deploy them in the network.

1.1.3 Maintenance Mode

There are two maintenance modes.


Passive maintenance
It refers to the maintenance conducted after faults already happen. For example,
troubleshooting according to alarms is a kind of passive maintenance, which often
occurs when on duty in the equipment room.
Active maintenance

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

1-1
Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance

Active maintenance is performed periodically to check device running, analyze


network status, and raise propositions. So it is a maintenance mode that can “nip in
the bud”. Routine maintenance is a major kind of active maintenance.”
To ensure a stable and secure telecommunication network, you have to conduct
active maintenance to periodically check the network and take measures to prevent
faults from happening.
The maintenance department of an exchange is generally divided into two groups.
One is the centralized maintenance group, responsible for maintenance of all devices
in the equipment room, including device software/hardware, power supply,
transmission and air-conditioners; the other is the network administration group,
responsible for analysis and optimization of network performance. You can plan
maintenance structure and functions of your own exchange.

1.1.4 Maintenance Rules

To ensure the secure and stable running of the UMG8900 and lower maintenance
cost, abide by the following basic rules during maintenance:
Attach great importance to preventive maintenance, especially to routine
maintenance, and establish scientific and strict regulations to ensure efficient
device maintenance.
Keep the equipment room environment complying with related standards. Keep
it clean, tidy, dustproof, moisture-proof and fireproof, and prevent such
animalcules as fungi and mildew from emerging and rodents and insects from
entering the equipment room.
Place the device on the floor with no water inside the equipment room and far
from fire fighting and heating establishments that may drop water on the device.
Accept training before maintenance on basic maintenance theory and
procedures, emergency handling procedures, operating specifications and
security rules, and apply them into maintenance practice.
Never install non-standard software to the key PCs with BAM or emergency work
station (including firewall, anti-virus software, game, pirate software and so on),
or never use such key PCs for other purposes. Otherwise, serious results may be
caused.
Except the delivery attached software, never use other software to access or
modify database. Otherwise, serious results may be caused.
Perform routine check and make records as instructed by this manual.
Removed faults as instructed by the manual as soon as faults are found out. For
the problems you cannot handle, ask help from the local Huawei office.
Conduct maintenance as instructed by this manual, so as to avoid faults caused
by human factors.

Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance

Deal with severe faults according to Huawei UMG8900 Universal Media


Gateway Maintenance Manual—Emergency Maintenance, and inform the
product management of the local Huawei office at the same time.
Mark the damaged boards and put them in the anti-static bag rather than in the
cabinet avoid causing other faults.
Wear anti-static wrist strap when operating the device.
Make records about all key operations like board swap, system reset and
software load. Before such key operations, analyze the feasibility and take
backup, emergency and secure measures.
Do not reset the device, load software to the device, modify exchange
configurations or restart the device, especially cold restart, unless really
necessary. If you really need to modify exchange configurations, back up them
first. To delete the backup data, ensure that the device operates normally for at
least a week.
Keep management-level passwords well and modify them regularly. Assign
different passwords to the people with terminal operation rights and those with
work station operation rights to ensure system security. This rule applies to the
system administrator.
Keep enough spare parts on hand in case of failure, and have failed boards fixed
as soon as possible. This rule applies to operators.
Inform maintenance personnel of the telephone and fax number of the local
Huawei office.

1.1.5 Maintenance Methods

There are multiple maintenance methods for the device.

I. Comparison

This method is relatively simple. You only need to compare failed devices or faulty
data with the correct ones to find out their differences, analyze the differences and
locate faults.

II. Substitution

Substitution is a simple but efficient method for fault location and removal. You can
just replace a hardware component with a new one of the same model and see if
faults disappear. If so, it indicates this component fails and causes the faults. In this
case, you can remove the faults just by replacing it with a new one.

III. System Minimizing

This method is to remove hardware components of a faulty system except those basic
and necessary ones, and check whether the minimized system has faults. If faults still
exist, you can conclude that the left hardware components fail. Otherwise, add the

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

1-3
Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance

hardware components removed just now one by one until the faults occur again. In
this case, you can know that the latest added component has problems, and replace it
with a normal one.

IV. Protocol Tracing

This method is a basic method used for service interfacing and debugging within an
exchange or between exchanges. Since a protocol has uniform standards, you can
exactly locate faults by tracing protocols.

