FlexWave Prism System 1.4 DART CARDS Digital/Analog Radio Transceiver (DART) cards provide the interface between base station equipment and the SeRF. There are three types of FlexWave DART cards: • Classic • Single SuperDART • Dual SuperDART. FlexWave DARTS are band specific assemblies available in the versions listed in Table 1-1. Table 1-1.
DART Cards 1.4.1 DARTs and Host Units The Host can support up to eight Classic DARTS and/or Single SuperDARTs or up to four Dual SuperDARTs. Figure 1-5 provides generic representations of Classic DARTS or Single SuperDARTs and Dual SuperDARTs. Generic representation of a Classic DART or Single SuperDART Genreic representation of a Dual SuperDART 77073-076 Figure 1-5. DART Cards FlexWave Prism Host, Remote and EMS 5.
FlexWave Prism System Figure 1-6 shows the possible slot assignments for Single and Dual SuperDARTs, and where slot-divider bars are located. • A Classic DART or Single SuperDART can be installed in each of the eight slots in the Host. • Dual SuperDARTs occupy two slots (1/3, 2/4, 5/7 or 6/8). • Dual SuperDARTs cannot occupy slot combinations 3/5 or 4/6. • Any combination of DARTs may be installed.
DART Cards 1.4.2 DARTs and Remote Units The Remote DARTs are encased in its RF Module. Each RF Module will have up to two Classic DARTs or Single SuperDARTs, or one Dual SuperDART, and there can be up to: • one RF Module in a Single-Band chassis • two RF Modules in a Dual-Band chassis • three RF Modules in a Tri-Band chassis • four RF Modules in a Quad-Band chassis.
FlexWave Prism System 1.5 E911 SUPPORT The DART type determines the maximum number of links, where there can be up to 8 DARTs for a 35MHz spectrum and up to 4 DARTs for a <75MHz spectrum. E911 support may be achieved by using a configuration similar to the one shown in Figure 1-8. Remote simulcasting in this configuration requires analog splitting and combining to and from the individual Host DARTs.
Fiber Optic Transport 1.6 FIBER OPTIC TRANSPORT In a typical Prism system the Host is connected to the Remote using two single-mode optical fibers. One fiber is used to transport the forward path h optical signal and a second fiber is used to transport the rev erse path h optical signal. With the diversity option, the div ersity rev erse path h optical signal is sent on the same rev erse path fiber.
FlexWave Prism System The available RF bandwidth per timeslot is shown in Table 1-2. Table 1-2. Number of Timeslots Available RF Bandwidth Maximum Contiguous RF Bandwidth (MHz) Classic DARTs Single and Dual SuperDARTs 1 5 6 2 12.
Timeslots Versus Bandwidth 1.7 TIMESLOTS VERSUS BANDWIDTH Each fiber pair supports 12 timeslots, or up to 75 MHz of bandwidth. Table 1-2 shows the maximum bandwidth versus the number of timeslots. If more than 70 MHz is required per Remote, up to three additional fiber pairs can be brought to the Remote to get up to up to 280MHz per Remote (or 300MHz if all four are GSM-1800). This supports applications where there are two Classic DARTs or Single SuperDARTs or one Dual SuperDART in a Remote RF Module.
FlexWave Prism System 1.8 BANDWIDTHS In the FlexWave Prism system, there are different Bandwidths from which to select, ranging from 5 to 75 MHz. The different bandwidths allow you to configure the system to use any contiguous or non-contiguous blocks within the 35 MHz of a single Host 6-timeslot DART or 60-75 MHz using a 12-timeslot DART. DART bandwidth options are shown in Table 1-3.

FlexWave Prism System 1.9 AWS AND PCS BAND OPTIONS The Dual-AWS and Dual-PCS DARTs allow you to span non-contiguous bands: • the Dual-AWS DART comprises two 6-Timeslot AWS DARTs that span the full 45 MHz of the AWS band • the Dual-PCS DART provides two PCS blocks over the entire 70 MHz PCS spectrum. In the forward path, the two Remote DARTs are summed together before being sent to the Linear Power Amplifier (LPA).
AWS and PCS Band Options PCS Configuration Example: If the application requires both the A and C block, in the Remote the forward path of the PCS A band is combined with the forward path of the PCS C band and these signals are sent to the LPA to be amplified. In the reverse direction, the Duplexer/LNA passes/amplifies the entire PCS band.

