Some equipment parts contain hydrochloride. The burning of these parts generates
toxic gas.
Prevent such parts from burning.
Do not discard the parts at random. Follow local regulations to perform chemical
treatment or special waste treatment on them.
3
2.3 Hydrofluoride
Warning:
Some equipment parts contain hydrofluoride. The burning of these parts generates
toxic gas.
Prevent such parts from burning.
Do not discard the parts at random. Follow local regulations to perform chemical
treatment or special waste treatment on them.
3 Electrical Safety
3.1 High Voltage
Danger:
High voltage power supply provides electricity for equipment operation. Direct contact
or indirect contact thru damp objects with high-voltage wires or mains supply may be
fatal.
z Follow local safety regulations to install AC power supply equipment. The people
engaged in AC power supply must be qualified for high-voltage and AC
operations.
z Remove electrical conductors such as watch, bracelets, and rings before
operation.
z When detecting that the cabinet is wet, switch off power supply at once.
z Keep the equipment dry in humid places.
Warning:
Improper high-voltage operations may result in fire and electric shocks. Follow local
codes to lay AC cables. Have high-voltage operators trained and qualified.
4
3.2 Power Cable
Caution:
Never install or remove electrified power cables. Electric spark or arc may result from
contact of power cable with conductors, causing fires or eye injury.
z Be sure to turn off power before installing and removing power cables.
z Before connecting cables, make sure that the cables and cable tags are correct.
3.3 Fuse
Caution:
Never install or remove electrified fuses.
z Only technicians qualified for high-voltage operations can install or remove

fuses.
z Be sure to switch off power before replacing AC fuses.
3.4 Tools
Warning:
High-voltage and AC operations call for special tools instead of general-purpose or

makeshift tools.
3.5 Drilling Holes
Warning:
Do not drill on the cabinet at will. Improper drilling may damage cables inside the
cabinet. The metal filings resulting from the drilling may fall into the cabinet and
short-circuit the circuit board.
z Wear insulated gloves and move away the cables inside the cabinet.
5
z Protect your eyes from flying metal filings.

z Prevent metal filings from falling into the cabinet.
z Drill at proper places to avoid affecting the electromagnetic shielding
performance of the cabinet.
z After drilling, remove all the metal filings at once.
3.6 Thunderstorm
Danger:
Never work on high-voltage and AC or work on steel towers and masts in

thunderstorms.
Thunderstorms generate powerful electromagnetic fields in air. Ground the equipment

properly to avoid thunder stroke.
3.7 Static Electricity
Caution:
Static electricity generated on human body may damage the electrostatic-sensitive

parts on the circuit board, such as large-scale integrated circuit (IC).
z In dry climate, the electrostatic charge carried by the human body may be up to
30 kV. The charge may remain on the human body for rather a long period.
When an operator with electrostatic charge contacts a part, the electric discharge
may damage the part.
z Before contacting any equipment, hand-held plug-in boards, circuit boards or IC
chips, put on an anti-static wrist strap with one end well grounded to protect
sensitive parts from static electricity on your body.
z Before touching any board or module, discharge the static electricity in your body
by wearing an anti-static wrist strap.
z Add a resistance over 1M between the strap and the grounding point to protect
yourself from electric shock. The resistance over 1M is reliable in terms of
electrostatic voltage discharging. Check the anti-static wrist strap regularly.
Never replace the cable of the anti-static wrist strap with other cables.
z Prevent electrostatic-sensitive boards or modules from touching the object with
static electricity or the object that may easily generate static electricity. For
6
example, when rubbing on an object of insulating materials such as packing and