1.1.6 Requirements for Maintenance Personnel

II. According to Maintenance Period

According to maintenance period, equipment room maintenance is classified into the


following types.
Unexpected maintenance
Unexpected maintenance refers to the maintenance caused by device faults, cable
faults or network adjustment. However, unexpected maintenance may occur when
problems are found in daily routine maintenance.
The purpose is to monitor the running status of devices and network in real time and
improve handling efficiency for unexpected faults.
Daily routine maintenance
Daily routine maintenance is performed every day to monitor device running. You
need to record physical position and symptom of the fault in detail to facilitate
troubleshooting.
The purpose of daily routine maintenance is to find out alarms or other problems as
soon as possible, deal with them, and thus ensure normal running and reduce fault
occurrence ratio.
Periodic routine maintenance
Periodic routine maintenance is performed every some time to learn long-term
running status of the devices. It is divided into monthly and yearly maintenances.
The purpose of periodic routine maintenance is to preserve the secure and stable
running state of the device for a long time. The purpose is realized by checking,
testing and cleaning the device and backing up data to see if the device ages,
functions fail or performance degrades and take measures to prevent real faults from
happening.

1.2.3 Maintenance Duty Allocation

I. On-Duty Maintenance

The on-duty maintenance mechanism is established for most equipment rooms. The
on-duty person is responsible for monitoring the entire network in real time and
removing faults, especially sudden faults, or asking help to remove them.

II. Specialized Maintenance

Specialized maintenance is suitable for a network across different geographical areas


and with complex devices. For this maintenance type, certain people are specialized
in maintaining the network of a given geographical area, and a periodic itinerant check
is conducted.

1.3.1 Maintenance Tasks

Network management involves the following tasks.

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

1-8
Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance

I. Performance Statistics

Performance statistics is to measure and analyze performance indices related to


devices and the entire network, and report them to the superior telecommunication
administration department.

II. Network Optimization

Network optimization plan is proposed based on performance statistics and


implemented when approved by the superior department

1.3.2 Performance Statistics

Performance statistics is engaged in collecting network indices such as network


quality, interface traffic, resource utilization and data traffic.

1.3.3 Network Optimization

Network optimization is a long-term task. However, you need to consider optimizing


network especially in the following cases.
When a network is put into use or expanded;
When network performance degrades considerably or customer complaints rise
sharply;
When unexpected events occur and bring great negative effects to the network;
When users type changes greatly.
According to implementation scope, network optimization is classified into partial
network optimization and entire network optimization. In most cases, partial network
optimization is implemented. Entire network optimization is implemented to solve
global problems.
Network optimization has three phases, namely, system investigation, data analysis,
and scheme formulation and implementation.

I. System Investigation

System investigation is to collect and analyze customer complaints, performance


statistics and other information, and preliminarily determine optimization contents and
scope. In this phase you need to gain an overall and deep understanding on the
existing network by acquiring all related information such as the existing network
design, customer complaints, system investigation report and performance statistics.
It is recommended to establish a database to store the information.

II. Data Analysis

Data analysis is to analyze the collected information, find out major problem sources
and output reports.

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

1-9
Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance

III. Scheme Formulation and Implementation

In this phase you need to draw up a scheme including improvement details and
timescale, and submit it to the superior administration department for approval.
After the scheme is approved and implemented, you need to measure performance of
the new network to see if faults are removed and performance is improved. If not, you
need to re-optimize the network.

1.3.4 Operating Environment for NM Computer

The environment for network management (NM) computers operating shall satisfy the
following standards.
The table is steady and large enough to hold NM computers, a key board, a
mouse, a mouse pad, a printer and other facilities.
The computer equipped with the NM system is far from heat sources, damp and
dusty areas. Do not expose it to direct sunshine and keep the computer rear side
8cm away from other objects for ventilation convenience. Do not smoke in the
equipment room.
A work station must be equipped with uninterrupted power supply (UPS) to
protect the operating system from being damaged by sudden power off. It is
recommended to configure UPS for computers to prevent alarms and
performance events being reported from losing due to sudden power off.
Computers and UPS surfaces must connect PGND.
The computers far from the devices that will cause electromagnetic interference
(EMI).

1.4 Requirements for Equipment Room Environment


A favorable equipment room environment is essential for keeping the UMG8900
running in the secure and stable state, lowering faults occurrence ratio caused by
poor environment and prolonging the UMG8900 life. Therefore, you need to take
initiative to improve the equipment room environment and make it satisfy the basic
standards listed in the manual.

