Introduction to Installation and Commissioning Flow ............... 7
Equipment Installation
Modes
As per the ZXWM M920 subrack installation position in cabinet,
there are two installation modes: subrack rear-flange installation
mode and subrack front-flange installation mode.
To satisfy requirements for installation in different cabinets, ZXWM
M920 equipment can be equipped with various mounting flanges
which can be installed in the front part or at the rear part of the
left side or right side of cabinet.
Subrack rear-flange installation
It applies to installing subrack in ZTE transmission equipment
cabinet which complies with ETS standard. In this mode,
mounting flanges are installed at the rear part of subrack
sides. Use captive fasteners to fix mounting flanges to mount-
ing holes which locate on the rear column of cabinet. The
subrack rear-flange installation mode facilitates cabling and
fiber coiling at the side of cabinet.
Subrack front-flange installation
It applies to installing subrack in other cabinet that complies
with ETS standard. It differs from subrack rear-flange installa-
tion in that the mounting flanges are installed at the front part
of subrack sides. In this mode, use screws to fix mounting
flanges to mounting holes which locate on the front column of
cabinet.

Note:
ZTE transmission equipment cabinet is delivered to user with-
out special claim. Rear flanges are equipped and subrack rear-
flange installation mode should be employed.
If user needs to install subrack in other cabinet complying
with ETS standard, ZTE can deliver front flanges which sup-
port other cabinet complying with ETS standard.
No matter using subrack front-flange installation or subrack
rear-flange installation, operation and maintenance of equip-
ment are performed facing the cabinet front, and subracks are
installed at the same locations in cabinet. The only difference
is that the mounting flanges are installed at different locations.

ZXWM M920 should satisfy the following lightning protection re-

quirements:
For central equipment room:
AC cables should be buried under ground.
Since AC power distribution screen and DC power supply
cabinet might stay in the same equipment room, the dis-
tance between class B arrester and class C arrester should
satisfy the required distance of decoupling. If protection
grounding is laid alone, the distance between class B ar-
rester and class C arrester should be no less than 5 m.

If protection grounding is laid parallel with power cord,

the distance between class B arrester and class C arrester
should be no less than 15 m.
If the distance between class B arrester and class C arrester
cannot satisfy the above requirement, it is necessary to
add a decoupling inductance in front of class C arrester
(calculated as 1.5 H/m).
Grounding cable of class B arrester and that of class C ar-
rester should be joined by stranded copper cable, and MET
(Major Earth Terminal) or FEB (Floor Equipotential earth
terminal Board), whose cross-sectional area is no less than
95 mm2. And the grounding cable should be as short as
possible.

FIGURE 11 FLOWCHART OF HARDWARE INSTALLATION
The following content briefly describes the main steps of hardware

installation:
1. Cabinet installation
For the convenience of project construction, it is recommended
to dismount the front door and back door of cabinet before
cabinet installation, and mount them after the construction.
Determine installation position of cabinet, installation require-
ments, and installation methods before cabinet installation.
2. Equipment assembly
Generally, the internal parts, boards and cables of ZXWM M920
have been installed and connected before delivery. However,
some parts of the equipment may get loose due to vibration
during transportation. Therefore, fasten the screws and rein-
sert any plug-in if required. Equipment assembly includes the
installation of subracks, fan unit, power distribution box, dust-
proof unit, DCM plug-in box, antistatic wrist straps, and boards.
3. Label making
All connections of cables, fiber pigtails, and distribution
frames should be properly marked with labels. It will help
during equipment debugging and maintenance. Label making
includes the preparation and sticking of various labels.
4. Internal cable inspection
Internal cable is a cable with both ends connected inside the
equipment cabinet. Internal cables are usually installed be-
fore delivery. During hardware installation, it is necessary to
inspect the internal cables including the subrack power cable,
subrack protection ground cable, ring trip cable, fan cable, fan

internal cable, fan component conductor, LED connection ca-

ble, and expansion subrack communication cable.
5. Power/ground cable layout
Power cables and ground cables should be laid out at locale.
Power/ground cable layout refers to making and connecting
connectors of power cables and ground cables.
6. External cable layout
External cables refer to the cables connecting ZXWM M920 with
peripheral equipment. External cables should be laid out at lo-
cale. External cable layout includes the installation of external
power cables, external ground cables, network cables, fiber
pigtails, and alarm input/output cables.
7. EMS computer installation
EMS computers are used to monitor the entire network. A
transmission network may consist of multiple offices/stations.
It is not necessary for every office/station to have an EMS com-
puter. Instead, EMS computers are installed at important of-
fices/stations from where network needs to be monitored. Nor-
mally, only one EMS computer is installed for one transmission
network.
8. Hardware installation inspection

END OF STEPS

Operation Precautions
Since there are many CMOS components in the board, make
sure to wear an antistatic wrist strap to connect human body
with the equipment protection ground. If the equipment is
not connected with the protection ground, the antistatic wrist
strap will not take effect, and other antistatic measure should
be taken.
Generally, there is a bag of desiccant in the antistatic bag of the
board, which can absorb the moisture and keep the inside of
the antistatic bag dry. When a board is carried from a dry place
with low temperature to a moist place with high temperature,
wait for at least half an hour before unpacking and installing the
board. Otherwise, moisture will condense the board surface,
resulting in board damage.
While plugging/unplugging a board, keep it upright and use
appropriate force to avoid bending the contact pins. While
plugging/unplugging a board with optical interfaces, handle it
carefully to avoid damaging the fiber connectors or coiled fiber
pigtails in the board.
Avoid plugging/unplugging a board when it is powered.