conveyer, an electrostatic-sensitive part takes electric charge. When touching a
human body or connect to the ground, the discharge may damage the part.
z Electrostatic-sensitive boards or modules can only contact good conductors,
such as anti-static packing bags. Pack the board with an anti-static bag for stock
or transport.
z Before connecting any measurement device to boards or modules, ground it to
discharge its static electricity.
z Do not place boards or modules near strong DC magnetic field, for example, the
cathode ray tube of a scope. Keep the distance at 10 cm at least.
z The damage caused by static electricity is accumulative in effect. If the damage
is slight, the part does not fail. However, as the damage occurs repeatedly, the
part may suddenly fail. The electrostatic discharging damage on the part may be
explicit or implicit. The implicit damage is not visible. However, it makes the part
vulnerable to over-voltage and high-temperature.
Figure 1 shows how to wear an anti-static wrist strap.
Plug of anti-static wrist strap
Figure 1 Wearing an anti-static wrist strap
3.8 Labels on Power Supply Cables
Attention:
Before connecting the cables, check the labels on them.
7
3.9 Leakage Current
Warning:
To avoid large leakage current, ground the equipment before powering it on.
Before connecting the AC input power supply, be sure to connect the

protection-grounding terminal of the equipment housing with the earth. The purpose is
to avoid the electric shock on human body resulting from leakage current. The
leakage current is caused by the EMI filter earth capacitance of the equipment AC
power supply input terminal and the Y capacitance of the primary power supply.
3.10 Flammable Air
Danger:
Do not place the equipment in an environment with flammable, explosive air or smog.
Never operate any digital equipment in this environment.
It is extremely dangerous to operate any digital equipment in this environment.

radiation.
z Uncontrolled environment
In such an area, people are not aware of the potential danger of the radio frequency
radiation. They are not able to evade the radiation. The area may include living or
working places.
4.3 Minimal Distance Formula
This section shows how to calculate the minimal safety distance.
Use the following formula to calculate the minimal safety distance from various
antennas.
G-L
N10 10 P OUT
rmin = 4 W
The elements in the formula include:

z Rmin is the minimal safety distance. Its unit is meter.
z N is the number of frequency carriers.
z Pout is the output power of the frequency carrier. Its unit is W.
z L is the loss from transmitting party to the receiving party. Its unit is dB.
z G is the antenna gain. Its unit is dB.
z W is the greatest field power density permitted. Its unit is W/m2.
In the uncontrolled environment, the greatest field power density permitted is f/150, in
which f is the frequency, whose unit is MHz. Its tested value is the mean value
measured when the testing time is over 30 minutes.
In the controlled environment, the greatest filed power density permitted is f/30, and
its tested value is the mean value measured when the testing time is over 6 minutes.
Table 2 shows the minimal safety distance on the axial line of the antenna field
calculated by the above formula.

specific data configurations.
z If the trunk cable from BBU3806 is coaxial at 75 ohm and the cable from the peer
end of BBU3806 is a 120-ohm twisted pair one, you must connect the two types
of cables through an adapter or a transit cable.
6.5.3 Wiring Principles for E1/T1 Cable
Route the E1/T1 cable by following the principles below:

z Do not rout the E1/T1 cable overhead outside the equipment room.
z If the E1/T1 cable has to go outside the equipment room, route them
underground through a metal pipe. Ground both ends of the pipe securely.
z If the E1/T1 cable has to go outside the equipment room and fails to be routed
underground, you shall:
z Shield the cable through a metal tube. Ground both ends of the tube
securely. For the section of the cable led into the equipment room, connect it to
the protection grounding bar for sound grounding.
z Choose the cable with an outer metal layer. Ground both ends of the metal
layer securely. For the section of the cable led into the equipment room, connect
it to the protection grounding bar for sound grounding.
z Ground the idle wire pairs of the E1/T1 cable inside the equipment room. For
example, you may connect the idle core wires and shielding layer of the E1/T1
cable to a small metal plate, lead a grounding cable from the plate, and then
connects it to the protection grounding bar inside the equipment room.
z Do not cross the E1/T1 cable with the power cable, grounding cable, and feeder.
z When routing the E1/T1 cable in parallel with the above three types of cable,
keep it at least 30 mm away from any of the cables.
z Route the cable nicely and neatly, and secure it with cable ties.
z Make sure the radius of any bent is 20 times larger than the diameter of the
cable.

