CMM labeling and disclosure table
The People’s Republic of China require that our products comply with China Management
Methods (CMM) environmental regulations. (China Management Methods refers to the
regulation Management Methods for Controlling Pollution by Electronic Information Products.)
Two items are used to demonstrate compliance; the label and the disclosure table.
• Logo 2 means that the product may contain substances in excess of the maximum
concentration value for materials identified in the China Management Methods regulation,
and has an Environmental Friendly Use Period (EFUP) in years, fifty years in the example
shown.
Logo 1 Logo 2
The Environmental Friendly Use Period (EFUP) is the period (in years) during which the Toxic
and Hazardous Substances (T&HS) contained in the Electronic Information Product (EIP)
will not leak or mutate causing environmental pollution, or bodily injury from the use of the
EIP. The EFUP indicated by the Logo 2 label applies to a product and all its parts. Certain
field-replaceable parts, such as battery modules, can have a different EFUP and are marked
separately.
The Disclosure table is intended only to communicate compliance with China requirements.
It is not intended to communicate compliance with EU RoHS or any other environmental
requirements.

Data encryption
In order to avoid electronic eavesdropping, data passing between certain elements in the
network is encrypted. In order to comply with the export and import requirements of particular
countries, this encryption occurs at different levels as individually standardized, or may not be
present at all in some parts of the network in which it is normally implemented. The document
set, of which this document is a part, covers encryption as if fully implemented. Because the
rules differ in individual countries, limitations on the encryption included in the particular
software being delivered, are covered in the Release Notes that accompany the individual
software release.

The Horizon II macro is a 12 carrier Base Transceiver Station (BTS) cabinet, with variants that
operate in the GSM/EGSM900 and DCS1800 frequency bands.
The BTS cabinets are designed for indoor use. They can operate from either -48 V to 60 V DC
(positive earth), +27 V DC (negative earth), or wide input, Nominal 120 V to 240 V, AC single
phase supplies.
The new version of the cabinet is hard-wired for -48 and +27 V DC only.
Circulation fans located in the bottom portion of the cabinet provide necessary cabinet cooling.
In addition, each power supply unit contains an inbuilt cooling fan.
Except Figure 1-1, which shows both the old and new versions of the cabinet, only the

Comparative overview: Horizon II macro and Horizonmacro Chapter 1: Introduction to the Horizon II macro
Comparison overview
The Horizon II macro is an updated version of Horizonmacro. The Horizon II macro acts as a
replacement for the Horizonmacro indoor BTS, and is directly compatible with it. For example,
a mix of up to four Horizon II macro and Horizonmacro indoor (or even M-Cell6) BTSs can be
combined to form a single site, with either a Horizon II macro, a Horizonmacro indoor, or a
M-Cell6 being in control of the other units.
When a Horizonmacro MCUF or M-Cell6 MCU is the master site controller with a
Horizon II macro as an expansion cabinet, the MCUF/MCU must have a PCMCIA
card (running CSFP) installed to accommodate the additional memory requirements
of the Horizon II macro.
A 24-carrier BTS site (in an 8/8/8 configuration) can be achieved by combining a maximum of
four units. The units can be any combination of either the following:
• Horizon II macro
• Horizonmacro
• M-Cell6
Any of which can be the controlling (master) BTS, subject to the requirements described in
the NOTE.

later. (See Chapter 3 Power distribution of Installation and Configuration: Horizon II macro
(68P02902W97) for further details).
• In Figure 1-5, the CTU2s in the Horizon II macro BTS are double density and are
therefore capable of handling two carriers each (12 carriers total).
• The maximum site capacity is 24 carriers across all expansion cabinets in the
site.

Horizon II macro physical specications Chapter 1: Introduction to the Horizon II macro
Structural considerations
Adequate clearance must be provided at the front of the cabinet for Operation and Maintenance
purposes. There must be adequate side clearance (50 mm) to enable the door to open beyond
90° (See Figure 1-6). The door can also stop at 95° and 150°, but this is only to protect the door,
or give optional additional operator space.
The cabinet ventilation entry can be solely from the bottom front of the cabinet. This allows
a cabinet to be placed against a wall. However, if the unit is placed 50 mm from back or side
obstructions, such as wall or other cabinets, the ventilation will be improved, and fan noise
reduced.
Up to 100 mm rear space may be required for cables if using a stacking bracket.
The foundation or structure on which the BTS cabinet is mounted must be of sufficient strength
to support the maximum gross weight of the equipment, as defined in Table 1-4.

Horizon II macro electrical and RF specications Chapter 1: Introduction to the Horizon II macro
All values cited assume the use of certified and calibrated BTS/BER test equipment.
All signal sources, faders, attenuators and RF cables are assumed to have been
accurately calibrated, in order to determine the true power level being applied to
the BTS antenna port.
The receiver sensitivity values in a Horizonmacro cabinet with a legacy CTU2 and a legacy CTU
are the same for similar applications. This occurs because the Horizonmacro receive front-end
modules subdue the Horizonmacro receiver noise and the CTU2 has a receiver noise similar
to that of a CTU. The published Horizonmacro faded sensitivity values are -107 dBm for 900
MHz and -108.5 dBm for 1800 MHz.

• One RF connector to each CTU2, consisting of four inputs, one each for RxA, RxB, RxC
and RxD, as shown in Figure 2-3. The RF connectors are free floating to ensure correct
fitting of the CTU2 modules.
In 4 branch diversity, the harness routes RF signals from front SURF2 to CTU2 RxA and
RxB and signals from rear SURF2 to CTU2 RxC and RxD. Thus, 2 branch diversity requires
1 SURF2 module while 4 branch diversity requires 2 SURF2s.
• One connector to the backplane is supplied, for power from the PSUs.

Service Manual - Horizon II macro SURF2 dual band adapter
The optional SURF2 dual band adapter allows a 900 MHz SURF2 and a 1800 MHz SURF2 to be
installed in the same cabinet, thus providing dual band capability. The adapter may be installed
as a factory-fitted option or may be retrofitted in an existing installation.
Use of the optional dual band adapter requires BSS software load 1670.25.t4 and OMC-R
software load 1670.f.t4. Datagen software required is 1670.t20. Future availability is planned
for software load 1760.0b.
The dual band adapter (See Figure 2-5) is essentially a wiring harness and SURF2 support
frame that plugs into the SURF2 bay in the top panel. The two SURF2s then plug directly
into the adapter frame.
The wiring harness in the base of the adapter routes the signals from the front SURF2 to the
three CTU2 slots on the right side of the cabinet and the signals from the rear SURF2 to the
three CTU2 slots on the left side of the cabinet. Thus, only a maximum of three CTU2s can be
used for either 900 MHz or 1800 MHz operation. Thus, if a 1800 MHz SURF2 is installed in the
front slot and a 900 MHz is installed in the rear slot, 1800 MHz CTU2s must be installed in slots
0 to 2 and 900 MHz CTU2s must be installed in slots 3 to 5.

