I. Introduction
A. What is the UWMS-01?
The Universal Wireless Monitoring System (“UWMS-01”) enables Sprint to monitor and control its
network devices (“Devices”) such as repeaters and DAS remotely and wirelessly. Due to its universality,
any HTTP-based devices with standard Ethernet interface can be connected to the UWMS-01. Using the
UWMS-01 Sprint will be able to access the Devices connected to the UWMS-01 to monitor them or
change their parameters without visiting the physical site. This wireless monitoring and control
capability enables Sprint to proactively diagnose and troubleshoot problems remotely even before a
customer complaint is received. This translates into less network management costs and increased
customer satisfaction.
This means anytime, anywhere access to Sprint’s Devices from everywhere.
- Higher data throughput using 1xEV-DO Rev. A wireless module
- Managing multiple devices (up to 8 repeaters or 32 DAS remote nodes) simultaneously
- Built-in 10/100 Mbps switching HUB
- Eight Ethernet ports
- Conversion of dry contact alarms to SNMP alarms
- Tested compatibility with the following Devices:
ADRF Repeaters, Andrew ION™-B & Node-A Repeater, Dekolink Repeaters, GS Teletech Repeaters,
ADC Fusion®, MobileAccess SC-450, SK Telesys Repeaters, and R-tron Repeaters.

C. Dry Contact Set-up
Some legacy Sprint Devices do not have Ethernet interface, e.g., MA 410. Devices which have dry
contact alarms can still be connected to the UWMS-01 through the UWMS-01’s dry contact port. The
UWMS-01 can receive up to four (4) dry contact alarms and convert these to one of the five (5) SNMP
alarms defined in the Sprint MIB.
There are four (4) LEDs on the bottom of the UWMS-01, matching the four (4) dry contact alarms. When
an alarm event occurs, the corresponding dry contact LED will be lit in solid green. When the alarm
clears, the LED will be off.
Picture 8. Dry Contact Set-up Screenshot
(1) Add New Dry Contact Alarm: Assign a proper Port number (1~4), input Site ID provided by
Sprint, select one of the 5 alarms with which you want to associate the dry contact alarm,
select dry contact form type based on the device’s connection contact form, then click the
blue plus sign. If you select “RF Power,” when alarm event occurs, Sprint NOC will see the
event as “RF Power” alarm. Model and Type information are not required.
Here are 3 dry contact form types. (Form A, B,C)
•Normally-open (NO) contacts connect the circuit when the relay is activated; the circuit is
disconnected when the relay is inactive. It is also called a Form A contact or "make"
contact.
•Normally-closed (NC) contacts disconnect the circuit when the relay is activated; the
circuit is connected when the relay is inactive. It is also called a Form B contact or "break"
contact.
