The OptiX RTN 980L long haul system is composed of a powerful TDM/Hybrid/Packet
integrated IDU 980L, a high-performance high-power radio frequency unit (RFU), and
a scalable branching unit (BU).

OptiX RTN 980L V100R007C00 supports split structure.

An IDU 980L connects to an RFU through an IF cable.

An RFU is directly mounted on a BU.

A BU connects to an antenna through a flexible waveguide. In space diversity


(SD) mode, a BU connects to an SD antenna through an elliptical waveguide.

RFU port: A branching unit provides four RFU ports so that RFUs can mount to it.

Main antenna port: The main antenna port is connected to the main antenna.

Main cascade port: The main cascade port is connected to the main antenna
port on the secondary branching unit

SD antenna port (available only on BU-SD models): The SD antenna port is


connected to the SD antenna.

SD cascade port (available only on BU-SD models): The SD cascade port is


connected to the SD antenna port on the secondary branching unit

Lifting eye: The lifting eye is used to tie with the lifting sling.

Bracket and hold hoop: The bracket and hold hoop fix a branching unit onto a pole.

When two branching units are cascaded, the branching unit that is directly connected
to an antenna is called the main branching unit and the other one that is not directly
connected to an antenna is called the secondary branching unit.

An RFU is used outdoors and has an integrated structure.

RFUs are available in two types: RFU-SD and RFU-nonSD.

RFU-SD: space diversity (SD) receiver and IF combination supported. It provides


three RF ports: Tx, Rx-main and Rx-SD.

RFU-nonSD: SD not supported. It provides two RF ports: Tx and Rx. It provides


a cost-effective solution for scenarios with relatively good propagation
conditions.

The above figure shows the appearance of an RFU-SD.

Before installing an IF jumper, turn off the ODU switch on the IF board. If an RG-8U IF
cable or a 1/2-inch IF cable is used, an IF jumper is required to connect the IF cable
and IDU; if a 5D IF cable is used, the 5D IF cable is directly connected to the IDU.

When connecting an IF jumper to an IF cable, you must test the connectivity of the IF
cable. On the equipment configured with IF 1+1 protection, the IF cable of the active
ODU must be connected to the IF jumper of the active IF board, and the IF cable of the
standby ODU must be connected to the IF jumper of the standby IF board.

If the XPIC IF board is used, the IF cable connected to the vertically polarized ODU
must be connected to the IF jumper on the IF board that processes vertically polarized
waves, and the IF cable connected to the horizontally polarized ODU must be
connected to the IF jumper of the IF board that processes horizontally polarized waves.

Use flexible waveguides when connections are required:

The branching unit and the main antenna

Two branching units

Elliptical waveguides can be connected to antennas directly or through flexible


waveguides.

The flexible waveguide can be bent only within its maximum twist angle and at the
side with a larger area. The E-bend radius and H-bend radius cannot be smaller than
the minimum bending radius.

To fix a flexible waveguide, it is recommended that you install three sets of fixtures;
one near either end and one in the middle of the waveguide. For details about the
installation position and method, see the usage instructions.

Step2: Connect a multimeter to the RSSI port on the ODU at the local end and measure the voltage value
VBNC.

Step3:Retain the remote antenna secure. Adjust the level adjustment screw. At the local end, rotate the
antenna widely in the horizontal direction.

If three signal peaks are tracked, adjust the azimuth of the antenna so that the received signal
level (RSL) reaches the peak value at position 2.

If two signal peaks are tracked, adjust the azimuth of the antenna to the middle of positions 4
and 5. Then, adjust the elevation of the antenna so that the three signal peaks such as the
signals on the line AA' can appear. Adjust the antenna so that the RSL reaches the peak value at
position 2.

If one signal peak is tracked, adjust the azimuth of the antenna to the middle of positions 6 and
7. Then, adjust the elevation of the antenna so that the three signal peaks such as the signals on
the line AA' can appear. Adjust the antenna so that the RSL reaches the peak value at position 2.

Step4: Adjust the elevation adjustment screw. At the local end, gently adjust the elevation and azimuth
until the RSL reaches the peak within the tracked range.

Step5: Repeat Steps 3 to 4 to ensure that three signal peaks are tracked in both horizontal and vertical
directions. When the local RSL reaches the maximum peak value, tighten the local antenna.

Step6: Adjust the remote antenna to ensure that the RSL at the local end and the RSL at the remote end
reach the peak value. Check the status of the ODU indicator on the IF board. The ODU indicator on the IF
board is off. If the ODU indicator on the IF board is yellow and blinks every 300 ms, continue aligning the
antenna.

Step7: Tighten all the screws of the antennas after the alignment is completed.

Step1: Power off the vertically polarized ODUs at both ends of a radio link, power on the horizontally
polarized ODUs at both ends of the radio link. This ensures that the antennas at both ends transmit
horizontally polarized signals.

Step2: Adjust the azimuth and elevation of the antennas at both ends by referring to the description
inAligning Single-Polarized Antennas, and ensure that the main lobes of the horizontally polarized
signals are aligned with the antennas.

Step3: Use a multimeter to measure the RSL (P1) on the RSSI port of the horizontally polarized ODU at
the local end.

Step4: Power on the vertically polarized ODU at the local end. Use a multimeter to measure the RSL on
the RSSI port of the vertically polarized ODU. Release the holder of the feed boom gently, and turn the
feed boom gently until the RSL reaches the minimum value (P2). The calculated XPD1 (XPD1 = P1 - P2)
cannot be less than 30 dB. Record the current angle (D1) of the feed boom.

Step5: Power off the horizontally polarized ODUs at both ends of the radio link, and power on the
vertically polarized ODUs at both ends of the radio link. Adjust the azimuth and elevation of the antennas
at both ends by referring to the description in Aligning Single-Polarized Antennas, and ensure that the
main lobes of the vertically polarized signals are aligned with the antennas.

Step6: Refer to Steps 3 and 4 to ensure that the calculated XPD2 (XPD2 = P3 - P4) is equal to or more
than 30dB. Record the current angle (D2) of the feed boom.

Step7: Repeat Steps 1 to 6 to adjust the feed boom gently (ranging from D1 to D2), and ensure that
XPD1 and XPD2 are equal to or more than 30 dB.

Step8: Tighten all the screws of the antennas after the alignment is completed.