Service Manual - Horizon II macro Cabinet temperature control
The Horizon II macro cabinet contains equipment that has to be maintained within the
operational temperature range to ensure correct operation of the equipment and to guard
against premature failure of the individual components. The internal temperature is maintained
within these limits by internal fans.
Under overheat conditions, as the temperature rises above preset levels, temperature sensors
located in various areas within the cabinet provide alarms. A further increase in temperature
causes dual sensors, set at a higher threshold temperature to initiate PSU and cabinet shutdown.
The cabinet is restarted when the sensors are reset by a substantial fall in temperature. The
CTU2s have their own shutdown responses to overheating. The CTU2s shutdown if the ambient
temperature exceeds 57°C. The CTU2 shutdown response to overheating provides a second
level of cabinet protection, independent of the cabinet heat sensors.
Temperature sensors
The three cabinet temperature sensors are located above the transceiver rack (See Figure 2-8)
and consists of the following:
• One sensor provides a cabinet overtemperature alarm when air detected at the sensor
reaches 75°C. The alarm is processed by the alarm board and site controller unit, and
sent on to the OMC-R through the BSC.
• Two sensors shut down the PSUs to protect the cabinet equipment from heat damage when
air detected at the sensors reaches 85°C. Both sensors must detect excess temperature for
the shutdown to take place; this reduces the risk of an unnecessary shutdown. No prior
notification of shutdown is given to the OMC-R, except for the original 75°C sensor alarm.
This is because the site controller unit and CTU2s immediately lose power and functionality.
68P02902W96-E 2-21
Aug 2007
Cabinet temperature control Chapter 2: Cabinet structure
The cabinet is restarted when the overtemperature condition initiating shutdown has reset.
The two 85°C temperature sensors reset at 55°C. This re-establishes an earth point for the
PSU internal detectors connected to the cabinet heat sensors, which then reactivate the PSU
outputs. The site controller unit then reboots as in a normal power up.

All PSUs have the same external appearance and are located in the same position. Different
types are identified only by front panel labels.
The PSUs are fed from a backplane connector and use pulse width modulation to generate
output supply. A front panel switch (shown in Figure 3-2) disables the output, reducing the
input current as shown in Table 3-1.
There are several manufacturers of the PSUs. Each is fully compatible with the same
type of PSU from a different manufacturer.

CBC overview
The CBC provides circuit protection and manual isolation for all parts of the cabinet, except the
PSUs. It is mounted vertically in its own slot, to the right of the PSUs.
A cabinet door switch is mounted at the bottom of the CBC front panel. Opening the door causes
the switch to be released, sending a door open alarm signal to the alarm module.
The CBC is connected to the backplane to provide isolator switches and overload protection
for the equipment indicated in Figure 3-3.
Power for each protected module is supplied through the appropriate Circuit Breaker button.
Overload of any circuit results in the appropriate Circuit Breaker button tripping to the OFF
(out) position. The button can be pressed to the ON (in) position when the overload problem
has been corrected.
Each protected module (identified in Figure 3-3) can be isolated by pressing and releasing the
appropriate button to the OFF (out) position. Power is restored by pushing the appropriate
button to the ON (in) position.

Overview of RF equipment
This chapter describes the operation of Radio Frequency (RF) modules used in the Horizon II
macro cabinet. All descriptions are presented at a block diagram level.
Description of RF modules
The RF equipment and their respective functional descriptions are included in this section.
• Compact transceiver unit 2 (CTU2) on page 4-11.
The CTU2 can support either EGSM900 or DCS1800 frequency bands, depending on
which CTU2 type is installed.
EGSM900 and DCS1800 frequencies are not supported within the same CTU2.
The new CTU2D radios can support both SD and DD EDGE architectures, in addition to
the various modes supported by the legacy CTU2 radios.
Two versions of the SURF2 are available for the Horizon II macro. They are operated
in the following frequency band widths:
900 MHz frequency band.
4-2 68P02902W96-E
Aug 2007
Service Manual - Horizon II macro RF equipment description
• 900 MHz and 1800 MHz SURF2s cannot be used in the same cabinet
unless the optional dual band adapter is installed.
If the dual band adapter is installed, notice the following:
CTU2s installed in slots 0, 1 and 2 operate at the same frequency as
the front-mounted SURF2.
CTU2s installed in slots 3, 4 and 5 operate at the same frequency as
the rear-mounted SURF2.
Two SURF2s of same frequency band can provide 4 Branch Rx Diversity
capability, without the need for a specialized adapter. Front SURF2
signals are routed to CTU2 Rx A and B and rear SURF2 signals to
CTU2 Rx C and D.
These descriptions are intended to assist the reader in understanding the information on the RF
modules.
RF specications
Receiver RF hardware consists of the SURF2 module and the receive section of the CTU2. The
DUP is required for Rx filtering on the main (A) path and is optional for the Rx diversity (B) path.
The SURF2 module provides bandpass filtering and low-noise amplification for up to three
sectors, with 2 branch diversity receive antenna signals, together with switching to CTU2s.
4 branch diversity is possible as a field upgrade with two SURF2s and additional
DUPs for main (A) inputs of second SURF2 installed in the cabinet.
68P02902W96-E 4-3
Aug 2007
RF equipment description Chapter 4: RF modules
CTU2 Rx role
• Measurement of the Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) and signal quality.
• Channel decoding of the received data and processing of the recovered signal. Traffic data
is passed on to the site controller module for routing to the MSC.
• Digital interface to the SURF2 module, which controls selection by the SURF2 switch of
the receive signals from the appropriate antenna.
• Comparison and processing of additional receive paths from a second, and optionally third
and fourth, diversity antenna input to compensate for multi-path fading and interference.
CTU2 Tx role
• Digital modulation of transmit data onto the transmit radio channel signal.
• Final RF power amplification and output power level control of the transmit radio channel
RF signal.
• Channel encoding of the data to be transmitted, interleaving signal and traffic channel
data, as defined by ETSI.
Duplexers allow a single antenna to be used for both transmit and receive operations. Normally
duplexed RF signals pass through one antenna, with a second receive antenna to provide
diversity.

RF overview and antenna VSWR monitoring function Chapter 4: RF modules
RF overview
This section explains the RF functional blocks and additional antenna VSWR monitoring function.
The terminology, functionality, and optional capabilities are set out as a basis for understanding
more detailed descriptions in the RF module sections of this chapter.
RF main components
• SURF2.
• Tx block.
CTU2
900 MHz and 1800 MHz versions of the CTU2 are available. Each CTU2 can receive up to 4
Rx signals depending on the configuration of the radio. These inputs are converted into digital
voice or data. The Rx signals provide diversity of the Rx function from the MS (uplink).
The CTU2 generates a Tx data signal, translated from received digital voice or data, which is
transmitted by cable to the Tx block for transmission through the antenna to the MS (downlink).
CTU2D
The new CTU2D radios can support both SD and DD EDGE architectures, in addition to the
various modes supported by the legacy CTU2 radios. Similar to the CTU2, carrier A/B definitions
and nomenclature also apply to CTU2D.
SURF2 module
Two types of SURF2 module are available for use in the Horizon II macro. One provides 900
MHz reception capability and the other provides 1800 MHz reception capability.
Each SURF2 module accepts up to three pairs of antenna inputs. The SURF2 switches the
inputs to the appropriate CTU2s under the control of the database through the HIISC. There are
two inputs to each CTU2 for 2 Branch Rx diversity. There are four inputs to each CTU2 for 4
Branch diversity, with use of second SURF2 module.

