“Only qualified personnel should handle the DAS equipment. Any person involved in installation or service of the DAS should understand and follow these safety guidelines.” - Obey all general and regional safety regulations relating to work on high voltage installations, as well as regulations covering correct use of tools and personal protective equipment. - The power supply unit in repeaters contains dangerous voltage level, which can cause electric shock.
- A readyily accessible disconnect device shall be incorporated external to the equipment. - This power of this system shall be supplied through wiring installed in a normal building. If powered directly from the mains distribution system, it shall be used additional protection, such as overvoltage protection device - Only 50 ohm rated antennas, cables and passive equipment shall be used with this remote.
- Access is through the use of a TOOL or lock and key, or other means of security, and is on trolled by the authority responsible for the location. - Maximum antenna gain for downlink antenna after accounting for any cable losses should be less than 2 dBi. - Notice! Be careful not to touch the Heat-sink part due to high temperature. - Use of unauthorized antennas, cables, and/or coupling devices not conforming with ERP/EIRP and/or indoor‐only restrictions is prohibited.

3.1 General The following figure shows the block diagram of HERCULES Remote Unit. Figure 3.
3.2 Component of HERCULES Remote Unit The following figure shows internal configuration of Remoe Unit with fully RF equipped. Figure 3.2 – Inside of Remote Unit Remote Unit receives TX optical signals from Head-End and converts them into RF signals. The converted RF signals are amplified through High Power Amp in a corresponding RDU, combined with Multiplexer module and then radiated to the antenna port.

4.1 Remote Unit Installation 4.1.1 Remote Unit Enclosure installation Remote Unit is designed to be water- and dirt-proof. The unit has the structure of one-Body enclosure. It satisfies water-proof and quake-proof standards equivalent of NEMA4(IP66). Basically Remote Unit is attached with wall mountable bracket. Remote Unit can be mounted into either of wall or on a pole. Figure 4.
Figure 4.
Remote Unit Wall Mount Installation Remote Unit’s installation bracket is attached on Enclosure when is delivered. It doesn’t need to remove bracket to install enclosure. simply after installing 4 of M12 mounting bolts, secure 4 mounting bolts tightly First, install 2 of M12 mounting bolts roughly half way on the enclosure and install enclosure over the bolts and secure tightly. Second, install 2 of M12 mounting bolts under the enclosure and secure tightly. Figure 4.
Remote Unit Components Remote Unit has the following components: No.
4.1.2 How to expand ADD ON ROU at the Remote Unit Remote Unit can expand ARU up to 1. The three item is needed for connection between Remote Unit and ADD ON ROU. ADD ON ROU’s components additively have 3 item except for enclosure like below Accessories Description Qty 1 TX RF Cable 1 2 RX RF Cable 1 Specification Remark N(M) ST to SMA(M) ST_1.5M N(M) ST to SMA(M) ST_1.5M IEC 61076-23 I/O Cable 1 101(8pin_F) ST_1.
For expanding ADD ON ROU at the Remote Unit within the proper cable length provided. The cables between Remote Unit and ADD ON ROU have each 1.5m length. Figure 4.4 – Connection diagram between Remote Unit and ADD ON ROU (AC type) Figure 4.
4.1.3 Remote Unit Power Cabling AC Power Remote Unit supports only AC120V of input power. Provided outside power cable is only one type. The pin discription of AC port is below. You should connect exact polarity of AC. Port outlook MS Connector numbering Name Description A AC_H AC Hot B AC_N AC Neutral C N.C Not Connected D F.G Frame Ground Check if the connection is the same as one seen in the table above and make sure to turn the power ON.
4.1.4 Remote Unit Ground cabling The Grounding terminal is located at the bottom of Remote Unit enclosure fixed by M6 screw. Compression terminal is attached already when is delivered. The recommended thickness of cable is AWG#6 copper grounding wire Figure 4.6 – Location of Ground Terminal The specification of compression terminal is like below Figure 4.
The required part number is JOCT 16-6 supporting AWG 6. The way to install the grounding cable comply with below procedures Figure 4.8 – How to install Ground Terminal The procedures are 1. Loosen a two M6 screws and then take compression terminal off 2. Insert AWG#6 Grounding Wire into terminal and then compress a terminal using tool 3. Assemble the terminal which made in step “2” using 2xM6 screws 4.

4.1.6 Mounting of MRDU Remote Unit has slots to enable up to six MRDU modules to be mounted in it. You can mount a MRDU into designated slot surely. It is not possible to provide services with a MRDU module alone; you need to connect MRDU cavity duplexer antenna port with CU’s designated port. Installation Diagram for MROU Module Assembly 1) Install each MRDU into its designated location as shown in the graphic.
The Remote Unit holds a maximum of 6 MRDUs. Guide brackets on the bottom of each MRDU slot simplify installation as described below. MRDU installation requires a +No.1 tip size screwdriver. Figure 4.
The procedures are 1. Lift the MRDU onto the guide bracket and ensure the MRDU is level left to right 2. Push the MRDU into the corresponding slot in the direction of the heat sink while levelling the MRDU to guide bracket 3. Make sure the MRDU is firmly inserted into the corresponding slot. Tighten the 4 corner screws to secure the unit 4. Install MRDU blank cards in all unused slots in the remote.
Figure 4.
The procedures are 1. Remove dummy bolt attached at FAN Port 2. Connect internal FAN cable to the FAN Port, and connect with the connector located on the top of PSU. 3. Install fan unit to the bottom of 5W remote with aligning heatsink pin to the guided groove. 4. Secure the fan unit by tightening M6 screw located on the left corner. 5. After securing the FAN Unit, connect the cable from FAN unit to FAN port.
