1 DESCRIPTION
This
section
provides
a
complete
description
of
the
Remote
Interface
Unit
(RIU).
1.1 Primary Functions and Components
The
RIU,
shown
in
Figure
1,
serves
as
the
interfacing
unit
between
a
remote
BTS
and
the
Digivance
DHU.
The
RIU
provides
the
following
basic
functions:
• RF
interface
to
the
BTS
(through
donor
antenna)
and
DHU
• Gain
adjustments
to
the
forward
and
reverse
path
RF
signal
• Duplexing
of
the
forward
and
reverse
path
RF
signals
• Alarm
reporting
to
an
external
alarm
system

Figure 1. Remote Interface Unit
A
remote
interface
between
the
DHU
and
the
BTS
(cell
site
base
station)
via
a
donor
antenna
requires
specific
RF
input
and
output
signal
levels
at
the
DHU
and
antenna.
The
correct
levels
at
the
DHU
and
antenna
can
be
provided
using
the
RIU.
The
RIU
provides
adjustable
gain
in
both
the
RF
forward
and
reverse
paths.
The
RIU
connects
to
a
directional
antenna
through
a
duplexer
which
provides
separate
forward
and
reverse
path
connections
for
the
DHU.
In
the
forward
path
(downlink),
the
RIU
provides
the
recommended
composite
maximum
RF
input
signal
level
at
the
DHU
which
is
–20
dBm.
When
the
level
of
the
RF
input
signal
at
the
DHU
is
–20
dBm,
the
level
of
the
RF
output
signal
at
the
DRU
is
+13
dBm
which
is
the
maximum
allowed.

ADCP-75-114 •Issue C •June 2001

ADC
Telecommunications,
Inc.
In
the
reverse
path,
the
required
RF
output
signal
level
to
the
donor
antenna
will
vary
depending
on
the
DRU
path
loss.
When
the
level
of
the
reverse
path
(uplink)
signal
at
the
DRU
is
at
the
recommended
composite
maximum
level
of
–40
dBm,
the
level
of
the
RF
output
signal
from
the
DHU
is
–30
dBm.
Therefore,
it
will
generally
be
necessary
to
add
some
gain
to
the
reverse
path
signal
in
order
to
achieve
the
required
output
signal
level
at
the
donor
antenna.
A
block
diagram
showing
a
typical
remote
DHU
to
BTS
interface
is
provided
in
Figure
2.
The
RIU
consists
of
an
electronic
circuit
board
assembly,
power
supply,
duplexer,
and
linear
power
amplifier
that
are
mounted
within
a
powder-coated
sheet
metal
enclosure.
The
metal
enclosure
provides
a
mounting
point
for
the
electronic
components,
serves
as
a
heat
sink,
and
controls
RF
emissions.
Except
for
the
fan,
the
electronic
components
are
not
user
replaceable.
The
RIU
is
designed
for
use
within
a
non-condensing
indoor
environment
such
as
inside
a
wiring
closet
or
cabinet.
All
controls,
connectors,
and
indicators
are
mounted
on
the
RIU
front
panel
for
convenient
access.
Cable
management
functions
for
the
power
and
coaxial
cables
are
provided
by
a
cable
management
tray
that
extends
outward
from
the
RIU