Service Manual - Horizon II macro RF overview and antenna VSWR monitoring function
Tx block
Tx blocks filter the transmit signal for the required Tx band. They also use filters to enable the
Rx frequency signal to be passed to the SURF2, if one antenna is used for both Tx and Rx signals.
Purpose
The antenna VSWR monitoring function is used to detect faults in antennas or antenna path
connections. This is achieved by sending a known signal power level to the antenna and then
measuring the reflected power.
Hardware
The test signal for antenna VSWR monitoring is generated by the CTU2. The DUP contains a
VSWR monitoring circuit that monitors the reflected power. If the return loss from the antenna
port is less than 6 dB, a VSWR alarm signal is sent to the alarm module.
To support the 12 dB of static power control for VSWR monitoring, the minimum
threshold required to drive the duplexer is 27 dBm.
RF loopback
Purpose
The loopback test function is primarily used to identify faults within the RF system. The
loopback test function provides a diagnostic capability at the OMC-R, by creating a test signal to
identify if the fault is either of the following:
• Software (that the OMC-R can correct).
The result is a reduction in site assessment visits, and avoidance of unnecessary visits when
hardware is functioning correctly.
68P02902W96-E 4-7
Aug 2007
RF overview and antenna VSWR monitoring function Chapter 4: RF modules
Hardware
The RF loopback test function is essentially a hardware capability built into the CTU2. Software
instructions activate the test hardware, causing a loopback signal to be injected internally into
the Rx input of the CTU2 to test its receive section.
Software operation
The loopback test function is normally carried out under the control of the OMC-R.

Service Manual - Horizon II macro Compact transceiver unit 2 (CTU2)
Two versions of the CTU2 are available for the Horizon II equipment. One version
operates in the EGSM900 frequency band and the other operates in the GSM1800
frequency band.
The CTU2:
• Generates the RF frequencies required to perform the transmit and receive functions.
• Contains the digital circuits required for 32 timeslots of channel equalization, encoding
and decoding, and transceiver control logic.
The CTU2 provides the air interface between a BTS and MSs, with the following features:
• Capability of diversity reception (input from up to four antennas) which improves the
quality reception in the presence of multipath fading and interference.
• Frequency change on a timeslot basis for frequency hopping and equipment sharing.
CTU2 features
• Two or four branch Rx diversity. (Four branch diversity, available in Horizon II macro
ordered configurations only, requires 2 x SURF2 modules and a second SURF2 harness
cable to be installed. Four branch diversity is not retrofittable in the field).
• Hardware support for Adaptive Multirate (AMR) (upgrade required for pre-GSR7 software).

Compact transceiver unit 2 (CTU2) Chapter 4: RF modules
The CTU2 shelf is located below the basket for the Tx blocks in Horizon II macro, at the top
front of the Horizon II mini cabinet and at the top rear of the left side of the Horizon II micro
enclosure. This takes up the majority of the space in all types of cabinet.
A Horizon II macro cabinet can contain up to six CTU2s, a Horizon II mini cabinet up to two and
a Horizon II micro enclosure, only one. At least one CTU2 must be fitted in each cabinet. All
CTU2s in these cabinets must operate in the same frequency band (either 900 MHz or 1800
MHz). A Horizon II micro enclosure contains only one CTU2.
The CTU2 is considered a single field replaceable unit (FRU), which contains:
• CTU2 transceiver (XCVR) board.

Rx A (main branch) and Rx B (diversity branch) are the only Rx connectors used in
a cabinet using two branch Rx diversity, that is Horizon II micro, Horizon II mini or
Horizon II macro containing a single SURF2.
Rx C (branch 3) and Rx D (branch 4) are only used in Horizon II macro when a second
SURF2 is installed in the cabinet to provide four branch Rx diversity.

Service Manual - Horizon II macro Compact transceiver unit 2 (CTU2)
The CTU2 does not have a reset button. A reset is achieved by cycling the power:
• In Horizon II macro using the appropriate CTU2 circuit breaker on the CBC.
• In Horizon II mini using the appropriate CTU2 circuit breaker on the MCBM.
• In Horizon II micro by cycling the PSU.
In Horizon II macro the CTU2 Tx connection is a short SMA to SMA cable to the base of the
appropriate Tx block or feed-through plate. In Horizon II mini and Horizon II micro the CTU2 Tx
connection is either a long cable to the SMA connector on the back of the DUP/PGSM duplexer
or, in Horizon II mini only, a short cable to one of the N-type connectors of the CMB with longer
cables connecting the CMB to the duplexer.
The Tx cables have a 90° SMA connector at one end and a straight SMA connector at
the other end. The 90° end is designed for connection to the Tx port of the CTU2.
The TTY RS-232 serial port has three serial links onto the 9-way connector:
• Radio subsystem (RSS).
A test interface port on the CTU2 front panel provides access to critical test points for factory
calibration and maintenance.
The VCAT interface port on the CTU2 front panel also provides access to critical test points for
factory calibration and maintenance.

CTU2 Rx function
The receiver part of the CTU2 can accept two amplified and filtered receive antenna signals
from each SURF2 or Mini-SURF module (up to four Rx signals in total). These signals are
applied to inputs (branch A and branch B) of the CTU2 transceiver board.
The transceiver can be configured to provide double density receive capacity or 4 branch Rx
diversity (in Horizon II macro only). In double density mode, the receiver provides demodulation
of a main and diversity path for each of two RF channels. In 4 branch Rx diversity mode, the
receiver provides four independent Rx paths for one RF channel.
The input from the SURF2 or Mini-SURF module is filtered, amplified and down converted to
ensure the signal level and frequency range are correct for the next stage.
The CTU2 interface function provides the air interface timing and transceiver control circuitry
required for Rx (uplink) and Tx (downlink) control functions.
• Tx data interface including GMSK modulator which provides baseband data to the
transmitter.
The CTU2 supports two types of frequency hopping, synthesizer frequency hopping (SFH)
and baseband frequency hopping (BBH). This section provides an explanation of both types.
In either type, the BTS and MS switch channels after every transmit/receive (Tx/Rx) burst
pair. The difference between SFH and BBH is in the method by which channel switching is
achieved at the BTS.
68P02902W96-E 4-17
Aug 2007
Compact transceiver unit 2 (CTU2) Chapter 4: RF modules
BBH is not possible if the CTU2 is used in double density mode in a Horizonmacro
cabinet which is controlled by a MCUF site controller (refer to System Information:
BSS Equipment Planning (68P02900W21) for further details).
SFH is achieved by changing the frequency of each BTS carrier for successive timeslots,
under control of a predetermined algorithm. The BCCH frequency must be constant and must
be transmitted on all eight timeslots. A minimum of two carriers is therefore required for
SFH since for every timeslot, one carrier must transmit the BCCH frequency. The minimum
configuration of two carriers allows the full range of hopping frequencies to be deployed on one
of the two carriers. Uplink hopping is achieved in a similar manner by tuning each receiver to a
different frequency for each timeslot (channel). SFH can be used only with hybrid (wide band)
combining, or with a direct antenna connection to the transmitter(s).

Service Manual - Horizon II macro Compact Transceiver Unit 2 Double Density Edge (CTU2D)
This section provides the technical description of the CTU2D. The radio type CTU2D can be
configured in different operating modes (single, double and capacity) within one cell.
CTU2D is supported on Horizon II macro, Horizon II mini and Horizon II micro sites
only. When the master cabinets are Horizon II macro, Horizon II mini and Horizon II
micro, the extension Horizon II cabinets support CTU2D; legacy MCell and Horizon
extension cabinets do not support CTU2D and remain OOS.
The new CTU2D radios can support both SD and DD EDGE architectures, in addition to the
various modes supported by the legacy CTU2 radios. Similar to the CTU2, carrier A/B definitions
and nomenclature also apply to CTU2D. The following are the different edge modes that the
CTU2D radio supports:
• CTU2D SD: This mode is identical in operation to the existing CTU2 SD and is included
for reference only.
• CTU2D PWR: This mode is also known as ITS Mode whereby the CTU2 and CTU2D
operations are identical. Of the two carriers, if the TS on carrier A is supporting an
EDGE TS, then the corresponding TS on carrier B is blanked. Carrier B TS is capable of
supporting only TCH or GPRS PDs while the corresponding TS on carrier A does not
have an EDGE TS.
• CTU2D CAP: Of the two carriers, carrier A is fully EDGE-capable, while carrier B supports
GPRS/TCH. TS blanking is not required. The maximum output power of carrier A in 8PSK
mode is 10 W* and GMSK mode is 20 W*.
* The output powers listed are for 900 MHz frequency. For all other frequencies, the
output power may vary.

