    15dBm (damage level is 22dBm). Use additional equipment to attenuate the power. Caution: The input power to the Zinwave Remote Unit should not exceed -10dBm. Power levels greater than +10dBm will damage the unit Caution: The total broadband composite output power of the 305-0007 Remote Unit is limited to +18 dBm in Europe and +20 dBm in the USA and Canada.
  • Page 9: Fiber Considerations

    Caution: Connector types must match (i.e. SC-APC to SC-APC). Otherwise, there will be an air gap between the connector faces that will create high back reflection and high optical loss. Caution: Zinwave hardware ONLY supports SINGLE Mode Fiber. Caution: Fiber handling procedures should be carefully observed so as not to damage or introduce dirt to fiber interfaces during installation.
  • Page 10: Optical Safety Precautions

    Caution: While the system can be configured with poor optical links present, this may affect the system performance and such links should be examined and brought into specification in order to obtain optimum performance. Copyright © 2022 Zinwave. All rights reserved.

  • Page 22: System Overview

    User Manual 1 System Overview Zinwave’s UNItivity 5000 in-building wireless solution provides cellular and public safety access services to buildings, campuses, and venues, delivering end-to-end all fiber service on a single converged system. Zinwave’s unique wideband architecture supports any service mix, protocol, or modulation scheme over a wide frequency range.

    Primary Hub, 8 associated Secondary Hubs, and 64 Remote Units (a 1-8-64 configuration). 1.3.1 Single-Star Configuration In its single star fiber-to-antenna topology, UNItivity 5000 supports a Primary Hub with up to 8 Remote Units. Copyright © 2022 Zinwave. All rights reserved.
  • Page 24: Double Star Configuration

    Secondary Hubs each supporting 8 Remote Units, bringing the system total to up to 64 Remote Units. 1.3.3 Mixed Topology Configuration The UNItivity 5000 system can also support a mixed topology, such that some of the Remotes can be directly connected to the Primary Hub (single star configuration) while also supporting other Remotes connected via Secondary Hubs (double star configuration).

    Units: however, now 32 of those units have MIMO A and the other 32 MIMO B. If the MIMO installation still uses SISO antennas, the number of antennas remain the same at 128, 64 Copyright © 2022 Zinwave. All rights reserved.
  • Page 26: Understanding Optional Components

    Note: The MIMO routing is done via the Signal Routing Matrix in the Primary Hub. 1.4 Understanding Optional Components You can enrich the standard UNItivity 5000 solution by incorporating optional components. Optional components enhance the system input capability or the operation of a core component. The POI expands system RF input capability while the stand-alone PSU provides a simple to install power capability for Remote Units connected directly to the Primary Hub.

    Remote Units see 7.1.1 Isolation The minimum isolation between Tx and Rx required for correct operation of UNItivity 5000 in both the uplink and downlink service bands is usually 40dB (this requirement should be confirmed for any given installation within the Zinwave Coverage Tool).
  • Page 58: Uplink/Downlink Balance

    This is usually done in the head-end by moving attenuation from the uplink to downlink paths. However, in some case the UL/DL balance setting can also be used within the UNItivity 5000 platform if the uplink gain is not already at maximum. •...
  • Page 59: Connecting The Psu Or Secondary Hub Power Port To Remote Units

    The Phoenix Contact connectors used on the Zinwave equipment support wire thickness up to AWG 12. The guidance for the maximum distance that can be achieved for given AWG wire is as follows, when a single Remote Unit is powered with a single conductor pair.

    Ensure the 48V connection is made with correct polarity. Note: If you use your own 48V power supply, rather than the Zinwave Remote PSU or Secondary Hub, the cable instructions are the same as for the Zinwave equipment.
  • Page 61: Uplink System Noise

    (measured or calculated) The Noise contribution of the Zinwave Active DAS is related to the amount of equipment in the system. It is proportional to the additive noise power from each Remote Unit. It can be calculated from: NF= 14 + 10 x LOG (SQRT(qty of RUs)) + 10 x LOG (SQRT(qty of SHs)) This an empirical formula that gives a “best fit”...

    UniTransport Hub. If the number of connected RUs were to be doubled from 64 to 128, expect the noise power at the BTS to increase by 3dB. As before, the POI UL attenuation would need to be adjusted to achieve a compliant uplink noise power at the BTS. Copyright © 2022 Zinwave. All rights reserved.
