1 Purpose

1.1 Version Description

The Huawei BTS3900 Survey Guide V1.0 applies to the construction and expansion of the
Huawei BTS3900.

1.2 Product Overview

The BTS3900 is a dual-mode macro Base Transceiver Station (BTS) developed by Huawei
for indoor application. The BTS3900 provides customized solutions for the GSM/UMTS
radio access network based on different requirements and network environments.
The indoor BTS3900 provides GSM/UMTS dual-mode solution. A mobile telecomm operator
can deploy the GSM network and UMTS network in one BTS3900 cabinet. That is, one
system supports two radio network standards at the same time. The BTS3900 supports hybrid
application and separate deployment of the 2G network and 3G network. The multi-mode
BTS ensures cost-effective deployment of a UMTS network.
The platform design of the multi-mode BTS3900 enables the GSM BTS and UMTS NodeB to
share the same cabinet and the BBU. The RF units use the same hardware platform. That is,
the BTS RF modules and NodeB RF modules can be inserted into each other's slots; thus
implementing smooth evolution from the BTS to NodeB.
The features of the BTS3900 are as follows:
1. Advantages of the uniformed platform
The BTS3900/BTS3900A is developed on the basis of the unified BTS platform for Huawei
wireless products and shares one cabinet with the BTS3836 in the WCDMA network. The
BTS3900/BTS3900A can be combined with the WCDMA BTS3836 to support dual mode.
The DRFU of the BTS3900 and the WRFU of the BTS3836 can be installed in one cabinet to
support dual mode. In the future, module-level dual mode can be supported through the
competitive RF module. The BBU of the dual-mode GU can be installed in the BTS3900 to
support dual mode. All the hardware can be installed in the BTS3900 to support dual mode.
The mapping APM and power cabinet are same to the BTS3900 cabinet in dimensions. Thus,
they can be flexibly stacked with the main equipment.
2. Flexible installation, low maintenance cost

2023-4-25 Huawei Technologies Proprietary Page 10 of 36

 Huawei BTS3900 Survey Guide V1.0 INTERNAL

The BTS3900/BTS3900A cabinet is 900 mm or 700 mm in height. The indoor cabinet can be
stacked with the outdoor cabinet, thus lowering the requirements for the area and height of the
equipment room. The cabinet can be flexibly installed indoors or outdoors. Thus, no crane is
needed, reducing the cost of maintenance and installation, especially reducing the cost in the
areas where the cost of maintenance and installation is high. Because the
BTS3900/BTS3900A has advantages in installation and maintenance, it is recommended in
the medium/small-capacity network swapping market.
3. Comprehensive functions
The BTS3900/BTS3900A integrates all the software functions of the Huawei double-
transceiver BTS series. It shares the BBU, which is the central processing unit, with the
DBS3900. It supports Abis over IP in hardware and enables IP transmission through software
upgrade if required. In the dual-band network market, the BTS3900 supports the S444+S444
configuration on one footprint, thus saving the area of equipment room.

4 Survey Process Introduction

4.1 Preparation
After receiving a survey notice, you must read the contract, Technical Proposals and network diagram carefully.
And be clear about the equipment configurations of office and the relative connections. When meeting a problem,
query in time. After you are familiar with the whole project, you can contact the customer in advance and confirm
the personnel for the survey coordination and site survey. In addition, confirm the time and work arrangements.

4.1.1 Equipment Configuration List and Technical Proposals

Study Technical Proposals and the equipment configuration list carefully. If you have a doubt about the Technical
Proposals and equipment configurations, or in Technical Proposals, the descriptions for the technical scheme,
engineering interface division or schedule are not clear, negotiate with the contract handling personnel in time.
Sometimes, in the contract and Technical Proposals, there are some errors. The survey and design engineers
should review the technical scheme to make it realizable and operable. For the problems found in the review, feed
back in time to sales and R&D personnel. Revise the technical scheme and contract configuration in time. In this
way, avoid unnecessary or insuperable difficulties.