CTU2D features
• Two or four branch Rx diversity. Four branch diversity, available in Horizon II macro
ordered configurations only, requires 2 x SURF2 modules and a second SURF2 harness
cable to be installed. Four branch diversity is not retrofittable in the field.
The CTU2D maintains the same output power figures as CTU2, but with a -0/+2 dB
tolerance at mid-band in room temperature and -0/+2.5 dB tolerance applies for all
channels at extreme conditions.
The CTU2D is considered a single Field Replaceable Unit (FRU), which contains:
• CTU2D transceiver (XCVR) board.

The SURF2 is single band and two versions are available for use in the Horizon II macro cabinet:
• 900 MHz, for EGSM900 systems.
One or two SURF2 modules may be installed side by side in a slot at the rear of the cabinet
top panel. Two connectors on the underside of each module connect to individual SURF2
harnesses which provide connectivity to up to six CTU2s. Antenna connections are located on
the top of the unit.
• Dual band operation in a single cabinet is only supported if the optional dual
band adapter is installed.
• 4 branch receive diversity cannot be used with the dual band adapter.

SURF2 module Chapter 4: RF modules
The SURF2 module provides front end filtering, amplification, and matrix control of the RF
receive signal between the antenna and the CTU2. It has three antenna pair connections
providing frequency reception.
The SURF2 functional sections (See Figure 4-7) consist of filtering, amplification, splitting,
digital processing and power selection.
The SURF2 does not support loopback mode and antenna VSWR monitoring.
Each section is duplicated for the second diversity path except for the digital and DC power
section which is shared by the two diversity paths. There are three antenna pair inputs (ANT 0,
ANT 1 and ANT 2) for both of the diversity branches (Branch A and Branch B). There are six
outputs to the CTU2 for both of the diversity branches. There is also an output for an expansion
cabinet for ANT 0 on each branch.
• The SURF2 main branch (A) does not include any internal Rx band filters.
Therefore, Rx connections to the main branch (A) of the SURF2 must be through
a Rx path that includes a duplexer so that Rx filtering can be performed.
• This also pertains to the Branch A inputs identified as Branch C, of the optional
rear SURF2.
Digital codes are transmitted from the CTU2s to the digital section. The digital codes are
dissimilar in order that CTU2s programmed for the 900 MHz or 1800 MHz frequency bands can
be recognized and appropriate switching can be made to the required antenna for transmission
and reception.
The digital and power supply section is also responsible for manual overrides, alarms and DC
voltages.
Alarms
The alarm signal from the SURF2 is active low (0 V) and is multiplexed onto the branch 1 (and
branch 3) RF connection. An alarm generated at an individual CTU2 is caused by an unexpected
number of antenna select pulses being read. An alarm generated at all CTU2s connected to the
SURF2 is caused by one of the amplifiers drawing too much or too little current.

Service Manual - Horizon II macro SURF2 module
The SURF2 main branch (A) does not include any internal Rx band filters. Therefore,
Rx connections to the main branch (A) of the SURF2 must be through a Rx path that
includes a duplexer so that Rx filtering can be performed.
Figure 4-8 shows the interconnections between the SURF2 and the CTU2, both for 2 branch Rx
diversity (double density) and for 4 branch Rx diversity (single density).
4 branch diversity requires an optional second SURF2 and an additional DUP for
each sector.

Service Manual - Horizon II macro SURF2 module
The physical interface between the SURF2 and the CTU2 consists of two connections. They
are as follows:
• Bi-directional
The bi-directional connection is for the RF receive main branch (branch 1) and for digital
communication between the SURF2 and the CTU2.
• Directional
The directional connection is for the RF receive diversity branch (branch 2) only.
The physical interface for one carrier/four branch diversity requires two SURF2 modules and
one CTU2. It is similar to the interface for 2 carrier/2 branch diversity, with the third and fourth
diversity branches connected to the second SURF2 as shown in Figure 4-8.
As the CTU2 is backwards compatible with the Horizonmacro indoor (with restrictions), this
section explains how the Horizonmacro SURF interfaces with the CTU2.
Figure 4-9 shows the interconnections between the SURF and the CTU2 for 2 carrier/2 branch
diversity, with loopback (LPBK) and VSWR.

Transmit (Tx) blocks are located in up to six positions in the basket above the CTU2s. There
are four types of internal Tx blocks:
• DUP
Duplexer.
• PGSM duplexer
• HCU
• DHU
Two types of plate can be located in the basket, one as a blanking plate and one to interface
CTU2 Tx cables.
• Blanking plate
This ensures proper air flow and EMI shielding for an unused Tx block location in the
basket.
• Feed-through plate
This converts a single SMA connector to a single N-type connector, used for connecting a
Tx cable from a CTU2 to an expansion cabinet.
Unused Tx block locations must be covered with a blanking plate for correct air ow

The purpose of the DUP is to enable an antenna to serve Tx and Rx paths. This is achieved by
the use of bandpass filters within the duplexer.
The DUP also contains a VSWR monitor that can detect and generate alarms for transmit
antenna systems with a VSWR of 3:1 or worse.

The PGSM duplexer is used to block signals from collocated CDMA networks.
It is similar to the DUP, but provides a high level of rejection up to the bottom end of the Primary
GSM (PGSM) receive band, preventing the BTS from operating on the Extended GSM (EGSM)
channels.
The PGSM duplexer contains a VSWR monitor that can detect and generate alarms for transmit
antennas with a VSWR of 3:1 or worse.
There are two variants of the PGSM duplexer, the Motorola version and a Filtronic version. The
Motorola PGSM duplexer is identical to the DUP, the Filtronic version is approximately 35
mm taller.

Overview of digital modules Chapter 5: Digital modules
The digital modules contained in the Horizon II macro cabinet are as follows:
• Site controller unit (HIISC)
The HIISC provides the processing power, interfacing, and expansion capability for
the BTS.
The HIISC is the equivalent of (but not a replacement for) the MCUF in the
Horizonmacro. One or two HIISCs can be installed in the cabinet, the second one
(slave) provides redundancy in case of failure of the master. The master HIISC is
mounted in the first slot (0) on the right side of the cabinet. If fitted, the slave is
mounted in the slot (1) to the left of the master.
The XMUX is the equivalent of the FMUX in the Horizonmacro. A single XMUX is
incorporated into the HIISC for communication with the site expansion board.
• Alarm module
The alarm module provides all the monitoring and reporting facilities required for
site and customer alarms.
Figure 5-1 shows the position of the digital modules in the Horizon II macro cabinet.

Overview of digital modules Chapter 5: Digital modules
Redundancy
HIISC
The master cabinet must contain at least one HIISC (master), installed as shown in Figure 5-1.
A second HIISC (slave) may also be installed to provide redundancy.
Any situation which causes a switch to the redundant HIISC (For example master
HIISC failure or use of the swap_devices command) will cause a site reset.
XMUX
All expansion cabinets must contain at least one XMUX, installed in the same slot location as
the master HIISC in the master cabinet. A second XMUX may also be installed to provide
redundancy.
XMUX redundancy is coupled to redundancy of the HIISC in the master cabinet; that
is, the XMUX is only redundant if the HIISC is also redundant.
A site expansion board is only required when expansion cabinets are used.
• In such cases a site expansion board must be fitted in slot A (See Figure 5-1) in each
cabinet, expansion board redundancy is coupled to HIISC and XMUX redundancy.
• If the master cabinet has a redundant HIISC and the expansion cabinets have redundant
XMUXs, each cabinet (including the master) must also have a redundant site expansion
board installed in slot B.
Alarm module
An alarm module must be installed in each cabinet, master or slave. Alarm module redundancy
is not supported.