RPU Board Installation

Two installation modes can be used to connect RPU board depend-
ing on the configuration of a DWDM system.
The first installation mode applies to the RPU board of which
optical input interface is connected with fiber optic adapter.
The second installation mode applies to the RPU board of which
optical input interface is connected with bare fiber. In this
mode, splice the bare fiber at the optical input interface of RPU
board with external optical fiber. And use optical fibers to con-
nect the other optical interfaces of RPU board with fiber optic
adapters.
Note:
In the first installation mode, the reflectance of optical input inter-
face end face is higher than that in the second installation mode.
Hence, we suggest using the second mode to connect the optical
input interface of RPU board.
The following describes the installation procedures of RPU board

in these two modes.
Installing RPU Board with E2000/APC

Connector
Context If the optical input interface of the RPU board is to be connected
with E2000/APC connector which is a kind of optic adapter, follow
the steps below to install and connect the RPU board.

Steps 1. Take out the RPU board from the antistatic bag and check if
there is any mechanical damage. Be sure to take proper and
reliable antistatic measure, e.g. wearing antistatic wrist strap,
before touching the board.
2. According to the slot layout and available slots of RPU board
specified in the design document, insert the RPU board into
corresponding slot as follows.
i. Place the spanners on the RPU board front panel at hori-
zontal position by pressing their spring plates.
ii. Hold the upper and lower spanners, and push in the board
exactly along the guide rail of the slot. Be cautious to kept
the board vertical throughout the pushing process, and ap-
ply appropriate force.
iii. When the board is about to get into position, clamp the
bayonets of spanners with front beam of the subrack, ap-
ply proper force to push the spanners upwards/downwards
with both hands until the spanners stand upright and pro-
duce the locking sound of "clatter". Then the insertion of
board completes.
iv. Check and make sure that the board front panel is at the
same level with outer frame of the subrack board area.
3. Use a fiber pigtail to connect the optical input interface of RPU
board with the E2000/APC optical fiber connector.
Figure 58 shows an E2000/APC optical fiber connector.
FIGURE 58 E2000/APC OPTICAL FIBER CONNECTOR
Caution:
The optical input interface of RPU board (IN interface) also acts
as the pumped light output interface. Its input optical power
is over 27 dBm. Therefore, be sure to strictly follow the proce-
dures described below to connect it with E2000/APC connector.
i. At the client side of EMS, select the ZXWM M920 NE, and
click Maintenance > Power Management > Laser Sta-
tus Configuration to shut down the laser of RPU board.

Chapter 7 RPOA Subsystem Installation
ii. Clean the end face of FC/UPC optical fiber connector on the
E2000 fiber pigtail. After cleaning, use an optical micro-
scope to check whether the end face is clean without any
scratch or speck.
Note:
One end of E2000 fiber pigtail is E2000/APC connector,
while the other end is FC/UPC connector. E2000/APC is
connected to the IN interface of RPU board, while FC/UPC
is connected to ODF.
iii. Test the fiber line with an OTDR. Before testing, connect
the test interface of the OTDR and the line fiber with an
extra segment of fiber 5 km long. Note that the same type
of fiber as the line fiber must be used to ensure the test
accuracy.
The fiber line should meet the following requirements:
No optical fiber connector is used when the line distance
is within the range of 0 km to 20 km.
For fiber line within the range of 0 km to 10 km, the
insertion loss should be less than 0.1 dB (for G.652
fiber) or 0.2 dB (for G.655 fiber).
For fiber line within the range of 10 km to 20 km, the
insertion loss should be less than 0.2 dB (for G.652
fiber) or 0.4 dB (for G.655 fiber).
iv. If the fiber line is qualified, remove the 5 km long fiber.
v. Connect the E2000/APC optical fiber connector to the opti-
cal input interface of RPU board.
4. Connect the other optical interfaces of RPU board.
END OF STEPS
Installing RPU Board with Bare Fiber

Context If the optical input interface of RPU board is bare fiber, follow the
steps below to install the RPU board.
Steps 1. Take out the RPU board from the antistatic bag and check if
there is any mechanical damage. Be sure to take proper and
reliable antistatic measure, e.g. wearing antistatic wrist strap,
before touching the board.
2. Test the fiber line with an OTDR. Before testing, connect the
test interface of the OTDR and the line fiber with an extra seg-
ment of fiber 5 km long. Note that the same type of fiber as
the line fiber must be used to ensure the test accuracy.
The fiber line should meet the following requirements:
No optical fiber connector is used when the line distance is
within the range of 0 km to 20 km.