4.2 Site Preparation Coordination Meeting

The purpose of a survey coordination meeting is to make Huawei technical personnel and the leaders of customer
have a face-to-face negotiation chance. By the coordination meeting, the leaders of customer can have perceptual
knowledge for the project. So we can get more support from the customer. For different projects, the coordination
meetings can be held in different ways. For general projects or lower-level customers, small symposiums can be

2023-4-25 Huawei Technologies Proprietary Page 22 of 36

 Huawei BTS3900 Survey Guide V1.0 INTERNAL

held. But for very important, complex or high-level projects, you must search for the support of the relative
departments in Huawei. Technical communion meetings can be held at this time. After arriving at a project site,
first, design engineers should contact the engineering, maintenance, or network construction owners and the
technical personnel of customer party. And explain in detail the whole project implementation to relative
personnel of customer party. Let the customer be clear about the preparation jobs and the matching facilities
which must be prepared. In addition, decide the schedule.


4.3 Site Survey

For the offices which have the survey conditions, carry out site surveys. Before a survey, bring up the matching
facility demand to the customer in advance, for example, power supply, grounding bar, air conditioner, cabling
rack or movable floor. Negotiate with the customer to confirm the placement positions of equipment, cabling
paths and capacity expansion reserved positions. For the equipment room parameters concerned, the distances
between equipment rooms and the core number of optical fiber cable, you can know from the customer party.
During site surveys, according to the requirements in the contract and survey report, carry out surveys for all the
items carefully. Record the relative data. Do not rely on your experience.

4.3.1 Key Points of Survey for Indoor Installation

The key survey points for indoor installation are as follows:
 Make sure that the equipment room has adequate ventilation and cooling means.
 Determine the exact location of the equipment room, say, the floor and room number.
 Record the structure and appearance of the building (taking pictures if possible).
 Determine the length, width, and height of equipment room, as well as the location of the
key bearing wall.
 If the brackets are used for the installation of the cabinets, record the conditions of the
ground. For example, you should measure and record the height of the ESD floor once it
is used in the equipment room.
 Determine the location and bearing capacity of the doors, windows, and the main beam.
 Acquire the information about the locations and dimensions of the original equipment in
the equipment room.
 Determine the locations and heights of the feeder window and cabling rack.
 Survey the cabling route of the antenna feeders.
 Determine the locations and dimensions of other obstacles.
 If any cabling trough is present in the equipment room floor, record its specific location
and take full consideration of its impacts.
 Determine how the equipment room is powered, where the mains supply is routed from,
and whether the connecting terminals are enough. Determine whether the power supply
meets the requirements for outdoor cabinets.
 Acquire the information about the lightning protection grounding system, the locations
of the indoor and outdoor grounding bars, and the layout of the ground grid.

Of the 14 digits in the contract number, the first 6 digits represent the local postcode; the
following 6 digits represent the time for signing the contract in the format of year-month-date;
the last 2 digits represent the company’s internal number, usually 0A or 0B.
Figure 1-7 shows the structure of the 14-digit contract number.

Figure 1-7 Structure of the 14-digit contract number

The structure of the 14-digit contract number is as follows:

 Postal code
− Domestic market: 6-digital code used in China

2023-4-25 Huawei Technologies Proprietary Page 25 of 36

 Huawei BTS3900 Survey Guide V1.0 INTERNAL

− International market: 3-digit country code + 000

The country code adopts the GB/T 2659-94 Codes for the Representation of Names of
Countries and Regions, which is equivalent to the ISO3166 Codes for the
Representation of Names of Countries and Regions (revised in July 1993). Its 3-
character Latin code list of country and region names in the world is cited. The last 3
digits are 0s by default.
 Signing data
Year, month, and date present the date of formal contract signing. The first 2 digits
indicate the A. D. year, the middle 2 digits indicate the month, and the last 2 digits
indicate the date. For example, 060815 means August 15, 2006.
 Company interior code
This field specifies HUAWEI company interior code.For example,0A,0B and so on.