For communication between the HIISC and transceivers, follow the steps described in
Procedure 5-1.
1 The HIISC is connected to the CTU2s in the same cabinet through the
cabinet backplane. Where an additional slave cabinet is used, the data
streams for up to six external transceivers are multiplexed onto a single
line by the internal XMUX in the HIISC and then transmitted to the site
expansion board.
2 Fiber optic transceivers on the site expansion board convert the TTL signals
for transmission to the site expansion boards in the slave cabinets through
the fiber optic cables.
3 The receiving expansion board converts the data stream back to TTL signals
before it is forwarded to the XMUX for demultiplexing. The individual data
streams are then distributed to the appropriate transceivers.

The link to the redundant HIISC is similar to a transceiver link, but does not have the BBH
capability, or the link delay measurement and compensation facility. The 6.12 s and 60 ms,
signals are inserted into timeslots 8 and 16.
When the HIISC is in slave mode, timeslot and backhaul clock information is extracted from
the HIISC link and passed to the sync block.
The main processor HDLC link to the redundant HIISC can be routed in any unused timeslot(s)
of this link.

The ASIC can switch any timeslot on the redundancy link to any timeslot on any of the other links
connected to it such as the transceiver links, network links, redundancy link or processor links.
The following interface connections are located on the HIISC front panel:
• Compact flash card interface
The compact flash card slot is located on the front panel of the HIISC, and is used for:
Code Storage Facility Processor (CSFP) memory.
A standard TTY interface is provided on the front panel, of 9.6 kbit/s (8 bits, no parity, 1
stop bit (8 N 1)). A local maintenance terminal can be attached to this port to use the
MMI (Man Machine Interface) of the HIISC.
• CAL port
The CAL port on the front panel of the HIISC can be used to calibrate the sync block clock
through MMI commands. The 8 kHz reference output is used in the GCLK calibration
procedure (see chapter on FRU replacement procedures, later in this manual).
The front panel of the HIISC has two reset switches as shown in Figure 5-3 View of the HIISC on
page 5-8:
• FULL is a hard reset (power up - removes software from the memory).
• CPU is a soft reset (this resets the HIISC main processors, but the software remains
in RAM).
A hard reset results in the software being reloaded to the DRAM in the same way as normal
power up.
During the CPU (soft) reset, pressing CPU reset again causes a hard reset. Pressing
the CPU reset button twice thus has the same effect as a hard reset.

Horizon II site controller (HIISC) Chapter 5: Digital modules
The HIISC has two front panel LEDs (one green and one red) as shown in Figure 5-3 View of the
HIISC on page 5-8, with indications listed in Table 5-1.
Table 5-1 HIISC front panel LED indication
When red and green LEDs are ashing, the boot code is downloading into non-volatile
memory for software upgrade. Do not remove power or reset the cabinet until
downloading has been completed, as this will corrupt the non-volatile memory. If
boot code is corrupted, contact the Motorola Customer Network Resolution Centre,
requesting the boot code restoration procedure and the appropriate boot code le.
The HIISC provides a serial interface for the PIX outputs. These are routed to the cabinet alarm
board and enable relay contact control of external customer equipment.
If the high power external fan option is fitted to the unit then the PIX output D-type
connector must be terminated with the supplied dongle.

The 32 MByte SDRAM provides operational code and data storage for the main processors.
• Flash EPROM
The boot and executive code held in the flash EPROM initiates the HIISC on power up or
reset. If a compact flash card is fitted, operational code may be obtained from it and
copied to the SDRAM for execution. If no card or code is available, the operational code is
obtained from the BSC.
Before execution, the operational code held in SDRAM is checked with code held at the
BSC. The BSC downloads any changed code objects to the SDRAM.
After successful checking of the SDRAM operational code, the code is executed and the
compact flash card is updated with any changed objects.
If a compact flash card is available, then a code storage facility processor (CSFP) function
can be supported. A new software load can be downloaded in the background, without any
reduction in service, and stored on the compact flash card.
Once the complete load has been transferred to the compact flash card, a code swap can
be initiated. The site is reset and the new software brought into service (< 10 minutes). As
a precaution, the old version is held on the compact flash card to support a roll back to
the original version if required.

Dual mode backhaul LIU and framers are used, thus permitting the soft selection of E1 span
line connections.
The LIU/framer bridges between the internal 32 timeslot 2048 kbit/s TDM highway and the
external E1 2048 kbit/s TDM formats.
Timing extraction: A 2048/1544 kHz frequency reference and a 125 ms timing reference
is extracted by the framer/LIU from each span. This unit also performs jitter and wander
attenuation.
Each of the extracted references are fed into a switch that is under site control processor
supervision. This is used to select the reference used for phase locking the SYNC function.

Service Manual - Horizon II macro Horizon II site controller (HIISC)
The TSI is controlled by the site control processor (the NIU control processor is not equipped
with a TSI control interface). A 64 kbit/s timeslot switch is responsible (within the context of
backhaul and RSL requirements) for switching the following:
• Timeslots containing TRAU between the CTU2s and NIU framer / LIU.
• Timeslots containing RSL traffic between the NIU framer / LIU and NIU control processor.
• Timeslots containing NIU control messages and RSL traffic stripped of LAPD between the
NIU control processor and the site control processor.
Daisy chains: The HIISC supports backhaul daisy chain configurations. Traffic for upstream
sites is routed through the TSI, allowing for multiplexing over shared spans with local site traffic.
TRAU: Span lines transporting TRAU are switched to the appropriate CTU2 by the TSI.
The NIU control processor terminates the LAPD protocol layer for each RSL. It supports up to 8
separate and simultaneous LAPD connections. Each LAPD connection may be configured as
either a 64 kbit/s link or as a 16 kbit/s link.
The NIU control processor also configures and monitors the LIU / framer. To facilitate these
functions the NIU control processor has a control interface to the LIU / framer and a dual 32
timeslot 2048 kbit/s TDM interface to the TSI.
The NIU control processor terminates up to 16 full duplex HDLC channels - up to 8 for LAPD
transport to the BSC and up to 8 for RSL (including one for control) transport to the site control
processor.
Span type selection: The NIU defaults to the E1 interface type for all span lines.
Backhaul framing options: The NIU can enable and disable timeslot 0 CRC-4
multi-framing (enabled by default). Selection is supported by a message interface with the site
control processor. In either case, timeslot 16 multi-framing is disabled (allowing timeslot 16 to
used for TRAU or RSL traffic) and HDB3 line coding is used.
Backhaul N-bit facility: The NIU can enable and disable the use backhaul N-bits for alarm
indications. Selection is supported by a message interface with the site control processor.
68P02902W96-E 5-13
Aug 2007
Horizon II site controller (HIISC) Chapter 5: Digital modules
The site control processor is provisioned with a control interface for the TSI and two 2048
kbit/s TDM interfaces to the TSI. It is responsible for configuration of the TSI and control
and monitoring of the NIU.
The interface between the NIU control processor and the site control processor consists of NIU
control messages plus RSL messages stripped of the LAPD protocol. Each RSL connection to
the BSC utilizes a 64 kbit/s timeslot between the NIU control processor and the site control
processor.
NIU control messages, including those used to establish, reconfigure and disconnect RSL links,
are always carried within timeslot 0 on the NIU TDM port 0. These messages are multiplexed
with traffic comprising the first established RSL. The site control processor dynamically assigns
additional RSL connections to any of the other remaining 31 timeslots of NIU TDM port 0 or
32 timeslots of NIU TDM port 1.
LAPD links
• SAP.
• TEI.