For fiber line within the range of 0 km to 10 km, the inser-

tion loss should be less than 0.1 dB (for G.652 fiber) or 0.2
dB (for G.655 fiber).
For fiber line within the range of 10 km to 20 km, the in-
sertion loss should be less than 0.2 dB (for G.652 fiber) or
0.4 dB (for G.655 fiber).
3. If the fiber line is qualified, remove the 5 km long fiber.
4. Splice the bare fiber of the optical input interface of RPU board
with the line fiber. For the detailed splicing procedures, please
refer to related instructions of the automatic fusion splicer.
5. According to the slot layout and available slots of RPU board
specified in the design document, insert the RPU board into
corresponding slot as follows.
i. Place the spanners on the RPU board front panel at hori-
zontal position by pressing their spring plates.
ii. Hold the upper and lower spanners, and push in the board
exactly along the guide rail of the slot. Be cautious to kept
the board vertical throughout the pushing process, and ap-
ply appropriate force.

RGU Module Installation

This section describes how to install RGU_1 module, which is an
RGU module with GFF (Gain Flattening Filter) and unidirectional
pump for bidirectional transmission in the same fiber.
Connection Relations between RGU

Module and Line Optical Cable
Suppose the optical line uses a bidirectional (direction A and di-
rection B) 48-core optical ribbon cable. Fibers of optical cable in
direction A are identified from A1 to A48, while fibers of optical ca-

ble in direction B are identified from B1 to B48. In this application

case, twelve RGU_1 modules are needed. Each of them provides
four input/output interface pairs. Figure 59 illustrates the connec-
tion relations between RGU_1 modules and line optical cables.
FIGURE 59 CONNECTION BETWEEN RGU_1 MODULE AND BIDIRECTIONAL 48-CORE OPTICAL RIBBON
CABLE
Note:
Generally, RGU module is installed at the position close to the re-
ceive end. Figure 59 only illustrates the RGU_1 modules installed
close to end B, which are used to amplify the line optical signals
from A to B. To amplify the line optical signals from B to A, RGU_1
modules should be installed at the position close to end A. Figure
59 does not show optical connections to amplify the line optical
signals from B to A
Table 24 lists the optical cable connections.

Spliced optical cables and RGU modules are all put in optical cable connector
boxes.
Note:
Figure 59 shows optical cable connections of 24 groups of bidirec-
tional transmission in the same fiber. If less optical cables need
to be connected with RGU modules, just directly splice the optical
cables that do not need to be connected with RGU modules.

Installation Modes for Installing RGU

Module in Optical Cable Connector
Box
For different models of optical cable connector box, the installation
modes for installing RGU module in the connector box are different,
as described below.
For buried optical cable connector box and conduit optical cable
connector box, RGU module is directly attached on the mount-
ing bracket of the connector box.
For aerial optical cable connector box, RGU module is attached
or fixed in the connector box.
An aerial optical cable connector box can accommodate one or
two RGU modules. For one RGU module, attach it in the box.
For two RGU modules, fix them in the box with accompany
fittings.
Connecting RGU Module and Optical

Cable Connector Box
Prerequisites
Note:
Read the instruction book of optical cable connector box before
installation.
Steps 1. Take out the RGU module from its package. Check the module
and make sure that it is intact and all fittings are provided.
2. Unscrew the fastening screw of the optical cable connector box
and then open the box.
3. Read the project configuration specification carefully. Deter-
mine the connection relationship between the line optical ca-
ble and the RGU module according to the configuration speci-
fication, the description in Connection Relations between RGU
Module and Line Optical Cable, and locale situation.
4. Splice fibers according to the connection relationship.
5. Place the RGU module and spliced fiber orderly in the optical
cable connector box.
6. Seal the optical cable connector box.
END OF STEPS

RGU Module Installation Precaution

During the construction, reserve sufficient length of line optical
cable and fiber pigtail of RGU module for convenient splicing.
Generally, the fiber pigtail length of RGU module should be no
less than 3 m, and the part of line optical cable connected in
the connector box should be no less than 3 m.
Take and place RGU module and fiber reel-in box in the optical
cable connector box gently. Prevent fiber pigtail of RGU module
from over bending. The bending radius of fiber pigtail should
be larger than 50 mm.
All connectors in the optical cable connector box should have
identifiers. Place optical fiber connectors and joints of spliced
fibers separately for future distinguishing and looking up.
Follow the principle of first-middle later-side while coiling
fibers, that is, first place heat-shrunk tubes in fixing slots one
by one and then place surplus fibers at both sides. If some
fibers are too long or too short, coil them separately last. In
this way, the layout of fibers is proper with less additional
loss, which allows long-term use of fibers in unfavorable
environment and avoids broken fibers caused by squeezing.
Every time after coiling fibers, test the coiled fibers one by
one and make sure their additional loss meets the specified
requirement. Then test all the fibers together before sealing
the connector box to check whether there is any fiber missing
the test and whether there is any fiber or joint being squeezed.
After sealing the connector box, conduct the final test on all
fibers to check whether any fiber is damaged during the sealing
procedure.
While connecting fibers in field, be sure to seal the optical ca-
ble connector box completely for waterproof and damp-proof
purpose.

