ConnecttheRFModuleCables
11 PositionthecablessothattheyareundertherightedgeoftheRFModule,pointingup.
12 FollowtheruleslistedbelowwhenconnectingtheRFModulecables.
• AlwaysprovidedateachRFModuleshelfarefivecables:
– onePower(PWR)cable
– twoRFcables(TX0/RX0)and(TX1/RX1)
– twohigh‐speed‐datacables,whichinthisdocumentarereferredtoasLow‐Voltage
DifferentialSignaling(LVDS)cables.
• LVDScableslabeledPRIMandDIVshouldalwayseitherbeconnectedorstrainrelievedto
adjacentcables.Thisprotectsagainstthecablegettingcaughtinthechassisdoor.
• MakesurethetwoLVDScablesarefullyseatedandlockedintotheirconnectors.
• IfyouareinstallingamoduleintoaDiversityChassis,bothRFcableslabeledMODN
TX0/RX0
andMODNTX1/RX1willbepopulated.
• ForDiversitymodules,allcablesaretobeconnected.
• WhenyouorderaDualSuperDARTmodule,connectbothLVDScables(PRIMandDIV)and
the
RFTX0/RX0cable.
• Adheretoaminimumbendradiusof1‐inchforallRFcablesfromtheintegratedcable
guidetothemodule.
• Maintainadequatestrainreliefdistancesfromconnectionpointstothemodule.
• WheninstallingDual‐SlotRFmodules:
– TheupperRFModuleshelfwilleithernotbepresent(factoryinstalledmodule)orwill
beremovedpriortoinstallation(fieldinstalledmodule).
– ForDual‐Slotmodules,onlytheRFcablelabeledMODNTX0/RX0onthelowermodule
slotwillbeconnectedtothemoduleconnector
TX0/RX0.
– TheMODNTX1/RX1cableshouldbesecuredtothecablebundleusingtheprovided
cabletie.
– EnsurethattheMODNTX1/RX1cableandconnectoraresecuredsothattheywillnot
bepinchedorpreventthePRUdoorfromclosing.
– ThePower(PWR)cableandtwoLVDScablesoftheupperRFModuleslotwillnotbe
used.ConnecttheRFcablelabeled
MODNTX1/RX1totheconnectorlabeledN/Conthe
upperhalfofthedouble‐slotmodule.Useoneoftheprovidedcabletiestosecurethe
MODNTX0/RX0RFcable,bothLVDScablesandthePower(PWR)cabletotheRFcable
labeled
MODNTX1/RX1,ensuringthatthecablebundlewillnotbepinchedorprevent
thePRUdoorfromclosing.
