm from the bracket to the top of wall and 120mm from the side of the
bracket to a side wall). See the diagram below, Figure 13 - Fixing the wall bracket.

Drill the four holes in the positions marked previously and insert wall plugs (if
required) and fix the mounting bracket securely to the wall. The bracket is designed
to allow the FlexWave™ nano unit to be mounted with the connections at the bottom
of the unit.
Slide the FlexWave™ nano onto the bracket and ensure that the retaining spring
engages into the indent at the rear of the unit.

Figure 14 - Mounting the FlexWave™ nano
When fixing to a ceiling or a sloping wall the same fixing process and clearances
should be observed as for fixing to a wall (at least 80mm from the bracket to the top
of wall and 120mm from the side of the bracket to a side wall). On a sloping surface
the top of the bracket MUST be uppermost. Once the unit has been attached to the
bracket the outer cover MUST be removed to expose the cooling vanes, as shown in

7.1 Mounting Multi-TRX FlexWave™ nano
When the FlexWave™ nano are to be installed in a Multi-TRX configuration, then
each TRX should be installed in a similar orientation but not closer than 30cm to
each other.
A further specific constraint is that the TIB cables must be <1.5m and a 1.5mm2
Chassis Bond cable must also be connected between each TRX with a length not
exceeding that of the TIB cable.
7.2 Mounting Multi-TRX 165 FlexWave™ nano
The 165 (EDGE) BTS may be installed in a stacked two-TRX configuration. See Annex
A - Drawing 165#018 for details. The procedure for mounting a stacked two-TRX
configuration is as follows:
•Fit the first wall bracket to the wall in the desired position
•Remove the plastic cover from the bottom unit
•Relocate the TX antenna as illustrated in Annex A
•Fit the antenna cable (part number 165_072) as illustrated in Annex A
•Fit the second wall bracket to the bottom unit as illustrated in Annex A
•Mount the bottom unit on the wall
•Fit the Ethernet and TIB cables to the bottom unit
•Fit the skirt (part number 165_028) to the bottom unit
•Remove the plastic cover from the top unit and attach it to the bottom unit
•Attach the Ethernet and TIB cables to the top unit
•Replace the plastic cover on the top unit

8Initial Frequency Calibration
NOTE: The FlexWave™ nano must be powered on for a minimum of 24 hours prior
to final frequency calibration. It is recommended that during installation an initial,
local calibration is made following a powered on time of > 10 minutes followed by a
final operational calibration after 24 hours power on time.
NOTE: If the FlexWave™ nano is used in a Multi-TRX configuration, then the TIB
OUT must be disconnected from each FlexWave™ nano in the chain prior to
calibration and reconnected afterwards. Only the Master TRX should be calibrated.
•Using BTSInstaller, select the FlexWave™ nano that is to be calibrated and
then click on the “Listen” button in the “BTS Status” pane.
•Select the frequency band to match that of the FlexWave™ nano to be
installed.
•Click on the “Connect” button, this will cause the FlexWave™ nano TRX to
power up. The status LED will flash green when completed.
•Click on the “Channel Usage” tab and then click on the “Start Test” button.
•When completed click on the “BCCH Channel Usage” tab and then click on the
“Start Test” button.
•When completed, click on the “Frequency Synchronisation” tab.
•Select “Configure Test”
•Select the “Freq Sync Options” tab and then click on the “Apply Frequency
Synch Options” and change the Option to “Adjust The Clock To Correct The
Reported Errors” then click “OK”
•Click on the “Start Test” button.
Once the test completes then the calibration is completed and the procedure should
be repeated for all installed FlexWave™ nano before reconnecting the TIB cables.
Following the 24-hour period, the Frequency Calibration procedure should be
performed as per the Operations procedure – Ref {2}