to check the internal cables:
1. Verify that cables are correctly connected according to the sec-
tions that describe internal cables.
2. Cables should have labels and the labels should be correct and
clear.
3. Ensure that cable connectors connections are reliable and
in-position. The captive screws should be fastened. Repair or
lay the cable if connector is damaged or loose, or the cable is
scratched.
4. The binding of cables should be tidy and reliable. The cable
layout should be tidy.

Flowchart of Laying External

Cables
External cables refer to the cables connecting ZXWM M920 with
external equipment. External cables include external power ca-
ble, ground cable, network cable, orderwire cable, external alarm
cable, and optical fiber.
The flowchart of laying external cables is shown in Figure 87.

FIGURE 87 FLOWCHART OF LAYING EXTERNAL CABLES
General Requirements for

External Cable Layout
Preparations for External Cable
Layout
Before cabling, check if cable appearance is intact, if factory
delivery records and quality certifications are complete.
Check the cable specification and length according to the re-
quirements of equipment and contract.
Make cable connectors according to the cable connector type.
Generally, the cable connector at ZXWM M920 equipment side
has been made. While the cable connector at user side will be
made at locale after cabling, or before cabling once the cable
length can be exactly determined.
When multiple cables are to be placed at the same time,
prepare the cable labels and attach them firmly. If the label
contents cannot be completely determined, the cables can be
numbered temporarily to prevent confusion.
According to the destination board slot location, design the ca-
bling route inside the equipment. It is also necessary to con-
sider future equipment capacity expansion.

Chapter 10 External Cables Layout and Connection
All cables that need tube protection should be covered by cable

sleeves.
External Cable Layout Steps

Laying External 1. Open the mouse-proof bag at the cable outlet locating at the
Cables in Top right side of cabinet top.
Cabling Mode
2. Lead the external cables at equipment side into cabinet via the
cable outlet.
3. Lay the external cables at equipment side to the interface area
of corresponding ZXWM M920 subrack via the cabling area at
cabinet right side.
4. Lead cables into subrack board interface area via the cable
outlet locating at the middle part of subrack right side.
5. Connect the external cables at equipment side to the corre-
sponding sockets of ZXWM M920 subrack.
6. Bind and fix the cables inside cabinet.
7. Pack tightly the mouse-proof bag at the cable inlet locating at
the right side of cabinet top.
8. Lay cables along the top cable tray to lead cables to user side.
Ensure that cables are not curled or piled. Fix cables with cable
straps as per the requirements described in section Require-
ments for External Cable Binding.
9. Lead cables into user equipment such as ODF and column-
head cabinet. Determine the cable connector type according
to specifications of user side equipment. Cut the cables, make
cable connectors, and connect the cables.
Laying External 1. Open the mouse-proof bag at the cable outlet locating at the
Cables in Bottom right side of cabinet bottom.
Cabling Mode
2. Lead the external cables at equipment side into cabinet via the

8. Lay cables along the beneath of antistatic raised floor to lead
cables to user side. Ensure that cables are not curled or piled.
Fix cables with cable straps as per the requirements described
in section Requirements for External Cable Binding.
9. Lead cables into user equipment such as ODF and column-
head cabinet. Determine the cable connector type according

to specifications of user side equipment. Cut the cables, make

cable connectors, and connect the cables.
External Cable Layout Requirements

Routing direction and layout position of cables should com-
ply with the requirement of construction drawings. The length
of each cable should be decided according to the actual ca-
bling distance. The laid cables should not have broken wires
or joints.
If equipment room employs top cabling mode, the vertical dis-
tance between top cabling trough and cabinet top should be
not less than 200 mm.
In case of cabling, do not drag or squeeze cable. For cables
laid along wall, protect them with protection tubes.
Cables in cable trough should be arranged in order, evenly and
smoothly turned. The cables with an outside diameter of not
more than 12 mm should have a bending radius no less than
60 mm, while the cables with an outer diameter more than 12
mm should have a radius curve rate no less than 10 times the
outside diameter.
Cables should be straight, smooth, and inside the trough with-
out blocking other cables inlets/outlets. At trough outlet or
corner, all cables should be bound well and fixed.
When optical fibers, cables and power cables are laid in the
same cable trough, they should be arranged separately without
overlapping or mixing.
If a cable is too long, coil it at the top/bottom of the cabinet or
in the middle of the cable trough. The coiled cable should not
pile on other cables.
Check if mouse-proof bag is packed tightly after external cables
are laid.
Requirements for External Cable

Binding
1. Select proper cable straps as per the thickness of cable bundle.
2. Cables near connectors should be bound according to the ca-
bling order to prevent them from being twisted together. Ca-
bles should be straight and smooth. The cable straps of hori-
zontal cables should be distributed evenly. The vertical cables
should be vertical to the ground after being bound, as shown
in Figure 88.

