Solution 1 is preferred. If
solution 1 fails to
implement, Huawei is
required to communicate
with the customer about
engineering risks and sign
a memorandum with the
customer before using
solution 2.
If solution 1 is used, the
engineering quality must strictly
comply with engineering
specifications.
If solution 2 is used, the network
box must be securely grounded.
In addition, a metal protective
cover must be installed between
the fiber strength member and
network box fixing points,
preventing sparks from
spreading if the fiber strength
member connects to a heavy-
current power line.
Customer
Solution 1
If the engineering does not
comply with solution 1, the
customer must take
consequences.
Customer
Huawei
Requirements: During
engineering, do not route
the fiber strength member
into the network box. In
addition, ground the fiber
strength member and the
network box separately.
Install the network box
and MxU based on the
instructions provided in
this document.
The customer must ensure that
the fiber strength member is not
be routed inside the network
box. Otherwise, the customer
must take consequences.
Customer
Grounding solution 1: The fiber strength member is isolated from the network box and grounded
outside the network box.
This solution prevents the introduction of sudden heavy currents into the network box, thereby
protecting the device inside the network box against heavy currents. (A long-distance armored
optical cable may introduce sudden heavy currents into the network box if the outer insulation
layer is broken and connects to a heavy-current power line.) Solution 1 is implemented as
follows:
1. Strip the outer insulation layer and armored tube from the fiber strength member at the
ground point. Then, clean bare optical fibers and use a protection tube to protect them. (Use
outdoor tubes in outdoor scenarios and common tubes in indoor or corridor scenarios. Use

waterproof tape produced by 3M or COTRAN.)
2. Use a piece of sandpaper to polish burrs at the stripped position of the optical cable. Then,
use insulation tape to wrap the stripped optical cable. When wrapping the waterproof tape,
ensure that fiber cores are force-free.
3. Cut excess fiber strength member for grounding.
During onsite operations,
ensure that optical fibers
are force-free and the bend
radius is greater than 40
mm. Otherwise, services
may become abnormal or
even fail due to degraded
signal transmission.
The fiber strength member
must be securely grounded.
In addition, the ground
point of the fiber strength
member must be at least 3
meters above the ground
(which prevents manual
touching), and no
combustible materials are
around the ground point
within a distance of 0.3 m.
If the fiber strength
member fails to be securely
grounded, it must be
insulated. Otherwise, the
fiber strength member may
introduce heavy currents if
it connects to a heavy-
current power line,
threatening human safety.
Grounding solution 2: The fiber strength member is grounded inside a network box.
The fiber strength member must be connected to a ground bar at the ground point using a ground
cable. The ground point can connect to the network box using a metal in an equipotential manner.
When the fiber strength member connects to a heavy-current power line, heavy currents may be
discharged inside the network box using the ground bar. If this happens, sparks may occur at the
contact point between the fiber strength member and the ground bar, which may burn the device
and the network box. To prevent this issue from occurring, use solution .

insulated. Otherwise,
heavy currents may be
discharged using the
network ports on the local
and peer devices, which
may damage these
network ports.

Step2 Routing network cable
Network cables cannot be directly used to connect FE or GE ports between the
MA5821 and MA5822.
If they are directly connected, FE or GE ports will be deactivate when the ring check
function is enabled.
If FE or GE ports are deactivated, perform the following to activate them:
1. Run the display ring check record command to query whether a ring network is
formed on ports.
2. Disconnect the network cable if a ring network is formed on ports.
3. Run the undo shutdown command to activate the port or run the ring check
resume-interval command to set the automatic port activation time to activate the port.