Currently many contracts are numbered using 14 digits. The 18-digit contract number is not yet in
formal use. The 14-digit contract number is still being used on many occasions, say, in the IT system. As
a result, Huawei has not yet enforced the use of 18-digit contract numbers, so the 14-digit contract
numbers are still in use.

5.1.3 Original Contact Number

This number does not apply to sites where the contract number has never changed.

5.1.4 Quotation Number

Fill in the final contract quotation number of the site that matches the data in this survey
report. Check whether the quotation number contains 16 digits.

5.1.5 Survey Office

Fill in the site names mentioned in this contract and the site names of this survey.
Complete the survey report by referring to the quotation and contract information. If the
actual site name differs from the site name specified in the contract quotation, add the name
(BB) of the different site in brackets next to the original site name AA, for example, AA
(BB). Alternatively, explain it clearly in the report remark. Each contract usually involves a
number of sites, but a survey report may only cover some sites listed in the contract. Thus, the
survey engineers should clarify the number of sites whose surveys are completed. The survey
engineers should also explain the situation in which separate surveys are conducted.

5.1.6 Contact Information

For electronic survey reports sent back to the HQ, please fill in the cover the names (or
offices), phone numbers, faxes, and contact personnel of the two parties. Huawei contact
person is the survey design owner or product manager of local office.

5.3 Equipment Room Layout and Cabling Drawings

5.3.1 Placement of Equipment in a Room
Principles for Placing the BTS3900 Equipment
The survey report must provide equipment room layout and cabling drawings. Each site
should be surveyed separately with respective drawings. Drawings must be made according to
the drawing specifications of the Engineering Design Department. The equipment room
layout drawing should be developed according to the requirements on designing a layout
drawing for a switch equipment room.
The "position of equipment" includes dimensions of the equipment and spacing of the
equipment with other equipment and the wall. It is necessary to check whether the placement
of equipment conforms to related requirements. Other information can be supplemented as
needed for clear and exhaustive elaboration.
If the BTS3900 equipment has to share a room with other equipment, it is necessary to fully
consider the cabling of existing equipment when placing the equipment cabinet, to avoid
conflicts between AC and DC cabling.
The power cabinet should be placed as near as possible to the AC power distribution cabinet
while allowing for expansions.
Placement of cabling racks should allow for cabling routes of all equipment in the room so
that the least cabling racks are used. Cabling racks should be placed according to the
installation of specific equipment so that the cabling is reasonable and eye-pleasing.
The BTS3900 equipment can be installed against a wall. In this case, placement of equipment
should follow the principles below:
 The sides or back of a cabinet can be installed against a wall.
 Two cabinets can be installed back to back.
 Two cabinets can be installed shoulder to shoulder.
 At least a 0.8 m wide passage should be reserved in front of a cabinet.
Position of the Environment Monitor
An environment monitor is not mandatory for a BTS. This survey task is necessary only when
a Huawei environment monitor is ordered and included the contract.
A baseband unit (BBU) provides at most 16 lines of Booleans. Each –48 V cabinet uses one
line of Boolean. Each +24 V cabinet takes six lines of Booleans. If the number of Booleans is
smaller than or equal to the number of free Booleans of the BBU, Booleans provided by the
BBU can be used. If the number of Booleans provided by the BBU is not enough for
environment monitoring or if analog values are required, an external environmental
monitoring unit (EMU) should be adopted.
An environment monitor is usually installed on a wall of the equipment room. The
recommended installation height, the distance from the lower edge of the environment
monitor to the ground, is 1500 mm. The positioning of the environment monitor should allow
space for routing of cables, including power and alarm cables. For an active equipment room,
it should be considered whether there are mechanical parts in the selected installation position
for fastening.