Prism System Components 2.1 FLEXWAVE PRISM FAMILY OVERVIEW The ADC FlexWave Prism family of products is a Distributed Antenna System (DAS) that provides ADC’s patented technology—bidirectional transport of digitized RF spectrum over fiber. The high-speed digitalization of a wideband portion of spectrum allows for transport of RF signals over extended distances, without the RF degradation that normally results when analog systems are impacted by optical effects.
FlexWave Prism Family Overview The basic function of FlexWave Prism simulcast (point-to-multipoint) is to transport, via fiber optic cable, RF signals from a Base Transceiver Station (BTS) to multiple antenna interfaces allowing communication to a mobile device (see Figure 2-2). Up to 8 simulcast Remotes are supported.
Prism System Components 2.2 FLEXWAVE PRISM HOST UNITS The Host is designed for maximum RF flexibility to address Carriers’ changing and evolving spectrum needs, making the most use of cost efficient resources for serving multiple remotes such as simulcast architecture and sharing of common functions such as power, control and management over multiple Hosts. Each Host may be interfaced with one or more Base Transceiver Station (BTS).

Prism System Components 2.2.4 Host System Card The System Card contains the fan controller, the clocking circuitry (internal or external), the temperature sensor and the DCC contacts. Its front panel provides connections for alarm outputs, 10 MHz output, and status LEDs. This card may be used to provide a 10 MHz clock reference to which the SeRF's Master clock is frequency locked from the internal crystal oscillator.
Prism Remote Units 2.3 PRISM REMOTE UNITS The Remote, shown in Figure 2-4, controls RF emissions, interfaces with the FlexWave Host and performs the optical to electrical conversions for transport to the antennas. The Remote is an environmentally-sealed unit that houses the electronic assemblies such as the DART board and the Power Amplifier, and seals out dirt and moisture. The Prism uses fans located on the top of each unit to cool the chassis.
Prism System Components The FlexWave Remote supports or provides the following basic functions: • Receives on the forward path the digitized spectrum from the Host and converts the spectrum back into an RF signal to be distributed via an externally mounted antenna system. On the reverse path, the Remote digitizes the designated RF spectrum and digitally transports it over single mode fiber or Millimeter Wave (MMW) to the Host. • Provides RF interface (antenna port) for the antennas.

RF Modules in Prism Remotes Page 38 © 2009 ADC Telecommunications, Inc FlexWave Prism Host, Remote and EMS 5.
Prism Remote Units A Prism can support up to four RF Modules, dependent on the chassis size. Each RF Module can comprise any of the following DART combinations: • one Classic DART or one Single SuperDART • two Classic DARTs • two Single SuperDARTs • one Classic DART and one Single SuperDART • one Dual SuperDART. A Prism Remote can therefore comprise up to eight single-slot DARTS or up to four Dual SuperDARTs, dependent on the Remote chassis size. The Remote RF Modules are not field serviceable.
Prism System Components 2.3.2.1.1 Remote Duplexer and Low Noise Amplifier The Remote has an internal Duplexer that is optimized to provide the desired RF band-pass filtering and in-band equipment isolation between FWD and REV paths. The Duplexer contains up to two REV path Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA for PRI and/or SEC reverse paths). Each LNA (shown in Figure 2-8) is a high quality low noise amplifier providing the Prism reverse path with nominal 30dB REV gain and system NF of 5dB per RX path.

Installing the WDM Host Module Mounting Shelf and WDM Host Module 3.4 INSTALLING THE WDM HOST MODULE MOUNTING SHELF AND WDM HOST MODULE A bi-directional wavelength division multiplexer (WDM) system is available as an accessory item for the Prism system. If the Prism configuration does not require the use of a WDM sy stem, skip this section and proceed to “Install Host in Equipment Rack” on page 66. 3.4.
Installing the Host Unit The Host WDM module is mounted within a powder-paint coated sheet metal enclosure. A straight LC-type optical connector port is provided for connecting the forward/reverse path optical fiber to the WDM module. A pair of fiber patch cord leads with LC-type connectors are provided for connecting the WDM module to the forward and reverse path optical ports on the Host SeRF card. The WDM Host module mounting shelf and Host module are shown in Figure 3-5. 22390-A Figure 3-5.
Installing the WDM Host Module Mounting Shelf and WDM Host Module Each WDM module supports a single Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) port on the Host, but a WDM chassis can support up to 8 WDM modules, which allows it to be shared among multiple Hosts depending on the SFP port counts and system configuration. That is, the 8 modules allows a fully loaded Host with 8 SFP modules or multiple partially-loaded Hosts (for a maximum of 8 total SFPs).
Installing the Host Unit When multiple Hosts require connection to a WDM system, the Host module mounting shelf and the Hosts should be mounted in the equipment rack as shown in Figure 3-8. This configuration allows the fiber patch cord leads from the two Host modules to be connected directly to the optical ports on any one of the four Hosts.
