Power supply:
The Case-L remote Unit is available in two versions: one feeded by universal
mains (85 to 265 Vac), the other by negative power supply (-72 to -36 Vdc):
in figure 3.31, the 85/220 Vac connector and the -72/-36 Vdc connector are
described. Power feeder is always internal. The power cable is always
included in the Case-L remote unit kit
Warnings (to be read before remote units are
installed)
Dealing with optical output ports
The Case-L remote unit contains semiconductor lasers. Invisible laser beams
may be emitted from the optical output ports. Do not look towards the optical
ports while equipment is switched on.
Choosing a proper installation site for the remote units
Case-L remote units have to be installed as close as possible to the
radiating antennas, in order to minimize coaxial cable length, thus
reducing downlink power loss and uplink noise figure.
When positioning the Case-L remote unit, pay attention that the placing of
related antennas should be decided in order to minimize the Minimum
Coupling Loss (MLC), so as to avoid blocking.
The Case-L remote unit is intended to be fixed on walls or other flat
vertical surfaces.
Handling optical connections
When inserting an optical connector, take care to handle it so smoothly
that the optical fibre is not damaged. Optical fibres are to be single-mode
(SM) 9.5/125µm.