1.3 Fault Detection and Alarm Reporting
The
RIU
is
designed
to
detect
a
power
amplifier
over
or
under
current
condition
and
a
high
temperature
condition.
A
single
front
panel
Light
Emitting
Diode
(LED)
indicator
turns
from
green
to
red
or
yellow
if
a
fault
is
detected.
A
set
of
alarm
contacts
(normally
open
and
normally
closed)
are
also
provided
for
reporting
an
alarm
to
an
external
alarm
system
when
a
fault
is
detected.
Both
major
alarm
(power
amplifier
over/undercurrent
condition
or
power
failure)
and
minor
alarm
(high
temperature)
contacts
are
provided.
1.4 RF Signal Connections
The
RF
signal
connections
between
the
RIU
and
DHU
are
supported
through
a
pair
of
type
N
female
connectors
mounted
on
the
RIU
front
panel.
One
connector
is
used
for
connecting
the
forward
path
coaxial
cable
and
the
other
connector
is
used
for
connecting
the
reverse
path
coaxial
cable.
The
RF
signal
connection
between
the
RIU
and
the
donor
antenna
is
supported
through
a
single
type
N
female
connector.
The
single
connector
is
used
for
connecting
the
coaxial
jumper
cable
that
links
the
RIU
to
the
donor
antenna.
The
DHU
cannot
be
connected
directly
to
a
donor
antenna
and
requires
an
interface
device
such
as
the
RIU.
Note:
To
comply
with
Maximum
Permissible
Exposure
(MPE)
requirements,
antennas
must
be
installed
to
provide
at
least
20
centimeters
(8
inches)
of
separation
from
all
persons
per
FCC
47
CFR
part
2.1091.
1.5 RF Signal Level Adjustments
The
RIU
is
equipped
with
two
digital
attenuators
for
adjusting
the
signal
levels
of
the
forward
and
reverse
path
RF
signals.
The
attenuators
provide
an
attenuation
adjustment
range
of
0
to
31
dB
and
can
be
set
in
1
dB
increments.
In
the
forward
path,
this
range
provides
a
maximum
gain
of
+40
dB
(with
attenuator
set
to
0)
or
a
minimum
gain
of
+9
dB
(with
attenuator
set
to
31
dB).
In
the
reverse
path,
this
range
provides
a
maximum
gain
of
+59
dB
(with
attenuator
set
to
0)
or
a
minimum
gain
of
+28
dB
(with
attenuator
set
to
31
dB).
Each
attenuator
is
adjustable
by
means
of
two
rotary
switches
which
are
mounted
behind
the
RIU
front
panel.
Access
to
each
rotary
switch
is
through
a
small
hole.
A
small
screwdriver
is
required
to
adjust
the
switch
setting.
Turning
each
switch
adds
or
removes
attenuation
and
therefore
adjusts
the
signal
level
of
the
specified
signal
path.
1.6 Powering
The
RIU
is
powered
by
120/240
VAC
(50–60
Hz)
power
which
is
supplied
through
a
standard
three-conductor
AC
power
cord.
The
power
cord
is
provided
with
the
RIU
and
is
98
inches
(2.5
meters
)
long.
A
resetable
circuit
breaker/On-Off
switch
is
provided
at
the
unit
front
panel.
The
switch
applies
power
to
the
RIU
internal
power
supply.
1.7 Cooling
Continuous
air
flow
for
cooling
is
provided
by
a
fan
mounted
on
the
right
side
of
the
housing.
A
minimum
of
3
inches
(76
mm)
of
clearance
space
must
be
provided
on
both
the
left
and
right
sides
of
the
RIU
for
air
intake
and
exhaust.
An
alarm
is
provided
that
indicates
if
a
high
temperature
condition
(>58º
C/136º
F)
occurs.
The
fan
may
be
field-replaced
if
it
fails.

2.3 Mounting Procedure
The
RIU
may
be
either
rack-mounted
or
wall-mounted.
Of
the
procedures
that
follow,
use
whichever
procedure
is
appropriate
for
the
installation.
2.3.1 Rack-Mount Installation
The
RIU
may

mounting
the
RIU.
When
loading
the
RIU
in
a
rack,
make
sure
the
mechanical
loading
of
the
rack
is
even
to
avoid
a
hazardous
condition
such
as
a
severely
unbalanced
rack.
The
rack
should
safely
support
the
combined
weight
of
all
the
equipment
it
holds.
In
addition,
the
maximum
recommended
ambient
temperature
for
the

is
installed
in
a
multi-unit
rack
assembly
because
the
operating
ambient
temperature
of
the
rack
environment
might
be
greater
than
room
ambient.
Warning:
Wet
conditions
increase
the
potential
for