FIGURE 88 DIAGRAM OF CABLE STRAPS NEAR CONNECTOR
3. Do not use connected cable straps to bind cables because it

may minimize the binding strength of cable straps. After bind-
ing, trim the remaining ends of the cable straps from the roots.
Do not leave sharp nose, as shown in Figure 89.
FIGURE 89 TRIMMING REQUIREMENTS OF CABLE STRAP
Note:
In the figure, the tick mark indicates correct binding and the
cross mark indicates wrong binding.
4. When cables are bound into bundle, the spaces between cable
straps should be 3~4 times of the cable bundle diameter, as
shown in Figure 90.
FIGURE 90 SPACE BETWEEN CABLE STRAPS OF CABLE BUNDLE

5. For cable bundle with bend, cable straps should be used at both
sides of the bend to avoid breaking cores, as shown in Figure
91.
FIGURE 91 CABLE STRAPS AT THE CORNER OF CABLE BUNDLE
6. Cables in cabinet should be laid in an orderly manner from far

end to the near end. It means that the longest cables are laid
first and are located at the bottom of the cabling area. Avoid
cable overlapping, as shown in Figure 92.
FIGURE 92 LAYING CABLES INSIDE CABINET
7. If there are too many cables near the socket area, the cables
can be bound into several sub-bundles. Keep the sub-bundles
tidy and straight.

Unplugging Fiber Pigtail with LC/PC Connector

Steps 1. If LC/PC fiber pigtail extractor is available, nip the left side and
the right side of LC/PC connector with the clip of LC/PC fiber
pigtail extractor.
2. If no LC/PC fiber pigtail extractor is available, nip the fiber pig-
tail connector with thumb finger and index finger, and press
down the spring plate on the connector with thumb finger.
3. Pull out the connector with proper force.
END OF STEPS
Postrequisite Perform the following operations after unplugging fiber pigtail:

If there is no more operation on fiber pigtail connector, cover
the connector with a dust-proof cap as soon as it is unplugged,
to avoid dust pollution.
If the unplugged fiber pigtail is kept for other purpose, coil it
in the fiber coiling box tidily.
If the unplugged fiber pigtail is not in use any more, take it out
of cabinet once it is unplugged.
Preparations for Fiber Pigtail Layout

Before laying fiber pigtails, perform the following operations:
1. Check the appearance integrity of fiber pigtails, factory record
and quality certification.
2. Check the specification, length and connectors of fiber pigtails
according to the design and contract requirements.
3. To ensure that fiber pigtail connections are consistent with the
equipment networking, draw an optical fiber connection dia-
gram based on the equipment networking. In this diagram,
mark the optical line board slot number and the optical inter-
face number of initiating/terminating NE for each optical con-
nection.
4. Design fiber pigtail layout route according to the positions of
optical interfaces to be connected and possible future capacity
expansion.
5. Prepare fiber pigtail labels.
6. Dismount the small door of cabinet cabling area before laying
fiber pigtails.

7. Fiber pigtails should pass through the protection pipe before

they are laid. Each protection pipe can hold multiple fiber pig-
tails, but no more than eight. Tie fiber pigtails with nylon ad-
hesive hook-and-loop tape before putting them through the
pipe and pay attention to protect fiber pigtail connectors. The
length of the protection pipe should be decided according to
engineering drawings and locale situation.
Laying Fiber Pigtail

Context Generally, fiber pigtails of ZXWM M920 equipment that need to be
laid include internal fiber pigtails and external fiber pigtails.
Internal fiber pigtails: fiber pigtails inside the same cabinet, in-
cluding inter-subrack fiber pigtails and intra-subrack fiber pig-
tails.
External fiber pigtails: fiber pigtails coming into or out of a
cabinet and fiber pigtails between cabinets.
Steps 1. Lay internal fiber pigtail
i. Plug one connector of internal fiber pigtail into the corre-
sponding board optical interface in subrack.
ii. Lay internal fiber pigtail vertically and lead it to the cabling
trough of subrack. Lead it through the cabling hole at the
subrack side.
iii. Lay internal fiber pigtail to corresponding subrack through
cabling areas at the cabinet two sides.
iv. Lead internal fiber pigtail through the cabling hole at sub-
rack side, and lead it to the corresponding board optical
interface.
v. Plug the other connector of internal fiber pigtail into the
corresponding board optical interface.
Caution:
Plug an optical interface stopper into optical interface that
has no fiber pigtail. Cover fiber pigtail that is not connected
to optical interface with a dust-proof cap.
vi. Coil the remaining fiber pigtail in fiber coiling tray at sub-
rack side.
vii. Stick fiber pigtail label.
2. Lay external fiber pigtail
i. Lead fiber pigtail into protection pipe.
ii. Lay fiber pigtail to equipment cable inlet.
For top cabling, lead fiber pigtail with protection pipe
into cabinet via the mouse-proof bag locating at the
cable inlet on equipment top. Lead the protection pipe
10 cm into cabinet.