1.4.1 Temperature

I. Basic Requirements

The equipment room shall be 5 °C to 45 °C for long-term operation. It can range from
–5 °C to 5 °C or from 45 °C to 55 °C for short-term operation, but the continuous
working time cannot exceed 48 hours and the accumulated time per year cannot
exceed 15 days.

Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance

Note:
The measurement point is 2 m over the floor and 0.4 m from the front cabinet. There
cannot be any protection board surrounding the cabinet.

II. Impact on Device Running

Temperature is one of the major factors deciding whether a telecommunication device


can operate in the secure and stable state for a long time. Over high or low
temperature is harmful for device running.
An over high temperature accelerates ions drift and electrons movement in the
integrated circuits (IC), and multiples penetrable currents. Such increased
circulation will break down circuits and fail the device running.
An over high temperature changes resistance and capacitance, thus changing
work parameters of circuits. These changes may degrade device performance
and even disable the secure and stable running of the device.
In the presence of over high temperature, sockets, plugs and switches may
expand and in poor contact condition, thus affecting for device running.
An over high or low temperature changes the clock dominant frequency of the
clock crystal oscillator circuits, thus affecting synchronization between devices
and increasing bit error rate and slip rate.
An over high temperature speeds up insulation materials aging, while an over
low temperature makes them crisp. Either situation will shorten device lifetime.

III. Solutions

Install ventilation devices and air conditioners.

1.4.2 Temperature Change Rate

I. Basic Requirements

Indoor temperature cannot change violently, and ±5°C fluctuation in one hour is
allowed.

II. Impact on Device Running

As different device components have different thermal capacity, some are more
sensitive to temperature change rate while others are less sensitive.
The bigger the thermal capacity is, the stronger impact the temperature change rate
will put on the component. In addition, a big temperature change rate brings violently
different press to different components due to the rule “expand with heat, and contract
with cold”, thus making the device mechanical structure change, even circuit boards
crack and components be loosely welded.

Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance

III. Solutions

Equip the equipment room with temperature control devices that can keep the room in
a proper temperature no matter what the local climate is.

1.4.3 Relative Humidity

I. Basic Requirements

The relative humidity shall remain 5% to 85% for long-term operation. It can be less
than 5% or range from 85% to 95% for short-term operation, but the continuous
working time cannot exceed 48 hours and the accumulated time per year cannot
exceed 15 days.

Note:
The measurement point is 2 m over the floor and 0.4 m from the front cabinet. There
cannot be any protection board surrounding the cabinet.

II. Impact on Device Running

Relative humidity imposes the following impact on device running.


Over high relative humidity brings a film of water onto component surface.
According to a survey, in the presence of 85% relative humidity, the water film is
0.001 3m to 0.01 3m thick. Water film may make components be electric
conductors and thus degrade electric performance of circuits.
In the presence of over high relative humidity, performance of magnetic
materials degrades, and in and out parts and leading wires tend to be oxidized or
rusted and have a poorer mechanical performance, thus causing loose contact
or short circuits.
In the presence of over low relative humidity, the running or movement of
devices, movable floor and people in the equipment room incline to produce
tribo-static that are harmful for device running and maintenance.
In the presence of over low relative humidity, electrical particles and dusts
increase, thus lowering air cleanness and threatening secure device running.

III. Solutions

The equipment room is equipped with humidity lessening or strengthening devices.


For dry areas, you can use humidity strengthening device or wet mops to increase
humidity. For wet areas, you can use humidity lessening devices.

1.4.4 Air Cleanness

I. Basic Requirements

Air cleanness refers to the concentration of mechanical active substance and


chemical active substance in the air. The Equipment room shall meet the following
requirements.
The equipment room is free from explosive, conducting, magnetic and corrosive
dusts.
Table 1-1 lists the requirements on the concentration of mechanical active
substance:

II. Impact on Device Running

Air cleanness has the following impact on the device running.


If absorbing too many dust particles, electric components and IC will have poorer
heat dissipation ability. If conductive dusts fall into components, the insulation
performance of the components will degrade, which even causes short circuits.
Chemical active substance can also affect communications device running. For
example, a high concentration of SO2 may erode devices, cause loose contact
and short circuits. A high concentration of CO may result in explosion.

