Macro Base Station Installation Procedures (NPM-1000)
Connect the Ethernet Cables
The Ethernet cables are CAT5 cables with RJ-45 connectors on each end. The cables connect radio
sector controllers (RSC), utility bus controllers (UBC), Ethernet switches (SW), and edge routers. The
two Ethernet switches are connected together with a cross-over cable; the other cards use
straight-through cables.
NOTE: The Ethernet cabling is done via rear I/O cards. The Ethernet ports on the
front-facing cards are not used.
 To connect the Ethernet cables
1 Connect the Ethernet cables to the Ethernet switches. Table 4.10 shows the origin and termination point
of each cable.
NOTE: See your field engineering package for information about your edge router
cable connections.