For bottom cabling, lead fiber pigtail with protection

pipe into cabinet via the mouse-proof bag locating at
the cabling hole at equipment bottom. Lead the pro-
tection pipe 10 cm into cabinet.
iii. Lay fiber pigtail along the cabling areas at the two sides of
cabinet, and lead fiber pigtail to corresponding subrack.
iv. Lead fiber pigtail through the cabling hole at subrack side.
Lead it along the cabling trough to the corresponding board
optical interface.
v. Plug the fiber pigtail connector into optical interface.
Caution:
Plug an optical interface stopper into optical interface that
has no fiber pigtail. Cover fiber pigtail that is not connected
to optical interface with a dust-proof cap.
vi. Comb fiber pigtails. Bind fiber pigtails inside cabinet tidily
with nylon adhesive hook-and-loop tapes.
vii. Pack the mouse-proof bag tightly.
viii.Lead fiber pigtail to ODF via the cable inlet of cabinet. Coil
the remaining fiber pigtails tidily in ODF.
ix. Stick fiber pigtail label.
END OF STEPS
Requirements for Fiber Pigtail Layout

Fiber pigtail has a very delicate structure. Therefore, it should
be held or put gently and carefully during the operation. Don't
drag, press, squeeze forcefully or over bend the fiber, to avoid
breaking or damaging it.
The permissible force bearing capabilities of fiber pigtail are
listed in Table 64. The permissible minimum bending radiuses
of fiber pigtails are listed in Table 65.

Bending Radius 10 20 30
(mm)
During laying fiber pigtails, turn them as little as possible. Bind

fiber pigtails with proper force and avoid binding too tightly.
The bare parts of fiber pigtails in the cabling rack, cable trough,
or shelf top, as well as fiber pigtails at the cable leading-in/out
positions of equipment cabinet and the corner of cabling rack,
should be fixed and protected with soft protection pipes.
Protection pipes should be cut before use. The cut of protec-
tion pipe is sharp and is easy to wear and tear fiber pigtail.
Therefore, wrap the cut of wavelet pipe with adhesive tape, so
as to protect fiber pigtail from being wore and tore.
Routing and reserved length of fiber pigtails at the equipment
side and ODF side should satisfy the requirements of engineer-
ing drawings and installation.
It is suggested to lead fiber pigtail protection pipe to 5 cm
above/below the subrack installation tray of the ZXWM M920
cabinet, so that the protection pipe can be fixed. But the led-in
length should not affect the fiber pigtail cabling at the cabinet
side or in the subrack cabling area.
Remaining fiber pigtails inside cabinet should be coiled in fiber
coiling plate or fiber coiling box. Fiber pigtails should be coiled
without twist.
Determine the laying positions of fiber pigtails as per the di-
agrams given in Connection Diagrams of External Cables and
Connection Diagrams of Internal Cables. Note that fiber pig-
tails laid should not plugging/unplugging boards or fan plug-in
box.
Be careful when connecting fiber pigtails, and pay attention
to dust-proof of optical components. Clean the fiber pigtail
connectors using dust-proof paper dipped with absolute alcohol
before connecting them. Do not clean optical interface with
alcohol.
When fiber pigtail is connected to optical interface board with
multiple optical interfaces, the connection should be made from
top to bottom and from left to right, to make the operation
easier.
When fiber pigtails, cable, power cable and ground cable are
laid in the same trough, fiber pigtails with protection pipe
should not overlap or mix with other cables. If there are
too many cables and fiber pigtails, they should not overlap.
Always place fiber pigtails above other cables. Forbid placing
other cables above fiber pigtails.
Direction and route of fiber pigtails should meet the regulations
in engineering drawing design files.

EMS computer is installed with EMS system for Unitrans
ZXMP/ZXWM products. The network interface at computer side
is the RJ45 interface on computer network card. The network
interface at ZXWM M920 equipment side is the Ethernet electrical
interface on SEIA board.
EMS computer can be connected with ZXWM M920 equipment in
two modes:
LAN connection mode
LAN connection mode serves for the management of local sub-
nets.
WAN (Wide Area Network) connection mode
This mode can support remote network management of re-
mote (non-local) subnets by transmitting EMS information via
DCN. DCN can be a DDN data network, PSTN network, or 2 M
channels provided by SDH or PDH equipment.
LAN Connection Mode

This connection mode serves for the management of local subnets.
There are two modes for LAN connection mode: direct connection
mode and LAN mode.

Direct Connection In direct connection mode, the EMS system is connected with the
Mode equipment through a network cable to implement the manage-
ment of local subnets. In this mode, the EMS system can only be
connected with one gateway NE, as shown in Figure 101.