III. Solutions

You can take the following solutions to satisfy the requirements on air cleanness.
Use dustproof ground, wall and ceiling.
Equip screens on the doors and windows facing outside. The outer windows
shall be dust-proof.
Clean the equipment room and air filter frame periodically (once every three
months is recommended)
Wear shoe covers and ESD-preventive clothes when entering the equipment
room.
Do not build the equipment room near the place where corrosive gas
concentration is high, such as a chemical plant
Make the air intake vent of the equipment room in the perennial upwind direction
of the pollution source.
Place batteries in the room where communications devices are not stored.
Ask professional organizations to evaluate air cleanness condition.

1.4.5 Electromagnetic Radiation Prevention

I. Basic Requirements

The following requirements must be met.


Electric field intensity ≤ 130 dB (3V/m).
Magnetic field intensity ≤ 800 A/m.

II. Impact on Device Running

Electromagnetic radiation has the following impact on the device running.

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

1-14
Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance

Source of EMI
EMI sources include power cables, transformers, power switches, waveform
distortion of the power supply network due to large device running, space radio
frequency, earth magnetic field, outside radiation and so on.
These sources interfere device running through capacitance coupling, inductance
coupling, corona discharge (from power cables), magnetic radiation (from
transformers and power switches), public resistance (including grounding system)
and wires (such as power cables, signal cables and leading-out cables).
Harm to device running
EMI degree is vital to a communications device as it threatens the secure and stable
running of a device. Too strong electromagnetic inference probably makes
communication babbled, blocked and interrupted, causes bit errors, or even
interfering software operation and damages the device.Solutions

Some measures must be taken to lessen electromagnetic radiation on the equipment


room and between devices.

1.4.6 ESD Prevention

I. Basic Requirements

To prevent or reduce electrostatic discharge (ESD), meet the following requirements.


Ground the device stably with the grounding resistance less than 1 ohm, and
clear electrostatics as soon as possible to avoid electrostatics
accumulation.Equip the equipment room floor with antistatic materials.
Take dustproof measures to avoid absorbing electrostatics.
Keep the equipment room with standard temperature and humidity as regulated
in the previous part.
Do not apply insulating floor wax to the antistatic floor.
Remove insulating oil film, resin and rubber from antistatic table pad, floor and
floor pad as soon as possible. Clean floor pad with neutral or antistatic cleaning
solvent.
Attach anti-static labels to an obvious place of antistatic devices and tools, static
sensitive stuff, and antistatic grounding system.
Abide by antistatic regulations when operating the device, like wearing antistatic
clothes or wrist strap.
The seats must be antistatic. Use the seats made of leatheroid, chemical fibers
or plastics rather than wood.

II. Impact on Device Running

Electrostatics has the following impact on the device running.


Source of electrostatics

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

1-15
Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance

As a person has about 200 pF capacitance, the movement of a person is in nature the
relative movement between electric bodies, which produces electrostatics. The
electrostatics a person discharges relies on clothes material, floor material, indoor
temperature and humidity, movement speed and son. For example, a person
produces less electrostatics when in antistatic clothes than chemical fiber clothes, in a
room with better grounding condition or higher humidity.
Harm to device
The instantaneous voltage of electrostatics can easily reach thousands of volts. When
such electrostatics discharge towards the static-sensitive electric components
applying Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor Transistor (CMOS) such as
large scale IC, these electric components will probably be damaged and cannot be
fixed.
According to a survey, among the damaged boards 60% are damaged due to
electrostatics. Electrostatics may also disable software or electronic switches.

Insulating materials can accumulate electrostatics, while conductive materials cannot.


Insulating materials include plastic floor, nylon carpets, leather shoes, plastic shoes
and chemical fiber clothes. In the environment of over 60% humidity, semi-conductive
floor and cement floor become well antistatic.
Table 1-4 lists electrostatics ranges within which components are damaged.

SCR 680–1000

Table 1-3 and Table 1-4 show threaten of electrostatics on components. They also
show that walking in room with no antistatic facilities for more than 12 seconds will
produce electrostatics over 12 kV. Touching an electrical device at this point will
probably damage the device.

III. Solutions

You can take the following measures.