Aug 2007
Service Manual - Horizon II macro Horizon II site controller (HIISC)
The span line timeslot and span line are not required as the site control processor
sets these directly at the TSI.
Additionally, the site control processor specifies the following internal connection parameters:
• NIU port and timeslot for the connection between the NIU control processor and the site
control processor.
• NIU port and timeslot for the connection between the NIU control processor and the TSI.
16 kbit/s RSLs
Any or all of the 8 RSL links can be configured at either 16 kbit/s or 64 kbit/s. When configured
at 16 kbit/s, a RSL occupies a bit-pair within a single timeslot. Four bit-pair positions are
supported; bits 0 and 1, bits 2 and 3, bits 4 and 5, bits 6 and 7.
For downlink flows, the TSI switches the entire timeslot containing the 16 kbit/s bit-pair onto a
NIU port timeslot. The NIU control processor recovers the LAPD from the designated bit-pair.
For uplink flows, the NIU control processor places the LAPD within the designated bit-pair and
timeslot on its TSI connection. The TSI then inserts this bit-pair into a designated timeslot,
while preserving the content of the other six bits within that timeslot.
LAPD link management events for each LAPD connection and span alarm events for each span
are reported to the site control processor by the NIU control processor.
Flow control
The interface between the NIU control processor and the site control processor supports flow
control. This enables the NIU processor to throttle RSL traffic from the site control processor in
the event of an overload condition. This condition may occur when 16 kbit/s RSL links are active
or when multiple heavily loaded 64 kbit/s RSL links are active.
To reduce the possibility of overloading, the processing delay within the NIU control processor
is minimized and the RSL message buffer depth is maximized. A fully loaded NIU (up to 8
established RSL links) maintains a maximum processor delay of less than 25 ms per message.
Delay is measured from receipt of the end of the incoming frame to the start of transmission of
the outgoing frame. The NIU control processor has 2000 kbytes of message buffers.

The expansion multiplexer (XMUX) module replaces the HIISC in expansion cabinets and
provides the interface to the master cabinet.
Two XMUX modules may be installed in a Horizon II macro expansion cabinet, one for the
master HIISC, and one for the slave. A Horizon II macro expansion cabinet only requires one
XMUX to connect up to six CTU2s within the cabinet (plus one for redundancy if required).
A Horizon II mini or Horizon II micro expansion cabinet only requires one XMUX to connect up
to two CTU2s within the cabinet.
If Horizon II expansion cabinets are added, the master cabinet and expansion cabinets
must also contain site expansion boards.
The XMUX can support up to six transceiver links. It uses a 16.384 Mbit/s Manchester encoded
serial data link, organized as 256 x 8-bit timeslots in a 125 microsecond frame. Manchester
coding is used to detect errors, indicated at timeslot 0 for each transceiver, enabling error
correction at the receiving XMUX.
68P02902W96-E 5-17

XMUX module Chapter 5: Digital modules
The HIISC transmits and receives a 2.048 Mbit/s data stream link to each operational CTU2. In
the master cabinet this is routed through the backplane, without the need for a XMUX.
If the CTU2 is in an expansion cabinet, the integrated XMUX in the HIISC combines the data
stream with up to five others and then sends the multiplexed signal to the site expansion
board through the backplane. The site expansion board performs a TTL to fiber optic signal
conversion, for onward transmission to the expansion cabinet through fiber optic cables.
At the expansion cabinet, another site expansion board converts the fiber optic signal back to
electronic form and sends this to the XMUX. The XMUX demultiplexes the signal and sends the
data stream to the appropriate CTU2.
The data stream return path from the CTU2 in the expansion cabinet is a reversal of the above.

Site expansion board Chapter 5: Digital modules
The site expansion board is an optional module that is required only for site expansion:
• In the Horizon II macro cabinet one or two boards may be installed, depending on whether
redundancy is required.
• In a Horizon II mini cabinet or Horizon II micro enclosure only one board can be installed.
The primary function of the expansion board is to convert TTL signals to fiber optic signals (and
vice versa) to enable the master and slave cabinets to communicate with each other.
The board contains the following I/O connectors (see Figure 5-7):
• 6 x fiber optic connectors (three Tx/Rx (OUT/IN) pairs), for connecting up to three
expansion cabinets. Each fiber optic link is full duplex 16.384 Mbit/s and is capable of
driving up to 1 km.

Alarm module Chapter 5: Digital modules
The alarm module can be replaced while the cabinet system is running (hot swap). This will
temporarily interrupt alarms, with the OMC-R receiving an additional alarm module out of
service alarm, which automatically clears upon correct insertion of the replacement module.
Alarms detected by the alarm module in an expansion cabinet are forwarded to the transceivers.
These then transmit the alarms to the HIISC in the master cabinet through the XMUX and site
expansion board in the expansion cabinet and the site expansion board in the master cabinet.
All alarm LEDs are green (OK) when equipment is functioning correctly or red (alarm) when
equipment is faulty. Table 5-2 shows the LED designations.

Ensure that the transmit RF power of the correct CTU2 has been locked using the
lock_device or shutdown_device command at the OMC-R or from a PC connected to
the HIISC, if a CTU2 is being tted to an unused slot in Horizon II macro or Horizon II
mini.
1 Insert the replacement CTU2 module, taking care to locate the module on the
guide rails. Push firmly into place.
2 Tighten both module attachment screws to 2.2 Nm torque, using a T20 Torx
driver.
The Tx cable has a 90° SMA connector at one end, and a straight SMA
connector at the other end. The 90° end is designed for connection to
the Tx port of the CTU2.
3 Screw the 90° SMA connector of the coaxial cable onto the Tx OUT SMA
connector at the top of the CTU2 front panel. Tighten to the 1 Nm torque.
4 Set the appropriate CTU2 circuit breaker to the ON position or, if Horizon II
micro, the switch of the PSU to OUTPUT ENABLE. The RADIO STATUS LED will
flash green until the CTU2 is unlocked, and then remain lit.
5 Enable the CTU2 transmit RF power by using the unlock_device or ins_device
command at the OMC-R or from a PC connected to the HIISC. The appropriate
Tx STATUS LED (yellow) will be lit if the CTU2 is transmitting.

The following equipment is needed to carry out the CTU2 calibration or recalibration procedures:
• An IBM compatible personal computer (PC).
Commands used
Table 7-3 lists the commands required to carry out this procedure.