A.3.3 Stripping
Caution:
When stripping a cable, check whether the core wires have been seriously oxidized
or corroded. If so, cut off all damaged segment.
You may use special stripping tools, electrical knives, or the AM35 wire stripper if it is
available.
For the JG OT terminal, the relation between the stripped length and the crimping
length should comply with the formula:
L1 = L2 + (2 mm to 3 mm), where:
z L1 is the stripped length.
z L2 is the effective crimping length of the JG terminal, as shown in Figure A-3.

C.2.4 Printing Labels
You can print or write labels. Printing is advisable for high efficiency and eye-pleasant
layout.
I. Template for Printing
The Word-form template is available for label printout:

z Download the template from http://tech-support.huawei.com/asp/comm/index.asp
(path: //support/technical document/project management/installation and
maintenance/document/others).
z Get the template from Huawei local office.
When using the template, you can directly modify the contents on the template. Be sure
to observe the following rules:
z Do not change the settings of centered characters, direction, and fonts.
z When there are too many characters to fill in, zoom out the characters, but make
sure that the printouts are clear and legible.
II. Cells Merging on the Template
The procedure is as follows:

1) Recover the table structure (if gridlines are displayed, you can start from Step 3)
directly).
2) Click [Edit/Select All].
3) Click [Format/Borders and Shading/Borders]. Select Box and click <OK>.
C-3
4) Select the cells to merge and click [Table/Merge Cells].

If two merged cells are still not large enough, use multiple lines.
III. Requirements for Printer
Use a laser printer to print labels.
Before printing a label, set up the page and try the printing on ordinary blank paper
(both sides are blank):
1) Cover the blank paper onto the whole page of label paper. Check that the page
setup conforms to the requirement.
2) Make sure the printer properties, such as "paper size" and direction, have been
set correctly.
3) If the warning prompt as shown in Figure C-3 appears before printing, click
<Ignore> to continue the printing.
Figure C-3 Warning prompt before printing
If the printout conforms to the requirement, print it to label paper. If not, adjust the page
setup and try the printing again until the printout is satisfactory.
Adjust the page setup as follows:

1) Click [File/Page Setup].
2) Select the [Margins] tab page.
3) Select Left for [Gutter Position].
4) Set [Header] and [Footer] as 0. Adjust the values of [Top], [Bottom], [Left], and
[Right].
When the page setup is correct, save it for future use. The page setup is only necessary
for the first time you use the template to print the labels.
IV. Requirements for Feeding Printer
No matter what model of printer you are using, feed in paper pieces one after another
by hand. Never use the auto-feed mode to avoid jamming the labels. The reason is that
the label paper is different from the ordinary paper. It is composed of two pages and
processed through many stages.
C-4
Different models of printers entail different feeding modes. Be sure to feed in the paper
pieces correctly.
V. Requirements for Printed Labels
Make sure that the printed labels satisfy the following requirements:
z All the printout is on the label. Nothing should be printed on the bottom page of the
label.
z Contents in the cells are aligned in the center. In a single-line printout, the dividing
lines and the mark TO: are not covered by the printed characters.
z Avoid overwriting the mark TO: with contents in merged cells or multiple-line
printing. Use the space bar to move the contents to the next line.
C.2.5 Writing Labels
Use the black oiliness markers delivered together with the device to write the labels.
If have to, you may use black ball-pens instead. In that case, take care not to leave the
oil on the label. Note that the oil contaminates the label and blurs the words.
Note:
The delivered marker has two nebs. Be sure to use the smaller neb to write the labels.
For easy recognition and good looking, write close to the standard typeface. Table C-1
shows the standard typeface.

C.2.6 Affixing Labels
After printing or writing the label, remove the labels from the bottom page. Affix them to
signal cables or the ID plates of the power cables.
I. Affixing Label to Signal Cable
1) Decide where to affix the label.