Train operators about the knowledge of ESC prevention.
Raise the humidity to 60% RH or above to reduce the influence of electrostatics.
Use antistatic floor in the equipment room. When entering the equipment room,
wear ESD-preventive shoes, work clothes, and wrist straps.
Make all conductors including people ground reliably.
Remove electrostatic sources if possible.
Mark the areas needing antistatic measures with explicit labels.
Place the electrostatic sensitive device (ESSD) 30 cm away from electrostatic
sources or farther.

1.5 Requirements for Power Supply


1.5.1 Requirements for AC Power Supply

An AC power supply system consists of mains, UPS and electric generator set. It is
recommended to supply power in a centralized way. A qualified AC power supply
system features simple cables layout, highly security, flexible resource invoke and
easy overhaul. A low-voltage power supply system is designed in three-phase and
five-wire mode or mono-phase and three-wire mode. Table 1-7 lists the voltage and
frequency of a low-voltage AC power supply system.

Table 1-7 Requirements for AC power supply

Nominal Voltage Rated frequency


110/127//220/380 (V) 50 Hz

A network device generally adopts uninterrupted power supply (such as UPS) as the
backup of AC power supply. The backup AC power supply must remain in the same
phase with mains. The UPS/mains switchover time must less than 10 ms; otherwise,
the equipment may be restarted or reset.

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance

The AC of an equipment room is decided by work current and fault current. It must
ensure that every device has an independent AC distribution protection device, and
the protection switch current configured is greater than that of the power supply
device connected to the switch. In designing a DC power supply system, you need to
take into account the maximum payload in dynamic and static conditions. Besides,
you have to reserve enough margin. The cabling in the power distribution panel must
be figured out based on the maximum capacity of the payload provided. In this way,
you can decide the type and size of the conducting wire.
The following lists the requirements for the voltage of AC communications equipments
and power equipments:
For communication equipment with AC power supply, the voltage can deviate
from the rated voltage value by –10% to +5%.
For a power supply device or an important building with AC power supply, the
voltage can deviate from the rated voltage value by –15% to +10%.
The AC frequency can vary in the range of +4% to –4%, and the sinusoidal
distortion rate of voltage waveform is smaller than or equal to 5%.
Equip a telecom office with an electricity generators set that is capable of
automatic power-on/off and supplement and employs standard interfaces and
protocols with the remote communication, control and measurement functions.
Power cables used for AC and DC power distribution shall comply with the
following specifications.
Communication AC neutrals are conductive and has the same cross section as
phase cables.
DC power feeders are chosen according to the long-term payload. If the cross
section exceeds 95 mm2, hard bus cables are used. If there is a great difference
between the recent and long-term payload, you can distribute cables by stages.
DC and AC conductive wires must be fire resistant. Route them and configure
the low-voltage power distribution room according to the local regulations.

1.5.2 Recommendations for AC Power Supply

You are recommended to:


Use voltage stabilizers in the following cases.
—When communications equipment are supplied with powered directly by the mains,
the power supply voltage varies from the rated voltage by –10% to +5%, or exceeds
the voltage threshold.
—When communications equipments are not supplied wit powered directly by the
mains, the mains voltage varies from the rated voltage by –15% to +10%, or exceeds
the AC input voltage range allowed for the DC power equipments.
To ensure continuous power supply, use UPS or inverters.
A telecom exchange is equipped with an electricity generators set to ensure
normal communication in case of mains failure. The capacity of the generator set

is at least 1.5 to 2 times of the total uninterrupted power supply needs of all
equipments.

1.5.3 Requirements for DC Power Supply

Place power equipments near telecom equipments to make DC feeders as short as


possible. To reduce power consumption and installation cost, the loop voltage drop
from the battery port to the equipment port shall be smaller than 3.2 V.
Use two or more independent power supply systems when the office has heavy traffic
or more than two switching systems.
For a large-scale office, configure a power supply system for each floor to supply
power to each equipment room. For a medium office, configure a centralized power
room or battery room, or separate power supply systems. For a small-scale office,
configure an integrated power supply system, but note to prevent corrosive gas
released by batteries from eroding circuit boards.

1.6.2 Mechanical Safety

I. High Voltage

Danger:
High voltage power is the drive for device running. However, never touch high voltage
power or mains directly or through damp objects; otherwise, it will cause fatal danger
to people.

Do as follows when operate in a high voltage environment.