Service Manual - Horizon II macro Preserving CTU2 calibration
This section describes the preserve CTU2 transceiver calibration feature, which uses commands
to store, display and clear calibration data. This feature is used on busy systems where there is
a need to replace a CTU2 quickly and thus reduce system down time during peak hours.
This function enables malfunctioning CTU2s to be replaced without the need to remove the cell
from service. The calibration offsets can be displayed and cleared using the disp_cal_data
and clear_cal_data commands.
The disp_cal_data command only displays offsets from the CTU2 if the DRI is in the
busy-unlocked (B-U) state. The GPROC CM database values are displayed when the CTU2 is
locked or not busy. If the calibration values have been cleared and the CTU2 is disabled, they
will not be available on the specific RAM of the CTU2 or the CM database, and the response will
be NO CALIBRATION DATA AVAILABLE.
68P02902W96-E 7-33
Aug 2007
Preserving CTU2 calibration Chapter 7: FRU replacement procedures
The store_cal_data command sets a flag to indicate that the preserve calibration feature is
enabled. When the CTU2 is unlocked and comes into service, the calibration values will be
copied from the RAM in the CTU2 into the GPROC CM database. The values from the RAM in
the CTU2 will only be copied to the database if there are no calibration values in the GPROC CM
database, and if the CTU2 has valid calibration data to be copied.
If the GPROC CM database has calibration values for that specific CTU2, when the CTU2 is
unlocked it will get a copy of these values from the CM database. Different calibration values
for the same CTU2 can exist in the CM database and the RAM in the CTU2, only when the
CTU2 is in calibration mode.
Care has to be taken when calibrating a CTU2. To ensure that the values in the RAM of the
CTU2 and CM database have the same calibration data, the existing values have to be cleared
using the clear_cal_data command before a calibration can be successful and the correct
calibration data saved. Calibration data is stored in the master CM database at the BSC, and is
used to update the CM database copy at the BTS if it is valid.
Calibration values in the BSC CM database are lost if a new database is downloaded. In this case
the CM database will be repopulated from the calibration data held in the CTU2(s), provided
that the preserve calibration feature is enabled.
The store_cal_data command is a one off enable of the preserve calibration feature and
cannot, subsequently, be disabled by a command. Disabling the feature can only be achieved
by downloading a new database.
The value 0800H must be cleared from all the paths (columns of data) stored in the
CTU2, otherwise the calibration data will not be uploaded to the CM database.
The clear_cal_data command removes the offsets from RAM and the database. To clear the
data from a CTU2 that is B-U in the network, the command is issued after the CTU2 is locked. A
new CTU2 being put into the network must first be allowed to become B-U and then locked,
only after this will the command clear the calibration data for that CTU2. This is explained in
the calibration procedure.

Service Manual - Horizon II macro CTU2 calibration data exchange procedures
The procedures listed in Table 7-2 are described here in detail. All three procedures assume
that the preserve CTU2 calibration data feature (described previously) has been enabled.
To replace a CTU2 using preserved calibration data, follow the procedures for CTU2
replacement given previously in this chapter.
This procedure assumes that the store_cal_data command has been used on the
CTU2 at some time previously while it was operational.
If valid calibration data stored in the CM database and invalid/no calibration data is stored in
the CTU2, then valid data is automatically downloaded into the RAM of the new CTU2. The data
is also stored in the non-volatile CTU2 memory.
If invalid/no calibration data stored in the CM database and valid calibration data is stored in
the CTU2, then valid data is automatically uploaded to the CM database.
This procedure is used to put a new CTU2 into service. If recalibration of a working CTU2 is
required, use the CTU2 recalibration procedures provided later in this chapter.

Calibrating CTU2 bay level offset tables Chapter 7: FRU replacement procedures
Follow this procedure to calibrate the bay level offset tables to compensate for the losses or
gains due to preselectors and RF cabling from the antenna inputs to the CTU2 input.
All units are factory calibrated. This procedure is thus necessary only if one of the following
changes occur:
• RF front end equipment is changed.
The procedures contained in Calibrating CTU2 bay level offset tables are to calibrate
a single CTU2. Repeat the procedures for each CTU2 affected by the changes listed
above.
• All test equipment and test leads must be calibrated annually by a recognized
laboratory.
• Test equipment and test leads must not be calibrated in the eld.
• Do not optimize Motorola cellular base stations with test equipment that is
beyond its calibration due date.
• Allow test equipment to warm up for 30 minutes before use.

Calibrating CTU2 bay level offset tables Chapter 7: FRU replacement procedures
Commands in the procedures in this section are frequently presented in the format: Command
<site_id> dri <cell_id> <DRI_number> 0
Where: is:
<site_id> the number of the site logged into.
<cell_id> the antenna/relative cell number (0
to 5 for Horizon II macro), (0 to 1 for
Horizon II mini) or (0 for Horizon II
micro).
<DRI_number> DRI number of the transceiver.
The RF path has to be prepared for bay level calibration. All DRIs in the site must be locked,
the CTU2 has to be reset, a dummy load must be connected if there is no antenna, and all
alarms must be disabled.
In the Horizon II macro, a transceiver may consist of one or two DRIs. If a CTU2 is configured
for double density mode (two DRIs), Tx cabinet calibration needs to be performed only on the
first DRI because the internal difference value keeps the power of the second carrier equal
to the first.
The internal difference value is not visible through the MMI command, and the TX
offset reported by disp_cal_data for the second DRI is a copy of the value for the first
DRI. Dual carrier calibration can verify that both carriers transmit at equal power.
The following will determine whether a CTU2 is configured as single or double density
transceiver and which DRI numbers correspond to which CTU2s.
At the BSC TTY, change to Level 3 and at the MMI-RAM> prompt type the following:
For single density CTU2s the output will look similar to the following:
7-48 68P02902W96-E
Aug 2007
Service Manual - Horizon II macro Calibrating CTU2 bay level offset tables
For double density CTU2s the output will look similar to the following:
In this case we see that DRI 0 1 is a double density CTU2 and is associated with DRI 0 2.
Thus, in this example, DRI 0 1 and DRI 0 2 are on the same CTU2.
In the case of the single density CTU2, cabinet calibration will be performed once on the DRI.
In the case of the double density CTU2, cabinet calibration is still performed on only one of the
two DRIs, but the other DRI must be locked for the procedures to be carried out. Furthermore,
the clear_cal_data commands must be issued for both DRIs.

Ensure that RF power is OFF, before disconnecting RF cables. Severe burns may result
if RF power is ON when RF cables are disconnected.
An earthing wrist strap must be worn when handling Tx blocks. An ESP earthing
connection point is provided on the top left at the front of the cabinet (refer to
Figure 7-1).
There are six slots for Tx blocks in the top panel basket of a cabinet, above the CTU2s. There
are three types of Tx block: DUP, HCU and DHU.
Replacing a Tx block requires removal of RF transmitter power for the CTU2(s) that connect
with the faulty Tx block. It is therefore advisable to perform this procedure during periods of
low traffic. Notify the OMC-R of imminent repair activity.
It is important to ensure that all Tx block/plate screw locations have a screw in place which is
tightened to the correct torque (Refer to Table 7-1 at the start of this chapter). This is to ensure
the maximum quality of EMC and general containment.

Service Manual - Horizon II macro Line interface unit board replacement
This section gives instructions for removing and replacing a Balanced-line Interconnect Board
(BIB/BIM) or a T43 Coaxial Interconnect board (T43/CIM). Since the procedure for both boards
is the same, this section refers to either board as a line interface unit board.
All channel trafc associated with a line interface unit board is lost during the
replacement procedure. If only one 2.048 Mbit/s link is affected by a line interface unit
board fault, replacement of the line interface unit board must be performed during
a period of low trafc so as not to interrupt service on the other 2.048 Mbit/s links
connected to the line interface unit board.
Replacement of a Line interface unit can take place only after the equipment has been taken
out of service, in agreement with the OMC-R.
The line interface unit is mounted on the interface panel in Horizon II macro and on the back
panel in Horizon II mini.
In Horizon II micro, the line interface unit is mounted on the side wall of the cable entry box,
this requires that the equipment ac power supply is isolated before opening the cable entry box.
The ac power to the enclosure MUST be isolated before the cable entry box covers
are removed.

