1 Introduction
Powerwave Optical Repeater consists of Fiber Base Unit (FBU or MU) and Remote Unit (RU).
The FBU converts and reconverts RF signals to optical signals. The truly modular design of the
FBU ensures a cost efficient solution for any DAS configuration. Configurable with up to 6 fiber
optical boards with WDM as an option, the FBU is intended to feed star and point-to-point
RU work as bi-directional on-frequency amplifiers used to fill out uncovered areas in wireless
mobile systems such as base station fringe areas, tunnels, convention centers, airports and business
buildings. It receives, amplifies and transmits signals between a base transceiver station (BTS) and

Fiber connector in the FBU is FC/APC, and in Movistar IBS Project, the ODF
connector is SC/PC, please use the proper fiber jumper for FBU and ODF connection.
In Movistar IBS project, the Power Supply Module’s input power is -48VDC, not
usually is 43dBm, so it’s better for us to use 20 or 15 dB coupler to get the signal.

Notice:
In Movistar IBS project, we use Wideband Radio Head (WRH), it contents 2 band,
Though some sites we ongly use 850, but we also use the FON at base, so supply power
to both base and door. Besides, please change the power module input power (a red

3 Configuration
We need below:
Om-online Software
RAS Configuration
Step1: Connect the USB to Serial Cable to your PC, and install the driver.
Step2: Open Windows Device Manger to check which COM is used by the cable, and it’s
better to make it between COM1 to COM9. Remember the COM number and always use the same
USB port in order to get the same COM number. If you use another USB port, the COM number
will change.
For WinXP: install OM-Online WB in the disk or download higher version in Powerwave
Website.
For Win7: it’s better to install OM-Online WC, because it supports win7 better.
Huawei Computer has the CPM to block ports. Even you have the USB write and Serial Port right,
the RAS still doesn't work. So use one no port protected PC is necessary to create the RAS.
For RAS Configuration, check OM-Online Help Topic for more details. Below is the
configuration for USB to Serial Cable in WinXP. (Notice: For Win7, the Help Topic Tutorial is