Affix the label 20 mm from the connector on the signal cable. To avoid bending the
cable or affecting other cables, you may affix the label at other positions.
For the vertical cable, affix the label with the text area to the right. For the horizontal
cable, affix the label with the text area downward. Figure C-5 shows how to affix a label
to a vertical signal cable. The method is similar for affixing a label to a horizontal cable
except the cable is 90 clockwise.
Figure C-5 Affixing a label to a signal cable
2) Fold the narrow part of the label to the right, as shown in Figure C-5-a.
C-6
The length of the narrow part is designed for an external cable diameter of 2.6 mm.
After this part has been stuck to the back of the label, it may not overlap the entire
printed part.
3) Fold the printed part along the dotted line according to the directions shown in
Figure C-5-b.
Figure C-5-c shows the finished label.
II. Affixing Label to Power Cable
Remove the label from the bottom page. Affix it to the rectangular flute on the ID plate
on the cable tie. Be sure to affix the labels on the same side of the ID plates. Bind the
cables with cable ties 20 mm from the connectors. You can change the position to suite
actual needs.
Bind the cables with cable ties at both ends. After the bundling, the finished ID plate
should be on top of the cable in horizontal cabling, or on the right side of the cable in
vertical cabling. Make sure that the label is facing out, as shown in Figure C-6.

C.2.7 Information Carried on Labels
I. For Power Cables
Affix labels for power cables on one side of the ID plates. On the labels, there is
information (the part after the mark TO:) about the location of the device at the other
end of the cable, such as the location of the control cabinet, distribution box or power
socket.
C-7
II. For Signal Cables
The two sides of the label affixed on the signal cable carry information about the
location of the ports connected to both ends of the cable, as shown in Figure C-7.
The information is given like this:

z Area 1 contains the location information of this end of the cable.
z Area 2 (with the mark "TO:") contains the location information of the other end of
the cable.
z Area 3 has been folded up inside the label.
Area 1 Area 3
Area 2 TO:
Figure C-7 Printed parts on the label for signal cables
Seen from the cabling end of the equipment, the text part of the label is on the right side
of the cable. The side with TO: that is facing outside carries the location information of
the opposite end. The other side carries the location information of the local end.
Therefore, the information in Area 1 at one end is the same as the information in Area 2
at the other end of the cable. In other words, the local information at one end is the
opposite information at the other end.
C.2.8 Points for Attention
z When printing/writing and affixing labels, keep the labels clean.

z Because the label paper is made of moisture-proof and waterproof material, do not
use ink-jet printers or ink pens to print or write labels.
z Affix labels neatly.
z Cable ties bundle power cables in the same position, with ID plates on the same
side.
z The positions of up, down, right or left are all based on the viewpoint of the
one working on the label.
C.3 Engineering Labels for Optical Fibers
These labels apply to the optical fibers that connect the optical interfaces on the boards
in a subrack or a box.
C-8
There are two types of labels for optical fibers: One is for the fiber that connects the
optical interfaces on two devices. The other is for the fiber that connects the device and
the Optical Distribution Frame (ODF).
C.3.1 Labels for the Fiber that Connects Two Devices
I. Meaning of the Label
Table C-2 shows the information on both sides of the labels affixed to the optical fiber
that connects two devices.
Table C-2 Information on labels affixed to the fiber between two devices
Content Meaning Example

C.5 Engineering Labels for Power Cables
C.5.1 Labels for DC Power Cables
The labels apply to the DC cables that provide power for the cabinets, and the
protection grounding cables, including the -48V, PGND, and BGND cables. The labels
for DC power cables are on one side of the ID plates on cable ties.
Table C-6 shows the information carried on the labels for the DC power cables:
Table C-6 Information on labels affixed to the DC power cables
Content Meaning
MN(BC)--48V1 MN (BC): BC is right under MN.
MN(BC)--48V2 On the load cabinet side, MN alone can identify the cabinet.
MN(BC)-BGND On the power cabinet side, MN identifies the row and

column number of the power distribution equipment such as
MN(BC)-PGND the control cabinet and distribution box. BC identifies the row
and column number of the -48V connector (if there is no row
number or column number, or the connector can be
identified without them, BC can be omitted). BGND and
PGND have no row and column number for identification.
The label only carries location information about the opposite equipment, the control
cabinet or the distribution box. The information of the local end is not necessary. Table
C-14
C-6 lists the information of two -48 V power supplies on the label. The information of
other DC voltages (such as 24 V and 60 V) is similar.
Be sure to affix labels in a correction direction. Make sure that the ID plates with the
labels face outwards when bundling the cables with cable ties. Make sure that the text
on the labels in a cabinet are in the same direction, as shown in Figure C-12.

