3.8 WCDMA units

Each WCDMA unit within the Nokia UltraSite EDGE BTS has one LED to

indicate its operational status, with the exception of the WAF and WSC unitswhich have two LEDs.

The LEDs are tricolour (yellow, red, green) and display seven different status

indications. Tables 10 to 13 show the meaning of these indications.

The following units are equipped with LED indicators:

. Transceivers, WTRs

. System clock units, WSCs

.

Antenna filters, WAFs

. Power amplifiers, WMPs

. Input combiner, WIC

. Summing and multiplexing unit, WSM

. Application manager, WAM

. Signal processor units, WSP

. ATM cross-connect unit, AXU

. Interface unit, IFU

Note

When WCDMA units are powered on, the LEDs should always be lit. If an LED

is not lit, either the unit or the LED is faulty or there is no power to the unit 

Note

If one of the WSC units in a cabinet is on standby, its upper LED will not be lit.

This is an exception to the general LED interpretation and does not indicate that 

the unit is faulty.

5.3 Replacing Transmission units

This section describes how to replace a faulty Transmission unit with the same

type of Transmission unit (for example, FC E1/T1 with FC E1/T1).

Caution

If replacing the FXC RRI, power off Flexbus interface with transmission unit 

Manager Software.

Caution

If disconnecting the Flexbus cable, power off Flexbus interface with transmission

unit Manager Software.

Note

Before you disconnect a transmission card, notify the network operator.

Disconnecting transmission units can drop all traffic from Nokia UltraSite EDGE

BTS and affect other Nokia UltraSite EDGE BTSs chained or connected to the

same transmission trunk line.

Note

When replacing the FXC E1 or FC E1/T1, you can ground the outer conductor of
