(DAS). The 2700 DAS comprises a Hub Unit (HU) and remote Antenna Units (AUs) with Small Form Pluggable (SFP) modules providing the RF to Optical interface. The simple view of the ZinWave 2700 DAS is that it enables downlink radio signals to be converted into RF modulated optical signals at the HU and then transmitted to remote AUs over any optical fibre medium (single mode or multimode) where the optical RF signal is converted back into pure radio signals for radiation from attached Antennae.
INSTALLATION AND TECHNICAL MANUAL WARRANTY The ZinWave 2700 DAS is designed to operate in conditions conformant with Pollution Degree 2 as defined in IEC 60950 (the normal environmental class for offices). The installation of sub-assemblies into the main units of the The ZinWave 2700 DAS shall only be undertaken if precautions required by IEC/TS 61340-5-1 have been taken.

OVERVIEW OF THE ZINWAVE 2700 DAS Introduction The ZinWave 2700 DAS is a simple 2-stage DAS, utilising either multimode optical fibre (MMF) or singlemode optical fibre (SMF) to connect the two system units together. The ZinWave 2700 DAS unifies the distribution of multiple cellular and WLAN signals over a single cabling infrastructure and supports current and future wireless technologies.
The ZinWave transceivers within the hub and antenna units are “fibre agnostic” i.e. they can be used with either 50/125 mm or 62.5/125 µm MMF. ZinWave 2700 channels can be up to 550 metres long provided that the MMF cable has a modal bandwidth of at least 500MHz.km @ 1300 nm.

50173-1 and the laser optimised products specified in ANSI/TIA/EIA-B.3 do not generally require such controls but are not differentiated in this document. Where multimode optical fibres are to be used within ZinWave 2700 DAS channels they shall be terminated by the fusion splicing of ZinWave high concentricity (hi-conn) pigtails as listed in Table 3-8.
Each ZinWave 2760 or 2776 Antenna Unit is connected to a Telecommunications Outlet (TO) which terminates the wireless application overlay cabling. In order to simplify the installation of the TO and the cabling to the TO, the ZinWave components listed in Table 3-9 should be used.
The provision of remote power to the ZinWave 2760 or 2776 Antenna Units is achieved by the termination of an industry- standard Category 5e/Category 5:2002 balanced cables using the IEC 60603-7 socket in the TO Closure.
4.1.1 ZinWave 2700 DAS infrastructures One of the key advantages of the ZinWave 2700 DAS is the way in which it can use and be integrated with generic/structured cabling systems designed in accordance with the following standards: North America: ANSI/TIA/EIA-568 series;...
ZinWave Local Splice Panel can be installed in any convenient location, is completely passive and • requires no mains power supplies; the BD/ICs of Figure 4-1 are replaced by ZinWave Building Splice Panels as shown in the lower diagram in Figure • 4-2;...
The ZinWave 2700 DAS recognises this restriction but can, where necessary, operate over extended lengths provided that the total length and the channel insertion loss of the cabling channel from the ZinWave 2700 Hub Unit to each ZinWave 2760 or 2776 Antenna Unit does not exceed the values shown in Table 2-1. Nevertheless, to enable integration of the ZinWave 2700 DAS cabling within future generic/structured cabling it is recommended that length between the ZinWave Local Splice Panel and the TOs should not exceed 90 metres.
The same distribution of 2760 or 2776 Antenna Units connection points applies to if the cabling is installed specifically to serve the ZinWave 2700 DAS using stand-alone cabling. ISO/IEC TR2 24704 recommends a “honeycomb” distribution grid as shown in Figure 4-3 which features the best overall coverage (450 m per TO).
Figure 4-4: ISO/IEC TR2 24704 “Equivalent” square array ZinWave recommends that cabling to the wireless application TOs is installed to support 2760 or 2776 Antenna Units using the guidelines of this clause for both generic/structured and stand-alone cabling (where references to the FD/HC should be taken as the ZinWave Local Splice Panel).
TOs will be less than that specified in Table 4-2. It should be noted that the number of TOs does not mandate the number of ZinWave 2760 or 2776 Antenna Units or the usage of those Antenna Units (see 4.8). However, the number of TOs does define the number of optical fibres to be provided from the FD/HC, and where a direct correspondence is applied, the number of optical fibres required in the backbone cabling subsystem which services the FD/HC.
If there are adequate numbers of unused (or reassignable) multimode optical fibres in the building backbone cabling then their use for the ZinWave 2700 DAS will require, as shown in Figure 4-7: a crossconnection using the appropriate ZinWave hi-conn “patch cord” between the and the ZinWave Termination •...
Where existing backbone cables are to be used for the distribution of the ZinWave 2700 DAS, the optical fibre in the ZinWave TO cables (see Table 3-9), launch cords, hi-conn pigtails and patchcords (see Table 3-8), shall be selected to match those of the backbone cable.
(see 4.3.3) and more secure distribution of the services provided over the • ZinWave 2700 DAS by using ZinWave Splice Panels (as shown in Figure 4-6 and Figure 4-8) in as many locations as possible.
INSTALLATION AND TECHNICAL MANUAL As the ZinWave 2700 DAS is “fibre-agnostic”, any selection of media may be made on a number of criteria including cabling installation cost, future requirements etc. The selection of the optical fibre media to be used and how they are to be connected should also take into account the considerations of channel length and channel insertion loss outlined in clause 4.3.3.
Optical fibre channel Figure 4-9: Optical fibre channel A ZinWave 2700 DAS optical fibre channel will comprise lengths of cable and a number of connections and fusion spliced joints. For the purposes of this clause, the following assumptions are made: the attenuation coefficients of the multimode cabled optical fibres are those of Table 4-3 (a common value of •...
Singlemode optical fibre channel length and channel insertion loss calculations Figure 4-11 shows typical configurations for ZinWave 2700 DAS channels using internal singlemode optical fibre cables to the specifications quoted in Table 4-3. Figure 4-11 shows that for channels containing up to six connections and five...
Accommodation of ZinWave TO Closures Each ZinWave TO Closure provides the capacity for 2 No. ZinWave TO cables and 2 No. 4 pair balanced cables (for provision of remote power feeding to ZinWave 2760 or 2776 Antenna Units. If fully populated a ZinWave TO Closure...

Transceiver Distribution 4.8.1 General Clauses 4.1 to 4.7 have concentrated on the cabling infrastructure to support a ZinWave 2700 DAS. This clause focuses on the topics required to optimise the functionality of the ZinWave 2700 DAS using the infrastructure. 4.8.2...
Multimode optical fibre cables The termination of all multimode optical fibres to be used by the ZinWave 2700 DAS shall be via the fusion splicing of ZinWave hi-conn pigtails as detailed in Table 3-8. The adaptors shall be SMF variants of the relevant connector style.
5.1.4.2 Singlemode optical fibre cables The termination of all singlemode optical fibres to be used by the ZinWave 2700 DAS shall be via the fusion splicing of industry-standard pigtails. The adaptors shall be SMF variants of the relevant connector style.