Figure C-12 Example of the labels on the DC power cable
In Figure C-12, (1) indicates the label on the load cabinet side, which carries the
information about the position of the cable on the power distribution box. (2) indicates
the label on the distribution box side, which carries the information about the position of
the cable on the load cabinet side.
On the load cabinet side, the label marked with A01/B08--48V2 on the cable indicates
that the cable is for -48V2 DC supply, which is from the 8th connector on the second row
of -48V bus bar in the cabinet on Row A, and Column 1 in the equipment room.
On the distribution box side, the label marked with B03--48V2 indicates that the cable
is for -48V2 DC supply, which is from the load cabinet on Row B, Column 03 in the
equipment room.
C-15
Note:
z In the power distribution box (or the first power cabinet of a row in the transmission
equipment room), every terminal block on the -48V connector bar has a numeric
identification. For example, in the above label of A01/B08--48V2, 08 (or
sometimes 8) is the numeric identification of the terminal block.
z PGND and BGND are two copper bars. On each bar, the terminal blocks are
short-circuited. Therefore, which terminal is connected makes no difference. You
only need give the row number and column number of the power distribution box,
instead of giving the specific serial number of the terminal block on the copper bar.
For example, if the label on the load cabinet side is A01-BGND, it means that the
power cable is a BGND that connects BGND copper bar in the power distribution
box on Row A, Column 01 in the equipment room. The information on the labels for
PGND cables is similar.

Figure D-1 Dust-free pick (1)
Figure D-2 Dust-free pick (2)
D.2.2 Selection
Select a cleaning means for an optical fiber connector depending on the transmission
rate of the fiber, specifically:
z Dust-free cloth and anhydrous alcohol are applicable to the fiber connectors that
bear low-rate (2.5 Gbit/s or low) transmission.
z Wiping paper, wiping boxes, and dust-free picks are applicable to the fiber
connectors that bear high-rate (10 Gbit/s or wavelength division system)
transmission.
z Dust-free picks are applicable to the fiber connector that integrates an optical
module with a flange on the front panel of a board.
D.3 Cleaning Requirements
The requirements for the cleaning of an optical fiber connector are as follows:
1) Clean the places around the optical fiber connector before cleaning the
connector.
D-2
2) Insert the optical fiber connector immediately into the corresponding optical
sub-board or flange after cleaning it lest the corresponding port on the sub-board
or flange becomes dirty.
3) Do not touch the end face of the optical fiber connector after cleaning it. Cover it
with a protective cap if it is not in use for the moment.
4) Clean the flange on the optical subboard and the optical port in the board only
when:
z The detected optical power performance of the subboard supporting optical
power detection is greatly different from the actual measured optical power.
z The subboard that does not support optical power detection reports alarms or the
transmit optical power of the subboard is greatly different from the typical optical
power even if the receive optical power is within its working range.
5) Examine the optical port surface using a fiber microscope. Make sure that the
optical port is clean.
z When the Raman amplifier applies to the wavelength division multiplexing (WDM)
system, examine the surfaces of all optical ports before the input ports using a
fiber microscope.
z Examine the surfaces of all optical ports on the link of long-distance transmission
(over 120 km) of WDM equipment and 10G MADM equipment.
D.4 Precautions
I. Fiber Protection
The protection requirements for optical fibers are as follows:

z Never bend fibers smaller than 90.
z Coil up extra fibers into a round or 8. Never wind them around each other.
z Never apply more than 1 kg axial tension to a fiber. Never hang anything on only
a fiber.
z Never apply any impulse force to the axis of a fiber. Protect the optical fibers
from crush.
z Never place any optical fiber at 85 C or higher.
II. Laser Safety
Never look at the exit of an optical fiber directly lest the laser injures eyes.
D.5 Cleaning Methods
