Warnings and Admonishments
There may be situations, particularly for workplace environments near high-powered RF sources, where recommended limits
for safe exposure of human beings to RF energy could be exceeded. In such cases, restrictive measures or actions may be
necessary to ensure the safe use of RF energy.
The equipment has been designed and constructed to prevent, as far as reasonably, practicable danger. Any work activity on
or near equipment involving installation, operation or maintenance must be, as far as reasonably, free from danger.
Where there is a risk of damage to electrical systems involving adverse weather, extreme temperatures, wet, corrosive or
dirty conditions, flammable or explosive atmospheres, the system must be suitably installed to prevent danger.
Equipment provided for the purpose of protecting individuals from electrical risk must be suitable for the purpose and properly
maintained and used. This covers a range of activities including lifting, lowering, pushing, pulling, carrying, moving, holding or
restraining an object, animal or person from the equipment. It also covers activities that require the use of force or effort, such
as pulling a lever, or operating power tools.
Where some of the above-mentioned activities are required, the equipment must be handled with care to avoid being
damaged.
Observe standard precautions for handling ESD-sensitive devices. Assume that all solid-state electronic devices are ESD-
sensitive. Ensure the use of a grounded wrist strap or equivalent while working with ESD-sensitive devices. Transport, store,
and handle ESD-sensitive devices in static-safe environments.

RF Safety
To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirement, adhere to the following warnings:
Warning! Antennas used for this product must be fixed mounted on indoor permanent structures, providing a separation
distance of at least 50 cm from all persons during normal operation.
Warning! Each individual antenna used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a minimum separation distance of 50
cm or more from all persons and must not be co-located with any other antenna for meeting RF exposure requirements.
Warning! Antenna gain should not exceed 12.5 dBi.
Warning! The design of the antenna installation needs to be implemented in such a way so as to ensure RF radiation safety
levels and non-environmental pollution during operation.
ATTENTION!
Compliance with RF safety requirements:
•Corning products have no inherent significant RF radiation
•The RF level on the downlink is very low at the downlink ports. Therefore, there is no dangerous RF radiation when the
antenna is not connected.
CAUTION!
Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous
radiation exposure.
Laser Safety
•Fiber optic ports of the Corning optical network evolution (ONE™) solution elements emit invisible laser radiation at the
1310/1550 nm wavelength window.
•External optical power is less than 10 mW, Internal optical power is less than 500 mW.
•To avoid eye injury never look directly into the optical ports, patchcords or optical cables. Do not stare into beam or view
directly with optical instruments. Always assume that optical outputs are on.
•Only technicians familiar with fiber optic safety practices and procedures should perform optical fiber connections and
disconnections of the devices and the associated cables.
•CoringONE has been tested and certified as a Class 1 Laser product to IEC/EN 60825-1 (2007). It also meets the
requirements for a Hazard Level 1 laser product to IEC/EN 60825-2: 2004 to the same degree.
•Corning ONE complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 except for deviations pursuant to laser notice no. 50 (2007).

1INTRODUCTION
The five-band remote access unit (RAU5x) is a fiber fed, multi-service indoor coverage remote solution for Corning® optical
network evolution (ONE™) solutions. It enables multiple wireless technologies and operator services to be distributed over a
single broadband infrastructure. The RAU5x supports up to five SISO services (model dependent) in various combinations in
addition to two MIMO services via an expansion module. The RF services are routed from the headend according to user
defined service groups over single-mode fiber and converted for distribution by the specified remotes via an external
broadband antenna
Note: RAU5x can be ordered with a preassembled Corning external antenna or can be connected to external omni directional
or directional antennas complying with the requirements specified in Section 3.6.1.
The remote unit can host the following additional modules:
•RxU67 (Remote expansion unit 67) –provides 600MHz and FirstNet 700 support
•RxU2325 (Remote expansion unit 2325) —provides support for two additional bands: 2300 MHz WCS and 2500 MHz
TDD
•GEM (Gigabit Ethernet module) –provides Gigabit Ethernet support, enabling offload, expansion and effective use of Wi-
Fi resources. Ethernet services from the corporate LAN (received via Ethernet switch) are routed towards the GEM. The
optical traffic is then converted to 1GbE by the GEM and distributed to two third party equipment such as access points,
Ethernet switch, etc.
Note: RxU67 and GEM cannot be added together.
The RAU5x can be deployed alongside other Corning ONE remotes (e.g., mid-power remote unit –MRU), sharing a common
headend and element management system. Management and configuration options are provided for each remote access unit
service via a web session to the headend control module (HCM).
1.1 Key Features and Capabilities
•Multi-frequency/ multi-service platform: supports five services: ESMR 800/CELL 850, LTE 700, AWS1/3 1700, and PCS 1900
•Expansion of RAU5x services via RxU2325 plug-in module which supports 2300 MHz and 2500 MHz TDD —support for
seven services per coverage area over the same footprint.
•Multi-operator optimized platform —services from a number of operators can be distributed by the same unit
•Operator grade performance —advanced signal handling, RF filtering and management ensures operator grade
performance
•Optic fiber savings —all services are routed over a single optic fiber pair
•Expansion module RxU67 providing expansion of two additional bands:600MHz and FirstNet 700.
•Ethernet support —supports “plug in” GEM providing support for connected IP devices (Wi-Fi APs, IP Phones, etc.) with
Ethernet pass through and PoE
•Simple installation and maintenance —provided with easy-to-install mounting bracket; all interfaces located on front panel
•Array of mounting options —various accessory kits available to accommodate different mounting options: wall/ceiling
mount, back-to-back wall mount, acoustic ceiling installations
•Management and control —alarm forward to NOC or standard EMS via SNMP, software-controlled output power and optical
link auto gain control

1.2 Architecture
The remote access units distribute the wireless and Ethernet services received over the fiber-optic infrastructure from the
Corning® optical network evolution (ONE™) solutions headend.
The RAU5x is a service-specific module supporting five SISO services that performs the optical to RF conversion of signals
received from the optical interface unit (OIU) at the headend. Signals are automatically filtered, amplified and distributed via
external antennas. Uplink signals are then converted to optical signals before being transmitted back to the OIU.

1.3 Web Management Application
The Corning Optical Network Evolution (ONE™) Solution headend control module (HCM) enables centralized, system-level
element management and provides c omprehensive end-to-end, single source setup and management of the active RF system
components after their physical installation . Management capabilities are provided for both the RAU5x and installed RF
expansion module.
