About MSADe
Description
The MSADe is the indoor unit of the WiBAS Terminal Station (WiBAS TS)
located at the customers premises. It is an advanced network device that
can perfectly meet all access requirements at a service location for a large
number of different applications.
The role of MSADe is to control the TRS (Terminal Station Radio System),
implement the baseband modem, and provide the user network interfaces.
With the support of highly developed interworking mechanisms and
sophisticated QoS features, it stands for a comprehensive gateway,
addressing the needs of demanding high-end customers.
The following schematic depicts the components and the end-to-end network
interconnection for a WiBAS system:
The MSADe is a 1 RU ETSI 19 subrack suitable for desktop or rack

mounting.
The case is environmentally and temperature hardened and is made of
pressure die cast aluminum.
No movable mechanical parts (i.e. fans) are employed for cooling, as they
turn out to be unreliable and prone to failures. Instead, passive cooling is
employed, a technique that also provides outstanding mechanical reliability.
All connection receptacles are accessible from the front panel.
The following photos show two models of the MSADe subrack:
MSADe-4ETH-8E1-DC (Ethernet plus E1)
MSADe-4ETH-DC (Ethernet only)

11
WiBAS MSADe
Site Prerequisites, Continued

Indoor
premises
conditions
The operating conditions (temperature, humidity) at the indoor premises

should meet the specifications given by the manufacturer of the indoor
equipment.
Indoor
grounding
system
All racks within the installation premises should be connected to a lowresistance grounding system. The metal body of the rack, into which the
MSADe subrack is to be mounted, should be connected to this grounding
system.
The enclosure of each subrack must be electrically connected to the racks
metal body (via a short grounding cable) to provide protection against
harmful discharge conditions.
Cable conduits
Appropriate cable conduits should exist for the routing of installed cables,
inclusive of the coaxial IF cable(s) connecting the indoor equipment with the
outdoor transceiver boxes on the buildings roof.
IF cable
The IF cable, connecting the indoor equipment (MSADe) with the outdoor
transceiver box (TRB), should be of coaxial 75-ohm type.
The maximum length of the IF cable depends on its quality and the
degradation that it imposes to the carried IF signal.
Typical lengths of IF cable are given below:
175 m, using RG-11 low-loss coaxial cable of 8.3 dB/ 100 m at 420 MHz
attenuation.
145 m, using RG-11 low-loss coaxial cable of 10.15 dB/ 100 m at 616 MHz
attenuation.
NOTE
Power supply
requirements
Under no circumstance should the total attenuation (imposed by

the IF cable itself) exceed 15 dB.
Depending on the MSADe model (AC or DC model), a DC distribution board

or an earthed AC outlet 10 A is required.
If the MSADe DC model needs to be powered by two independent power
sources, both MSADe power inputs need to be connected. In this case, the
DC distribution board should be equipped with two Magnetic Circuit Breakers
(MCB, single-pole, 10 A, 80 V dc, B-curve for Telecom Applications).
In any other case, only one MSADe power input should be connected.
Rack
requirements
The indoor equipment will be installed in an ETSI equipment rack.

1 RU space must be reserved in the equipment rack for the MSADe subrack.
No extra space is required for cooling. Also, sufficient free space should be
left around the rack position to allow for easy access, handling, maintenance
and inspection of the installed equipment.
12
WiBAS MSADe
Site Prerequisites, Continued

Distributors
lightning
protection
The network port distributors (optical distributors excluded) and the power
supply distributors should be equipped with the appropriate gas arresters, to
provide protection against lightning conditions.
Such conditions may induce voltage peaks on the cables, and thus disturb
the operation of the indoor equipment. For this purpose, all electrical
distributors should be connected to the local grounding system to allow the
installed gas arresters to operate.
Lightning
protection at
specific sites
In sites with increased lightning possibility (1), adequate lightning protection

should be used for the IF cable coming from the Outdoor Unit. More
specifically, the IF cable should be properly grounded with special grounding
kits installed along the cable (outdoor installation) and a lightning arrestor
installed anywhere along the IF cable (indoor installation). The Manufacturer
can provide the grounding kits and lightning arrestor on customers request.
(1) Sites in which the ODU installation place completes one of the following conditions:
It is at a high altitude (i.e. on a hill or mountain).
It is the highest point from all the adjacent installed at a perimetric area.
It is characterized by frequent occurrence of lightning.
Preparation of
the installation
premises
Access to the installation premises must be facilitated during the installation

period.
Entrances must be large enough to enable the easy transportation of the new
equipment.
The floor must be level, smooth and able to bear the load of the equipment.
The roof must be engineered to bear the weight of the service personnel and
the outdoor equipment.
Safety
The indoor equipment premises should be of restricted access.

Only trained, authorized personnel should have access to the installed
equipment.
Appropriate labeling should exist at points with high risk of contact with
hazardous voltage.
A list with emergency phone numbers (e.g. medical assistance numbers)
should be hung at easy-to-view positions.
Also, recommended are for safety purposes, a fire detection system and fire
extinguishers (installed at easy-to-access points) inside the installation
premises.

Local DC Power Source Connection (for MSADe DC Models)

Prerequisites
The following are recommended:

The power at the input of MSADe must be in the range
40,5 V dc to 60 V dc.
The positive pole of the power supply source at the MSADe station must
be grounded.
Safety requirements require a single pole circuit-breaker to be
employed between the local dc power supply source and each
power input of MSADe. The circuit-breaker must disconnect the -V
