Background
The fourth-generation (4G) mobile communication network will make a great
breakthrough in communication speed, bandwidth, converging coverage, seamless
connection, and extensive application. It is the truly broadband wireless mobile
communication and information highway. The combination of the high-speed
broadband mobile communication system and the modern high-speed Internet will
admittedly bring a revolutionary change to society, life, economy, and so on. The
highlights of the mobile wireless technology field are blooming, the renewal of
technologies is increasing and the standards are emerging. The perfect marriage of
mobile and broadband, with proper mature and commercial time of the relevant
standards, makes WiMAX become one of the key 4G mobile communication
technologies, and brings infinite vitality to the development of broadband technologies.

As viewed from the network architecture and application networking, mobile WiMAX
(IEEE 802.16e) is essentially a cellular network oriented to broadband data transmission
and is used to implement certain mobility. WiMAX advocates broadband mobile services
to implement broadband access at a lower cost, thus allowing the users in hotspot or
suburban areas to enjoy the convenience of mobile broadband. Figure 3 depicts the
schematic diagram of the WiMAX network.

At present, network construction faces two challenges: (1) take measures to save
equipment room construction investment and shorten construction time, and (2) as
frequencies increase, the use of traditional indoor macro BS mode results in the large
RF cable loss. Therefore, the radio BS design trends to separate the digital baseband
part from the RF part, which is call RRU + BBU structure.
This document is primarily oriented toward the centralized network structure and
introduces the remote RF unit in this network structure.

Forward service
The CSN signal is sent to the BBU through the AGW. The BBU is responsible for
encoding and modulation of the signal. After that, the signal is sent to the R9100s
through fiber-optical. After the R9100s perform IQ modulation, up-conversion, and
power amplification, the signal is sent to the MSs through the antennas.
Reverse service
The MS signal is received by the R9100s through the antennas. The R9100s
perform down-conversion and IQ demodulation for the signal. Then the signal is
sent to the BBU through the fiber-optical for decoding and demodulation. After that,
the signal is sent to the CSN through the AGW.

Security Indexes
ZXMBW-R9100 is compliant with EN60950 and UL1950 standards. The parts not
mentioned in this file are compliant with EN60950.
Marks
The board connectors/plugs, jumpers, switches and test point, the power supply
and the ground are marked clearly, without obstacles of components, including fuse
mark, protection ground mark, warning label, power label, laser label, safety label,
energy label and heavy module label. All the marks meet the requirements of safety
codes of China or the purchasing country (region). All the marks are clear, complete,
easy to understand, and not erasable.
Overturn protection
The rack is arranged symmetrically to enhance the stability of the equipment
provided that the performance indices and heat design requirements are met. In
normal conditions, the equipment will not turn over at a plane tilted at 10 degrees.
The shell stands external hit.
The rack and the shelf are fixed reliably and are not loose.
Fire protection
The shell of the BSS, PCB board, cables, power cables that are related to the antifire regulations use the inflammable materials. The combustion time after these
materials are lit is compliant with the safety standards. The circuit design takes
over-current and over-voltage protections into account to prevent overhead caused
by normal or faulty conditions. There are fuss and anti-arc resistor protection in the
power supply to further prevent overheat and fire caused by shorted circuit. The
overall design ensures that the internal flame will not extend to the shell, that is, the
shell isolates the fire.
22
Lightning protection
2008 ZTE Corporation. All rights reserved.
ZTE ConfidentialProprietary
The system has anti-lightning measures. The working ground and the protection
ground are reliable and the grounding resistance of the protection ground is less
than 10 ohm. The protective grounding terminals are capable of anti-erosion. The
grounding cable is 8AWG in size. The insulation layer of the grounding cables is in
yellow/green. The bolt that connects the protection ground and the shell (or PCB)
has a tooth washer to make the protection ground more reliably connected.
IP Protection Class
The IP protection class is IP65.
Environmental impact
The equipment uses materials that do not product gases that harm either human
beings or the atmosphere or the environment.
The noise produced by the ventilation fan of the equipment will not cause harmful
disturbances to the technicians.
The spurious emission produced by the equipment body or the spurious conduction
caused by the antenna port will not harm the technicians or the environment.
