This chapter describes the safety regulations relevant for using the product
DIB-R5 advanced.
2.1 Intended use
The product is exclusively designed for being used as a professional TETRA base sta-
tion. In this application it is used for the wireless communication between subscribers
equipped with the corresponding mobile stations as well as for switching calls and trans-
ferring data between subscribers within a TETRA (Terrestrial Trunked Radio) network.
Intended use also includes that:
nall the security instructions set forth in the product documents are always heeded,
nall the maintenance tasks described are performed in the interval specified,
nthe general, national and in-house safety regulations are heeded.
Any other use is impermissible.
The product is not used as intended, for example, if:
nthe requirements described in the product documents haven't been met and instruc-
tions are disregarded,
nthe product is modified structurally or technically without the approval of Hytera Mobil-
funk GmbH,
nreplacement parts are used that differ from the components installed by default.
The operator of the product is responsible for damage to the product or damage caused
by the product if the product was used beyond the intended application range and/or was
not used as intended.
2.2 Safety measures
All the regulations specified in the following must be adhered to without fail:
nIf extension cables or multiple socket outlets are used, make sure that they are
inspected for proper condition periodically.
nAfter any security-related parts have been replaced (e.g. power switch or circuit
breakers) a security check must be performed (visual inspection, protective grounding
conductor load, leakage resistance, leakage current measurement, function test).
nObserve other task-related security measures and requirements in the standard oper-
ating procedures.

Heed the security labeling!
In addition to the safety notices described within the product documentation, all safety
labels attached in and on the product must be observed. They point out potential haz-
ardous areas and must neither be removed nor changed.
2.2.1 Authorized personnel
The product may only transported, set up/installed, connected, commissioned, operated
and maintained by experts who know and follow the respective valid safety and installa-
tion regulations.
The experts must be authorized to perform the required tasks by the person responsible
for the security in the enterprise of the network operator.
Experts are persons who:
nare trained and experienced in the corresponding field,
nare familiar with the relevant standards, regulations, provisions and security codes,
nhave been instructed in the mode of operation and the operating conditions of the
equipment components,
ncan identify and avert dangers.
Depending on the tasks to be performed, the following user groups are distinguished:
noperators who
–operate the product,
–monitor, interrupt, terminate and restore operation of the product.
nService personnel: persons who perform the following in addition to the tasks of the
operator:
–set up the product,

–adjust and/or parameterize the product,
–maintain, care for, and repair the product.
2.2.2 Electromagnetic compatibility
For function-related reasons, increased electromagnetic radiation may occur with specific
products, e.g. HF radio systems. Taking into consideration that unborn life is increasingly
worthy of being protected, pregnant women should be protected through appropriate
measures. People with personal medical devices such as cardiac pacemakers and
hearing aids can also be endangered by electromagnetic radiation. The operator is
obliged to assess workplaces with a considerable risk of exposure to radiation and to
avert any hazards.

Transport inspection using impact indicators
To check whether a product was properly transported, the transport boxes are fitted with
impact indicators. The impact indicator shows heavy impacts or vibrations that were
caused by an improper transport.
The following chapters describe the used security markings and indicate that the corre-
sponding instructions must be followed.
2.4.2.1 Safety marking "Fragile"
The security marking "Fragile" points to the necessary protection of the product against
shock. Transport boxes with this marking must absolutely be protected against shock.

3 Product description
The DIB-R5 base station family is a constituent of the TETRA mobile radio system
ACCESSNET-T IP and ensures the powerful and reliable mobile radio coverage of a spe-
cific area. Trendsetting TETRA Release 2 and TETRA Enhanced Data Service (TEDS)
support make the DIB-R5 extremely attractive for all scenarios in which a high degree of
availability as well as high speed data are a must. The TEDS data transmission allows
transferring up to 150 kbit/s (gross bit rate) securely and reliably via the air interface.
Figure 4: DIB-R5 family
The different variants of the DIB-R5 base station family meet the customer and network
requirements in a perfect way. The following variants of the DIB-R5 are available:
nDIB-R5 advanced
The DIB-R5 advanced offers up to eight TETRA carriers with cavity combiner.
DIB-R5 advanced consists of one or two equipment racks depending on the number
of carriers.
nDIB-R5 compact
The DIB-R5 compact offers up to two TETRA carriers with hybrid combiner.
DIB-R5 compact is suitable for space-saving installation in existing 19" equipment
racks.
The hardware design of DIB-R5 features a modular layout. This allows hardware compo-
nents to be replaced or added during ongoing operation.
Product description
DIB-R5 advanced
19Operation Manual 90DIBR5advancedOM02 - 1.0

In each equipment rack DIB-R5 advanced offers space for four TETRA Channel Units
(CHU), which are each providing one TETRA carrier. By using a second equipment rack,
up to eight carriers are supported. Thus offers DIB-R5 advanced a maximum of 32 radio
channels to the radio subscribers that can be used simultaneously. To increase the avail-
ability, DIB-R5 advanced can be equipped with different redundancy options to avoid
"Single Points of Failure". On the hardware side, the transceivers, control unit and voltage
supply can be designed redundantly. Furthermore, additional software-based redundancy
options are available that further increase the reliability of features.
DIB-R5 advanced supports different system configurations of the antenna coupling
system, including motor-tuned cavity combiner. This enables individual and fast remote
frequency change. In addition, DIB-R5 advanced supports for optimal reception triple
diversity. This optimizes the radio characteristic of the base stations and reduces the
number of base stations that are required for covering a certain area.
DIB-R5 advanced can be configured depending on customer requests and network
requirements and expanded e.g. through additional carriers. This allows the mobile radio
network to be adapted accordingly to meet new requirements and protect the current
investment.
For time synchronization, the DIB-R5 advanced compact can be operated optionally with
satellite-based synchronization, e.g. GPS, Galileo and Glonass (Global Navigation Satel-
lite System, GNSS).The continuous operation is also supported without satellite-based
synchronization sources. This allows a reliable operation even in underground areas or
within buildings without the need of using an antenna for the reception of a satellite
signal.
The following figure shows the front view of the DIB-R5 advanced with four TETRA
Channel Units (CHU) and DUPLEXER. The following table describes the components in
greater detail.