AC power devices must be installed by the people with certifications on high
voltage and AC power operation according to the local safety rules strictly.
Do not wear any conductive stuff such as watches, bracelets and rings during
operation.
Power off the device once finding the cabinet has water or becomes moist.
Prevent water into the device when operating in humid environment.

Warning:
Nonstandard or improper high voltage operation will cause fire, electricity shock and
other accidents. Therefore, AC cables must be distributed by the people with
certifications on high voltage and AC power operation according to the local safety
rules strictly.

II. Power Cables

Caution:
Do not lay out or remove live power cables. The touch of live power cables with
conductors will cause electric sparks and arcs, and then lead to fire or hurt eyes.

Do as follows when operate power cables.


Turn off the power switch before laying out and remove power cables.

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

1-25
Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance

Check cable labels to make sure right cables are selected for layout.

III. Tools

Warning:
Use special tools for high voltage and AC power operation rather than ordinary tools.

IV. Drilling

Warning:
Do not drill the cabinet at will. Otherwise, it will destroy the cables in the cabinet, and
produce metal scraps that will cause circuit boards to short-circuit.

Do as follows when drilling the cabinet.


If really needing to drill the cabinet, wear insulating gloves and move cables in
the cabinet elsewhere first.
Prevent metal scraps from sputtering and hurt eyes.
Keep metal scraps from going into the cabinet.
Improper drilling degrades electromagnetic shield performance of the cabinet.
Clean metal scraps as soon as drilling ends.

V. Thunder Storm

Danger:
Never perform high voltage and AC operations or work at towers and masts in thunder
storms.

In the case of thunder rains, a strong electromagnetic field exists in the atmosphere.
To avoid the lighting attack on the device, ground the device before thunder rains
come.
For details about lightning proof ground, see 1.4.7 Lightning Proof Grounding.

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

1-26
Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance

VI. Electrostatics

Caution:
Human electrostatics will damage the components on circuit boards, such as large
scale IC.

People movements are the sources of electrostatics. In dry climates, a person can
carry up to 30 kV electrostatics. If such a person touches a component, the
component may be damaged.
Once electrostatic discharge may not damage components. Multiple times of
electrostatic discharge, however, may disable components. Therefore, electrostatic
damage has two types, recessive and dominant. Recessive damage cannot disable a
component immediately, but gradually. In the case of over high voltage and
temperature, recessive damage probably turns dominant, that is, components are
damaged completely.
You need to take the following ESD prevention measures:
To avoid damaging sensitive components such as boards, circuit boards or IC
chips due to electrostatics, put on an antistatic wrist strap and connect one end
of the wrist strap to ground properly before touching them.
Release electrostatics before touching boards or modules, that is, put on a
grounding antistatic wrist strap. Place a resistance over 1 Mohm between the
wrist and the grounding point to keep people from electricity shock. Over 1 Mohm
resistance is enough low for electrostatic discharge. Check antistatic wrist straps
periodically and do not replace the cables of the straps with other cables.
Separate electrostatic sensitive boards or modules and the objects carrying or
are prone to carry electrostatics. For example, the fraction between insulating
packing bags or transfer boxes and convey bands brings electrostatics to
components. If such components contact people or ground, electrostatics will be
discharged to damage the components.
The electrostatic sensitive boards or modules can touch high-quality discharge
materials only, such as antistatic packing bags. The boards and modules
sensitive to electrostatics must be wrapped in antistatic bags in storage and
transport.
Release electrostatics of measure devices before connecting them to boards or
modules. That is, ground the measure devices first.
Keep boards and modules at least 10 cm away from strong DC magnetic field, for
example, from cathode ray tubes of displays.

For details about antistatic, see 1.4.6 ESD Prevention.

VII. Power Lable

Caution:
Before connecting a cable, check the label on it to check if the right cable is selected.

VIII. Leakage Current

Warning:
Before powering on the device, ground it first.

Before powering on AC power supply system, connect the protection grounding


terminal on the device to ground to avoid current leakage from Y resistance of the
primary power supply and from the EMI filter-to-ground resistance on the device AC
input side.

IX. Incendive Environment

Danger:
Do not place the device in incendive or explosive gas or smog. Do not perform any
operation in such environment

In incendive environment, operating any electrical device will cause fatal danger.

1.6.3 Microwave and Magnetic Field

I. Introduction

Device antennae can produce electromagnetic radiation that is harmful for people.
Only the people who have accepted professional training can maintain the device
near antennae. The device radiation must comply with IEEE C95.1-1991 standards.