Context After the cabinet is powered on normally, check if the fan plug-in
box works normally. Meanwhile check if the internal power supply
is connected normally in the equipment.
Steps 1. Turned on the air switch of ZXWM M920 power distribution box.
2. Observe the running status of fan.
If the fan is runs normally, it should buzz lightly and con-
tinuously. If there is anything abnormal, power it off and
check it.
If the fan doesn't run, check if the fan cables have been
correctly connected.
END OF STEPS
Checking Board Status

Prerequisites Make sure that the power distribution unit and fan units of the
equipment are working normally before powering on the boards.

Steps 1. Plug the boards into the specified slots one by one after wear-
ing an antistatic wrist strap and then observe the status of
indicators on the front panel of each board.
i. The red indicator and green indicator flash simultaneously
upon a board is powered on, which indicates that the board
has been normally powered on and is waiting for configu-
ration.
ii. After configuration, the green indicator flashes while the
red indicator glows continuously. However, the board may
report some alarm(s), which may be caused by the lack of
optical input signal. Check the equipment further to handle
the alarm(s).
iii. Generally, each board has been configured with corre-
sponding application program before delivery if there is
no special requirement. When a board has no application
program, the red indicator and green indicator on its front
panel will flash quickly at the same time after being pow-
ered on. In such case, download corresponding application
program online.
2. Power off the board immediately and handle the fault if the
status of a board's indicators is found abnormal. The following
gives the instructions to locate the fault.
i. If the board does not perform the self-test, check whether
there is any chip having been inserted reversely, and
whether the model of chips, the content and version of
program burnt in the chips are correct.
ii. Check whether there is any broken pin on the board or
backplane.
The following gives the detailed description of indicator status
of each board in ZXWM M920.
SNP board
The status of SNP board's indicators represents the running
status of the NE where the SNP board is installed. Five
indicators are available on SNP board: NOM (green), ALM
(red), L/D (green), M/S (green) and W/P (bi-color). Table
68 lists the status of these indicators and corresponding
working status of SNP board.

Cabinet Packing
Note:
Generally, before ZXWM M920 cabinet is transported, all its
components have been installed (including subracks, main board,
boards, fan plug-in box, dust-proof unit, power distribution box,
and alarm indicator board).
There are sponge pads between ZXWM M920 cabinet subrack and
the front/back door plate. Outside the cabinet, 3 m rubber paper
is wrapped around the front/back door plates to fix them tightly.
Cabinet is packed with vacuum bags, its edges are protected with
cushions and fixed with sealing gum paper. Then the cabinet is
put into a wooden packing case.
The wooden packing case of ZXWM M920 is shown in Figure 107.

All the board paper packing boxes should be put in the board car-
tons. The foam plates should be stuffed in between the spaces in
the carton so that the paper boxes in the carton will not sway.
Accessories Packing
Cables, orderwire telephones, specification book and other acces-
sories should be sealed in plastic bags with desiccant, and then
packed in corrugated carton. Foam plates are stuffed for buffer
packaging.

Transportation Precautions
1. Transport the products after they are properly packed. Cover
the packages with canvas to protect them against dampness,
rain, snow, and liquid during transportation.
2. The products should be stacked in order. Stockpiles should be
compact, safe and sound so that they will not sway or slide
during transportation, which may damage the products. Do
not place the products upside down.
3. In long distance transportation, products must not be loaded
in open vessels or vehicles. During transshipment, do not put
the products in open warehouse. Do not transport products
together with flammable, explosive or corrosive materials.
4. Handle the products gently with care, and prevent any toppling
or upside-down placement. Keep the product parts away from
mechanical damage.
5. Reduce transshipments as much as possible. Transport and
load/unload products using machines, and with great care.

Storage Precautions
1. Storage is valid for six months since the packing date. During
this period, the warehouse should be properly ventilated.
2. All packages have damp-proof requirements, i.e. packages
should be placed on racks that are at least 30 cm above the
ground and 40 cm from the wall.
3. Packages should be stacked according to the diagram instruc-
tions on the package. Stack layers should not exceed the spec-
ified limit.
4. Packed products should be put into use as soon as possible af-
ter acceptance, preferably within six months. Unpack product
packages within three months after arrival.
5. In some special cases, the supply party and demand party can
negotiate on specific requirements for transportation and stor-
age.

fier
ZXWM M920 must meet the following lightning protection require-

ments:
In central equipment room:
AC power cables should be led into the cable vault or power
room underground.
Since the AC power distribution board/unit and the DC
power cabinet are in the same equipment room, the
distance between Class B and Class C lightning protec-
tion units should meet the following decoupling distance
requirements:
When the protection grounding bar is laid independently,
the distance between Class B and Class C lightning protec-
tion units should be no less than 5 m.
When the protection grounding bar and the power cords
are laid in parallel, the distance between Class B and Class
C lightning protection units should be no less than 15 m.
If the required decoupling distance can not be satisfied due
to some restrictions in the equipment room, additional de-
coupling inductance(s) should be installed before the Class
C lightning protection unit by 1.5H/m.
Bunched copper wires with cross section area no less than
95 mm2 which are joined by MET (Main Earthing Terminal)
or FEB (Floor Equipotential Earthing Terminal Board) should
be used as the grounding cables of the Class B lightning
protection unit (AC power distribution board/unit), and the
protection grounding cables and working grounding cables
of the Class C lightning protection unit (DC power cabinet),
which are connected to the protection grounding bar in the
equipment room. Keep the length of grounding cables as
short as possible.
The lightning requirements of ZXWM M920 ports (such as E1,
network interface and alarm ) are listed in Table 98.