CTU2 VSWR and cell site offset information Chapter 8: Site verication procedures
The objective of the VSWR check is to ensure that antenna feeders and connectors are properly
terminated. The power calibration procedure ensures that the pre-defined maximum transmitter
power output is correctly set at the RF connector of the equipment.
In the field, the procedure for setting the transmit output power involves using a set of
commands called Cell Site Power (CSPWR). The CSPWR, through its functionality of trimming
the BTS output power, can be used to account for any abnormalities that occur between the
CTU2 and the RF. The offset is reduced from the requested power level, so that a steady output
is maintained at the RF connector of the BTS for all the channels.
Complete the procedures, Preparation for output power calibration and VSWR check on page
8-11 before beginning the VSWR and cell site power calibration procedures.
The CTU2 transmit power, in Horizon II micro, is factory calibrated as a macro BTS
(potentially up to: 60 W for PGSM900, 63 W for EGSM900 and 50 W for DCS1800,
in single density high power mode), prior to delivery. Personnel carrying out BTS
calibration must be prepared to calibrate for macro BTS levels.
Refer to the following standards (USA and EC), or equivalent national and regional
regulations, when making calculations for RF equipment:
• ANSI IEEE C95.1-1991, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human
Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.
• CENELEC 95 ENV 50166-2, Human Exposure to Electromagnetic Fields High
Frequency (10 kHz to 300 GHz).
With the Horizon II micro BTS the max_tx_bts parameter value MUST be set between 5
and 21 or the transmit power will exceed the value that is specied for this equipment.
For a standard power option, setting the max_tx_bts to less than 5 can result in:

Service Manual - Horizon II macro CTU2 VSWR and cell site offset information
Test stages
VSWR checks ensure correct antenna matching and can prove the serviceability of the
antenna. Repeat the procedures for all antennas on site, including receive antennas.
Prepare the RF path for bay level calibration. DRIs in the site must be locked, the CTU2 has to be
reset, a dummy load must be connected if there is no antenna, and all alarms must be disabled.
In the Horizon II macro, a transceiver may consist of one or two DRIs. If a CTU2 is configured
for double density mode (two DRIs), Tx cabinet calibration needs to be performed only on the
first DRI because the internal difference value keeps the power of the second carrier equal
to the first.
The internal difference value is not visible through the MMI command, and the TX
offset reported by disp_cal_data for the second DRI is a copy of the value for the first
DRI. Dual carrier calibration can verify that both carriers transmit at equal power.
Optionally, the Tx power of both DRIs can be calibrated as described in the section, Preparing
to calibrate CTU2 transmit output power.
To determine the configuration of the CTU2 as single or double density transceiver and the
DRI numbers corresponding to each CTU2.

Aug 2007
Service Manual - Horizon II macro CTU2 VSWR and cell site offset information
Thus, in this example, DRI 0 1 and DRI 0 2 are on the same CTU2.
For the double density CTU2, calibration is performed on only one of the two DRIs, but the other
DRI must be locked for the procedures to be carried out. Furthermore, the clear_cal_data
commands must be issued for both DRIs.

CTU2 VSWR and cell site offset information Chapter 8: Site verication procedures
The CTU2 stores calibration data in a higher precision format (UWORDs) than the CTU
(UBYTEs). Since the two transceivers are interchangeable, the data is stored in the database in
a common format and the higher precision UWORD format is now used.
This does not affect the output format of the disp_cal_data command when the transceiver
is unlocked (UWORDs for the CTU2 and UBYTEs for other transceivers). However, if the
transceiver is locked, the data on it cannot be accessed nor can the transceiver type be
determined and therefore the data can only be displayed in the format in which it is stored
on the database (that is, UWORD format).
Use one of the following formulae to convert the appropriate disp_cal_data output to a gain
value (FEG):
• For the CTU2: FEG = 2's_complement_16_bit_value / 256
Use one of the following formulae to convert the gain value (FEG) to the UWORD or UBYTE
format:
• UWORD: 2's_complement_16_bit_value = round(FEG x 256)

Service Manual - Horizon II macro Normal CTU2 VSWR and cell site power (CSPWR) calibration
CTU2 cell site power calibration and VSWR checks can be carried out automatically
using the CINDY commissioning tool. Refer to the relevant CINDY user documentation
for details.
Two methods available for normal VSWR checking are described in this section; one automatic
and one manual. The reason for the two methods is as follows:
VSWR method 1 (automatic) When typing the cal_cabinet tx_cab command at the DSP
MMI prompt, it effectively executes a small script containing the following commands:
Before executing the cal_cabinet tx_cab command, it assumes that the synthesizers are in
normal mode (not locked), as is the case after the unit is powered up for the first time.
VSWR method 2 (manual) To set a specific channel, instead of defaulting to channel 23,
53 or 668, additional commands must be entered, rather than using the cal_cabinet tx_cab
command. One command sets the appropriate channel and the other switches the CTU2
output power on and off.
The first method for normal VSWR checking uses automatic channel selection. The cal_cabinet
tx_cab command automatically selects a midpoint channel number. However, manual channel
selection can be performed following the steps detailed in the manual test procedure.
• Perform Procedure 8-2 Automatic VSWR reverse power test on page 8-17.

Full power is transmitted during VSWR checks. Ensure that all personnel are clear of
the antenna. Do not carry out this check unless antenna installation is complete.
Ensure that the antenna is rated to allow full power to avoid damage to equipment.
To reduce the possibility of interference with other users, minimize the time that
the CTU2 is powered up.
Disable the CTU2 to ensure that RF is not present, then disconnect the antenna.
Connect a dummy load to the meter, ensuring that the meter is fitted with a 50
W element and connect the meter to the Tx output.

To calibrate CTU2 transmit output power carry out the following procedures:
• If required, perform Procedure 8-5Changing the max_tx_bts on page 8-22.
Personnel carrying out BTS calibration must be prepared to calibrate for macro
BTS levels.
Refer to the following standards (USA and EC), or equivalent national and
regional regulations, when making calculations for RF equipment:
• ANSI IEEE C95.1-1991, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to
Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300
GHz.
• CENELEC 95 ENV 50166-2, Human Exposure to Electromagnetic Fields High
Frequency (10 kHz to 300 GHz).
With the Horizon II micro BTS standard power option the max_tx_bts parameter
value MUST be set between 5 and 21 or the transmit power will exceed that
specied for this equipment.
Setting the max_tx_bts on a standard power unit to less than 5 may result in:
A high power option unit may have the max_tx_bts parameter set between 0 and 21.
• Perform Procedure 8-6Preparing to calibrate CTU2 transmit output power on page 8-22.

Normal CTU2 VSWR and cell site power (CSPWR) calibration Chapter 8: Site verication procedures
If the DRI does not become B-U because of the error, Tx Power Unachievable, then
the max_tx_bts of the cell needs to be temporarily modified to a lower power so that
the radio can come into service. At this point, calibration can be performed as normal.
Once the radio is calibrated in its desired configuration (single or double density,
Horizon or Horizon II equipment), the max_tx_bts can be returned to its desired value.
Execute the following command from the OMC, BSC or by remote login from
the PC:
chg_ele max_tx_bts <N> <site_id> cell_number=<CELL_ID>
1 Connect the 9-way to 9-way HIISC cable from the PC serial A port to the HIISC
TTY port.
2 At the PC, start the terminal emulator program.
3 Lock all DRIs in the sector. At the HIISC TTY, change to Level 3 and at the
MMI-RAM> prompt type:
lock_device <site_id> dri <cell_id> <DRI_number> 0
Always lock the transceiver providing the BCCH last as this prevents
the BCCH being switched to alternate transceivers.
