Product Overview

1 Product Overview

This document describes the Radio Units (RUs) for RBS 6000 systems.

For information on location in the RBS cabinet, see RBS Description.

1.1 Purpose
The main purpose of the RU is to send and receive signals.

The RU receives digital data and converts it to analog radio signals. It also
receives radio signals and converts these to digital signals.

Figure 1 and Figure 2 shows the interface of the RU.

1.2.1 Naming Conventions

The name convention can be expressed as:

RU<t> <gg> <bb>

t = G | L | W | S; G for GSM, L for LTE, W for WCDMA, S for Multistandard

gg = generation; 01 and so on

bb = 3GPP band; B1 and so on

1.3 Warranty Seal

The unit is equipped with a warranty seal sticker.

Note: Seals that have been implemented by Ericsson shall not be broken
or removed, as it otherwise will void warranty.

Radio Unit Description

2 Function Description

The RU is certified for 60 W and 80 W. The default output power without

license keys is 20 W. License keys are used to set the output power to 40 W,
60 W or 80 W.

Note: For 80 W output power, besides a license key, it is required that the
hardware has 80 W capability.

The RU has the following functions:

• Transceiving Processing

• Uplink and downlink filtering

• Power Amplifier (PA) functions

• Up to four carriers downlink and uplink with 2-RX diversity

• Supports the function Remote Electrical Tilt (RET)

• Support for external antenna equipment such as Antenna System

Controller (ASC), Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA), Frequency Shifting
Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMF), and RETU Interface Unit (RIU)

RXA and RXB Port Usage in Typical Cross-connect and Co-siting

Configurations

Cross-connect RX A I/O (out): RF A RX signal to cross-connected unit.

RX B I/O (in): RX signal from cross-connected unit.

Co-site RX A out: RF A RX signal to co-sited RBS.

RX B I/O (out): RF B RX signal to co-sited RBS.

The I/O ports are configured individually by software as input or output.