5.3.3 Requirements on the Equipment Room Layout and Cabling

Drawings
One layout drawing should be developed for one equipment room. The layout drawing is a
bird's view based on the template provided by the Engineering Design Department.
Specifically, a layout drawing is developed on A3 or A4 paper and the scale is 1:50 or 1:100; a
networking diagram is drawn on A4 paper and the scale is 1:100.
The position of a rack must be reasonable and determined based on thorough negotiation with
the customer. Space for expansions should be reserved according to the expansion plan of the
customer, according to the aforesaid placement principles.
When the installation position of a rack (cabinet) is determined, environment requirements of
the equipment should be fully considered.
The room layout and cabling should be presented in separate drawings unless both are simple
and clear. In the case of upper cabling, the cabling rack usually blocks the cabinet in a bird's
view. To express room conditions more clearly, draw a rack layout drawing and a cabling

2023-4-25 Huawei Technologies Proprietary Page 29 of 36

 Huawei BTS3900 Survey Guide V1.0 INTERNAL

distribution drawing separately. In the case of lower cabling, the room layout and cabling can
be presented in one drawing.
For the central site, the room layout and cabling must be presented in two separate drawings.
The drawings must provide enough information to guide field constructions. The specific
requirements are as follows:
 The unit of all measurements in the drawing is mm.
 Dimensions marked in the drawing are identical with the physical objects.
 The length and width of the room must be specified.
 The position of doors and windows in the room must be specified but dimensions of the doors
and windows and their relative position measurements need not.
 Mark the distances between existing equipment (expressed in continuous thin lines) and the
reference point.
 Mark the distances between the new equipment (expressed in continuous think lines) and the
reference point.
 Mark the distances between reserved equipment positions (expressed in dashed thin lines) and
the reference point.
 Mark the front side of Huawei equipment in the room (with "▲").
 Mark the reference point for rack alignment (with "∆").
 Mark the width of the upper cabling rack and its distance to the ground.
 Specify the dimensions of the cabling troughs and dimensions of other common equipment, like
digital distribution frame (DDF) and main distribution frame (MDF), coming together with
Huawei equipment.
 Mark the positions of holes reserved for cabling in the room.
 Mark the routes of all new cables for the current project of Huawei equipment. If the other end
of a cable cannot be marked in the drawing, its destination must be stated. If two rooms are not
in straight up and down positions or if they are far away from each other, specify the cable
length between the two rooms.
 Routes of all cables are expressed in continuous thick lines with the cable name specified.
 Mark the position, dimensions and distance to the ground of each auxiliary wall-mounted
device in the room related to Huawei equipment.
 Specify the name and type of each auxiliary wall-mounted device in the room related to Huawei
equipment and the row and column numbers of Huawei equipment.
 Mark the outer dimensions of Huawei equipment in the room.
 The drawing must bear signatures and dates of all stages from design through to drawing,
approval and sign-off. Signature of the project owner of the customer must be present in the
sign-off place.
 Specify the height of the room, height of the antistatic floor, and the floor number of the room
in the building. Mark the height and width of the cabling rack in the case of upper cabling.
 Special notes can be remarked in the drawing (for instance, there is other equipment in the rack
position of the current design, which is to be moved away by the customer before project
kickoff; the draft drawing is provided by product line engineers).
 No garbage is present in the room layout drawing and the networking diagram.
Placement of cabling racks should allow for cabling routes of all equipment in the room so
that the least cabling racks are used. Cabling racks should be placed according to the
installation of specific equipment so that the cabling is reasonable and eye-pleasing.

5.4 Survey Data Tables

5.4.1 Schematic Drawing of Cabinet Placement
Enter the equipment positions marked in the room layout drawing in the schematic drawing of
cabinet placement for later activities such as survey approval and configuration to check
whether the survey items (such as side door and base) are correct and complete.

CAUTION
New cabinets and existing cabinets are represented in different fonts.
Based on this drawing, you can determine the number of side doors and the support set.
New equipment is represented in normal thick Hei Ti and existing equipment is represented in thin italic
Kai Ti.
Cabinet description: If cabinets in one row are not in close contact, give a remark or separate them with
a space.
Remark: shockproof treatment (sate field shockproof requirements, if any, in the remark place).