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

1-28
Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 1 Overview of Routine Maintenance

To work around antennae with full radiation frequency, read the following safety rules
first.

II. Definition and Classfication of Electromagnetic Environment

Electromagnetic environment is classified into controlled environment and


uncontrolled environment according to radiation intensity.
Controlled environment
Under controlled environment, people are aware of being exposed to electromagnetic
radiation, as well as the harm it will bring, but have to enter the magnetic field for work
or pass it accidentally. The radiation intensity in this case is larger than that in
uncontrolled environment, but smaller than the standard.
Uncontrolled environment
Under uncontrolled environment, people are not aware of being exposed to
electromagnetic radiation or have to stay in such environment (for example, due to
work or living needs). The radiation intensity in this case is smaller than that in
controlled environment, but smaller than the standard.

Figure 1-2 Minimum distance formula

The elements in the formula are described as follows.


rmin is the minimum safe distance, measured in m.
N is the number of frequencies.
Pout is the output power of frequency, measured in W.
L is the frequency loss to an antenna, measured in dB.
G is antenna gain, measured in dB.
W is the maximum power density allowed, measured in W/m2.
In uncontrolled environment, the maximum power density is equal to f/150, where f
represents frequency (MHz), and the test value is the average value obtained after at
least 30 m test. In controlled environment, the maximum power density is equal to f/30,
where f represents frequency (MHz), and the test value is the average value obtained
after at least 6 m test.

3.1 Guide for Grounding System Maintenance


3.1.1 Checking Grounding System

A well functioning grounding system is quite essential for stable running of the
UMG8900 as it helps to guarantee personal security and avoid electrostatic
interference, electromagnetic interference and lightning attack. It is recommended to
check and maintain the grounding system once one month.

I. Definitions of Grounding System

For the UMG8900, GND, PGND and BGND share one grounding body, and ground
cables of all cabinets are jointed to one entity named equipotential system. According
to position, the ground cables of the UMG8900 are divided into several types, as shown
in Table 3-1.

Table 3-1 UMG8900 ground cable types

Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 3 Guide for Key Maintenance

II. Checking and Maintaining Grounding System

Check and maintain the grounding system as follows.


1) Check if all ground cables inside a cabinet are broken, aged, eroded or burnt by
arc.
2) Check if all grounding terminals and captive screws of ground cables are loosely
fixed or eroded.
3) Check grounding conditions of all cabinet components with a multimeter. Turn the
multimeter to the resistance phase, connect a probe to a grounding point (the
cable between them can be extended if necessary), and connect the other probe
to other grounding points one by one. The resistance of each grounding point shall
be 1 ohm or so. If one grounding point has resistance much bigger than 1 ohm,
you need to check ground cables, connecting terminals and captive screws of this
grounding point as soon as possible, and take some measures.
4) Measure grounding resistance of the grounding network with a ground resistance
meter, which shall be no more than 1 ohm. For how to measure grounding
resistance, see “3.1.2 Measuring Grounding Resistance”.

III. Definitions of PGND, BGND and GND

PGND: protection grounding of the metal surface of cabinets and devices inside the
cabinets.
BGND: grounding of the DC power supply of a cabinet. In most cases, the positive pole
of –48 V DC power is grounded near the power cabinet.
GND: grounding of functional circuits of cabinet devices. It is a general term for digital
and analog grounding of boards and backplanes.

3.1.2 Measuring Grounding Resistance

I. Measurement Steps

Ground resistance meters are recommended to measure the grounding network of an


equipment room. The voltage pole and current pole of a ground resistance meter are
shown in Figure 3-1.

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

3-2
Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 3 Guide for Key Maintenance

Grounding network Measure point

Voltage Current
pole pole
d2

d1

Figure 3-1 Voltage and current poles of a ground resistance meter

The distance between the current pole and the grounding network edge is labeled as
d1, which is generally four or five times of the grounding network diagonal D in order to
generate a flat potential distribution section. The distance between the voltage pole and
the grounding network edge is labeled as d2, which is generally 50% to 60% of d1.
You can Move the voltage pole along the line between the grounding network and the
current pole three times, with the distance of about 5% of d1 each time. If the three
resistance values are close, the grounding network resistance is their average value.
If it is hard to make d1 4D or 5D long, you can make d1 2D long and d2 1D long in the
area with even soil resistance, and 3D and 1.7D long respectively in the area with
uneven soil resistance.