Fulfill the following requirements when plugging/unplugging or
storing optical fibers:
Prohibit touching optical fiber connector or adapter optical in-
terface with bare hand.
Do not look straight at optical fiber connector or adapter when
plugging/unplugging optical fiber. Wear a pair of protection
glasses if available.
Check optical power of optical fiber before connecting. If its
optical power is greater than optical fiber adapter's overload
optical power, add proper attenuator before the optical receive
interface, and then connect the optical fiber.
Unplug optical fibers from an optical board before plugging the
board.
Cover optical fiber connector with dust-proof cap when the op-
tical fiber is not in use.
When a board with optical fiber adapter is not in use, cover the
optical fiber adapter with dust-proof cap, and then store the
board properly.
Cleaning Requirement of
Optical Fiber Connector
Optical transmission system uses lots of optical fiber connectors
which are easily get stained during maintenance. Even tiny dust
grain observed in microscope may affect optical signal quality, re-
duces system performance, and becomes hidden trouble of reliable
network running. Therefore, it is necessary to clean optical fiber
connectors. The requirements for cleaning optical fiber connectors
are:
Use optical fiber microscope to observe optical fiber connector
surface. There should be no contamination.

DRA Activation Procedures

Before activating DRA board, perform the following steps:
1. Inspect optical lines
2. Inspect end surface of fiber pigtails
3. Debug DRA board
Note:
The inspection and debugging mentioned above are necessary be-
fore adjusting optical fibers, cutting over traffic, or replacing DRA
board.
Inspecting Optical Lines

Steps 1. Use an OTDR to check all optical lines within 50 km from the
IN interface of DRA board . Make sure that the reflectance at
the ends of all fiber pigtails is less than -30 dB.
2. Clean end surface of optical fiber connector which does not
meet the requirement, and then check it again until it satisfies
the requirement.
END OF STEPS

Inspecting Fiber Pigtail End

Surface
Steps 1. Clean end surface of all fiber pigtails between the IN interface
of DRA board, ODF, and optical lines. Inspect the end surfaces
using an optical microscope and reflectometer. Make sure that
the end surfaces of all fiber pigtails are fine with the reflectance
less than -30 dB.
2. Replace fiber pigtails that have unsatisfactory end surfaces.
3. Check the reflectance of the IN interface of DRA board with a
reflectometer, and make sure it is less than -30 dB. Clean the
fiber pigtail connector if it is unsatisfactory. After that, if it is
still unsatisfactory, ask ZTE maintenance engineer to replace
the DRA board.
END OF STEPS
Debugging DRA Board

Context
Note:
The debugging of DRA board is complicated. The gain of DRA
board should be set and calibrated with a spectrometer. ZTE main-
tenance personnel are responsible for the debugging operations.
This topic briefs the debugging procedures of DRA board.
Steps 1. Connect fiber pigtails to all the optical fiber connectors of the
DRA board.
2. Power on the DRA board. The DRA board automatically turns
off the pumps when there is no optical input.
3. Access optical signals. The DRA board automatically turns on
the pumps according to the preset gain and pump parameters.
Check whether there is any over-threshold alarm of reflectance
or reflection power in the EMS system. Check whether the
reflectance is less than -30 dB.
4. If the reflectance is more than -30 dB, check end surfaces of
fiber pigtails. Check or replace the DRA board if the end sur-
faces are fine. If the reflectance is less than -30 dB, proceed
to next step.
5. Perform the RAMAN test. Test the gain of optical switch and
gain flatness via the EMS system and spectrometer. Perform
the following steps to adjust the pump configuration of DRA
board based on the RAMAN test results:
i. Set the gain of the DRA board to 10 dB. Measure the gain
and gain flatness using a spectrometer. Adjust the pump

Appendix E DRA Board Operations
power of the DRA board through the EMS system until the
gain reaches 6 dB and the optimal gain flatness is achieved.
ii. Set the gain of the DRA board to 6 dB - 12 dB. Repeat the
previous step. Adjust the pump power at different gains
through the EMS system and spectrometer.
Note:
The amplification performance of the DRA board is closely re-
lated to the optical fibers. For G.652 optical fibers, the DRA
board can achieve a minimum switch gain of 10 dB.
6. Check whether there is any DRA-related alarm through the

EMS system. The DRA debugging completes if there is no
alarm.