5.4.2 Room Environment

Type of Floor
Inquire about the floor design in detail before the end of room fitment. On an oversea site, if
the antistatic floor is used and the rack is directly fastened on the floor using bolts without a
support, select Others in the Type of Floor field and specify the floor type in the remark.
(This type should be avoided whenever possible.)
Height of Antistatic Floor
The height of an antistatic floor is the distance from the ground to the top surface of the
antistatic floor. This survey item requires that you go to the rack position and measure the
distance with a ruler. Because, in a room laid with antistatic floors, lower cabling is usually
adopted, you should also observe whether there are cables and holes in the planned rack
position for the ease of equipment installation.
Cabling Mode
There are cabling modes, namely, upper cabling and lower cabling. The cabling mode is
decided by the customer. If trunk cables, clock cables, power buses and Ethernet cables are
routed in different modes, the cabling mode herein refers to that of trunk cables. The cabling
modes of other cables should be specified in the cabling drawing. In the case of upper cabling,
it is necessary to enter the lowest height of the cabling rack in the cabinet position (this height
is the distance from the bottom surface of the cabling rack to the top surface of the antistatic
floor if antistatic floors are laid in the room). This helps downstream activities to check
whether the height of the quoted cabinet is fit for field installation.
Installation Mode
The BTS3900 is available with only one type of cabinet and one type of base.
When BTS3900 cabinets are installed separately or in a combination, the base is installed in
almost a same method.

2023-4-25 Huawei Technologies Proprietary Page 31 of 36

 Huawei BTS3900 Survey Guide V1.0 INTERNAL

Depending on the room environment, a cabinet may be installed on an antistatic floor or a

cement floor.
Room Space
The dimensions of a BTS3900 cabinet is 900 mm × 600 mm × 450 mm (height x width x
depth).

5.4.3 Survey of Power Cables and Protection Grounding Cables of

the BTS3900 Cabinet
The BTS3900 supports –48 V, +24 V and 220 V power supplies.
In the case of –48 V power supply, the –48 V input power cable of the BTS3900 is used to
connect an external –48 V DC power supply. There are two input power cables (–48 V), a
blue wire and a black wire with a core cross-sectional area of 16 mm2. The input power cables
need to be assembled in the field. The two wires have a same structure with an OT terminal at
both ends. One end is connected to the corresponding wiring terminal of an external DC
power distribution device. The other end is connected to the terminal marked with "NEG" at
the DCDU-01 power input wiring terminal base.
In the case of +12 V power supply, the +24 V input power cable of the BTS3900 is used to
connect an external +24 V DC power supply. A BTS3900 (+24 V) cabinet requires this cable.
There are two pairs of +24 V input power cables. Each pair includes a red wire and a black
wire with a core cross-sectional area of 25 mm2. The two wires have a same structure with an
OT terminal at both ends. One end is connected to the corresponding wiring terminal of an
external DC power distribution device. The other end is connected to the corresponding
terminal of the wiring unit (+24 V) in the power frame.
In the case of 220 V power supply, the 220 V input power cable of the BTS3900 is used to
connect an external 220 V AC power supply. The BTS3900 (220 V) supports 220 V AC three-
phase inputs and 220 V AC single-phase power inputs. A BTS3900 (220 V) cabinet requires
this cable. A 220 V input power cable includes an L wire and an N wire. The L wire is in
brown with a core cross-sectional area of 16 mm2. The N wire is in blue with a core cross-
sectional area of 16 mm2. The L wire and the N wire have a same structure with an OT
terminal at both ends.
Table5-Table 1-1 lists the specifications of 220 V input power cables.

You need not calculate the cross-sectional area of a power distribution cable. Just calculate the
length of the power distribution cable of each BTS3900 cabinet according to the relative
positions of the cabling route and the power cabinet (or power distribution box).
The protection grounding (PGND) cable of a BTS3900 cabinet serves to connect the
grounding point if the cabinet with an external grounding bar, so as to secure running of the
BTS3900. The PGND cable of a BTS3900 cabinet is a green and yellow single-wire cable,
with an OT terminal at both ends and a core cross-sectional area of 16 mm 2. Measure the
distance between the protection grounding bolt of a BTS3900 cabinet and the corresponding
wiring terminal on the external grounding bar according to the actual cabling route of the
PGND cable. Based on the measurement, you can cut a PGND cable in a proper length.

5.4.4 Survey of the Existing DC Power Cabinet in the Room

A swap project is usually accompanied by expansion. Even if without expansion, the existing
power equipment may be overloaded. So, it is necessary to confirm the manufacturer, model
and capacity of the existing power cabinet in the field. The maximum power consumption of a
BTS3900 system is 2,040 W. The capacity of the BTS3900 is determined on the basis of its
configuration.

5.4.5 Survey of Transmission and Trunk Cables

The BTS3900 now accepts E1 and T1 cables to serve as trunk cables to transmit the baseband
signals between the BBU and the base station controller (BSC). This enables the electrical
connection of the Abis interface.
E1 cables include 75-ohm co-axial cable and 120-ohm twisted pair. One end of an E1 cable is
a DB26 male connector and a connector is assembled at the other end depending on the field
need.
The performance of transmission decides whether the BTS is in normal operation. Connecting
timeslot cross-connect devices in the middle may result in the degradation of transmission
performance. Therefore, it is necessary to record the information.
75-ohm E1 cables can be selected based on the length:

5.4.6 Survey of Optical Fibers

If an embedded optical transmitter is used, it is necessary to know the type of optical port at
the peer end.

5.4.7 Survey of Environmental Alarming

Many operators have implemented environmental alarming, to monitor doors, windows,
smog, mains, primary power supply, microwave, tower and tower lights. It is necessary to
know the environment monitoring mode in previous use.
BTS3900 monitoring includes two parts. One part is monitoring of equipment, such as fan,
power distribution box, and GATM. This part of monitoring is implemented through the
power interface board UPEU and universal environment interface board UEIU equipped in
the BBU. The other part is monitoring of the outer environment of the cabinet, such as
temperature, humidity and access control.
The following environment monitoring solutions are available:
 The BTS collects Boolean value alarms.
 The BTS collects analog value alarms.
 The BTS collects Boolean value alarms by means of an environment monitor.
 A standalone environment monitor transmits alarms to a third-party device in the switch room
on an idle timeslot between the BTS and the switch.

5.4.8 Survey of the Antenna System

Configuration principle of the antenna system: one dual polarization antenna for a site with a
configuration below S444; two dual polarization antennas for a site with a configuration
below S888; a dual-frequency dual polarization antenna or two dual polarization antennas for
S444+S444.
For a swap project, it is necessary to know whether the old antenna system is renovated till
the feeder or the jumper. For renovation till the feeder, it is necessary to know the connector
type of the old feeder or the lightning arrestor of the old antenna. For renovation till the
jumper, it is necessary to ensure that the DIN connector of the old BTS jumper is in a proper
model and size and can be well connected to the DRFU.
Jumpers are used to connect the feeder to the antenna, the feeder to the cabinet, the tower
mounted amplifier (TMA) to the antenna, and the TMA to the feeder. Jumpers are available in
fixed or variable lengths. The jumper to connect the antenna and the feeder is a fixed-length
outdoor jumper. The jumper to connect the feeder and the indoor rack is a fixed- or variable-
length indoor jumper. Fixed-length jumpers have two specifications, namely, 2.5 m DIN-DIN
and 1.5 m DIN-DIN. When a triplex TMA is used, a 2.5 m DIN-DIN jumper is placed
between the antenna and the triplex TMA, and a 1.5 m DIN-DIN jumper is placed between
the triplex TMA and the feeder. When no TMS is used, the 2.5 m DIN-DIN jumper is
adopted.

5.5 Cabling Mode and Cabling Rack

The cabling rack is surveyed when it is configured in the contract.
The BTS3900 equipment adopts top cable outlet. If upper cabling is used, the cabling rack is
placed on top of the cabinet and it is optimal to align the cabling rack with the back edge of

2023-4-25 Huawei Technologies Proprietary Page 34 of 36

 Huawei BTS3900 Survey Guide V1.0 INTERNAL

the equipment. A signal wire should not be parallel to or cross an AC power cable. When this
is unavailable, a distance of at least 200 mm must be assured.
If the contract specifies that Huawei provide the cabling rack, the route of the cabling rack
must be drawn in the equipment room layout drawing. In addition, the Cabling Rack Usage
Details form must be completed and submitted to the configuration team together with the
survey report for order placement.

5.6 Survey Memo

Other unsettled matters in the survey report should be manifested in a survey memo by both
parties. The survey memo must be signed by the customer. If necessary, additional pages can
be used.
 If it is found that the customer can provide no or only part of the survey conditions, explain to
the customer according to related terms of the contract that failure to complete all survey tasks
in time will delay delivery and completion of the project. Write the matter in the memo. Ask
related personnel to sign and report the result to the local and headquarter offices.
 If it is found that the customer fails to complete some tasks, which will not affect the survey.
Write the uncompleted items in the memo and state the specific requirement of each item and
the mandatory time to complete the item (limited to before the deployment of the site). Ask
related personnel to sign and report the result to the local and headquarter offices.
 For matters not dealt with by the survey report, or special cables, boards and equipment to be
customized for the customer, write them in the memo.
 If the customer has special requirements, which do not match up with existing Huawei products
or which Huawei does not satisfy at present, write the requirements in the memo in the form of
a detailed list and report the result to the local and headquarter offices.

5.7 Checking the Installation Environment

5.7.1 Room Conditions
The long-term operating conditions are: temperature raning 15°C–30°C; relative humidity
ranging 40%–75%. The short-term operating conditions are: temperature ranging 0C–45C;
relative humidity ranging 20%–90%. The equipment should also be protected against
damages done by static and interference imposed by electromagnetic fields.
Note: short-term operation means the equipment operates for at most 48 hours in a continuous
manner and not longer than 15 days cumulatively in a year.
An empty BTS3900 cabinet weighs 70 kg. A single-subrack cabinet weighs 142 kg in full
configuration. The equipment room must be able to bear the weight, on a cement floor,
terrazzo floor, resin floor or antistatic floor. The floor must be dustproof, fireproof, insulated
and wearable.
The height of an antistatic floor in the room is the vertical distance from the ground to the
upper top surface of the raised floor. For a new equipment room, recommend the customer to
adopt 300 mm or 330 mm. For a room with a raised floor, a base should be installed. The base
is generally provided by Huawei. If the customer requires that they process the base
themselves. The customer must ensure that the base is in a size suitable for the installation of
the equipment.
The net height of the equipment room is the distance from the installation surface to the lower
part of the beam or air duct. If upper cabling is adopted, the net height must be longer than 3
m; if lower cabling is adopted, the net height cannot be shorter than 2.7 m. The size of the
2023-4-25 Huawei Technologies Proprietary Page 35 of 36
 Huawei BTS3900 Survey Guide V1.0 INTERNAL

room door must ensure convenient entry and exit of equipment. The door should be above 2
m in height and above 1 m in width.

5.7.2 BTS3900 Installation Customer Preparation Guide

Give a BTS3900 Installation Customer Preparation Guide to the customer, to guide the
customer to complete preparations for the installation. Remind the customer to arrange and
give feedbacks on related items in the Guide as early as possible and explain every item to the
customer.

5.8 Engineering Materials and Work Interface

You can demonstrate engineering materials and the work interface in a schematic drawing to
describe the distribution of duties in providing related materials and construction work
between Huawei and the customer.
In the work interface graph, the equipment part must be drawn according to the contract. For
equipment to be provided by Huawei, change dashed lines to continuous lines. For
responsibilities not specified in the commercial contract, you can determine the interface after
consultation with the Huawei transactor and related owners of the customer. If the material
provision interface and the work interface vary, draw a material provision interface graph and
a work interface graph separately.
Unless otherwise specified in the contract, for materials not to be provided by Huawei
according to conventional practices, if the customer insists that Huawei provide the materials,
contact the sales.