II. Notes

When measure grounding resistance, note that:


Make the current pole and voltage pole in the vertical direction of lines and
underlying metal channels.
Do not measure grounding resistance shortly after rain.

3.2 Guide for Device Dust Cleaning


3.2.1 Cleaning Air Filter Frame

An air filter frame is located at the bottom of an N68-22 cabinet, used to filter dusts and
thus provide straight way for heat dissipation and ventilation. When an air filter frame
absorbs a great amount of dust, it will degrade ventilation and heat dissipation
performance and even threaten normal running of the device.
Therefore, it is recommended to clean air filter frames once every month. The steps are
described as follows.

I. Taking out Air Filter Frame

Follow these steps to take the air filter frame.

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

3-3
Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 3 Guide for Key Maintenance

1) Open the front panel of an N68-22 cabinet, use a cross screwdriver to remove the
two screws at the lower side pole close to the front panel, which are used to fix the
air filter frame.
2) Hold the air filter frame panel upwards until it is beyond the screws fixing ground
cables at the cabinet bottom.
3) Pull the air filter frame slightly until it gets out of the cabinet.

II. Cleaning Air Filter Frame

Clean the air filter frame with water, wipe water from it, and dry it in breezy place.

Caution:

Do not insert a wet air filter frame into a cabinet. Otherwise, water drops may go into the
cabinet with air and cause short circuits to the device.

III. Installing Air Filter Frame

Follow these steps to install the air filter frame:


1) Push the dry air filter frame into the cabinet bottom along the guide rail slightly
rather than forcefully.
2) When in position, screw the air filter frame into the side pole in the cabinet with
cross screwdrivers.

3.2.2 Cleaning Air Filter Yarn Net

An air filter yarn net is located on the inside front panel of an N68-22 cabinet, used to
filter dusts and thus provide straight way for heat dissipation and ventilation When an
air filter yarn net absorbs a great amount of dust, it will degrade ventilation and heat
dissipation performance and even threaten normal running of the device.
Therefore, it is recommended to clean air filter yarn nets once every month. The steps
are described as follows.

I. Taking out Air Filter Yarn Net

Follow these steps to take out the air filter yarn net.
1) Open the front panel of an N68-22 cabinet, and then you will find a black yarn net
(air filter yarn net) attached to the upper panel.
2) Climb up a ladder, and tear the net away the panel.

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 3 Guide for Key Maintenance

II. Cleaning Air Filter Yarn Net

Follow these steps to clean the air filter yarn net.


1) Clean the place where the air filter yarn net is attached with neat and dry cotton
yarn.
2) Clean the air filter yarn net with water, then dehydrate it with a spin-drier, and
finally dry it in a ventilated place.

Caution:

Do not attach a wet air filter yarn net to a cabinet. Otherwise, water drops may go into
the cabinet with air and cause short circuits to the device.

III. Attaching Air Filter Yarn Net

Climb up a ladder, and adhere the clean and dry air filter yarn net to the original place.

3.2.3 Cleaning Dust from Fan Frame

A fan frame is located at the bottom of a service frame, working as a driver for
ventilation and air intake for the service frame. The impellers and control circuit boards
in a fan frame absorbs dust during running. A thick layer of dust will not only affect the
fan frame running, but also deteriorate the cabinet environment, and thus threaten
stable running of the device.
Therefore, it is recommended to clean dust for fan frames once every year. The steps
are described as follows.

I. Cleaning Dust from Spare Fan Frame

Remove dust from impellers and control circuit boards of a fan frame with clean cotton
yarn, antistatic soft brushes or vacuum cleaners.

II. Replacing Fan Frame

Follow these steps to replace the fan frame.


1) Open the front panel of an N68-22 cabinet, and remove the two screws fixing the
fan frame with a cross screwdriver.
2) Draw the fan frame slightly until getting it out of the service frame.
3) Install the spare fan frame to the service frame as soon as possible, and screw it
into the side pole in the service frame.

Caution:

Complete the replacement within five minutes. Otherwise, it will cause the service
frame unable to operate securely.

III. Cleaning Dust from Replaced Fan Frame

Use clean cotton yarn, antistatic soft brushes or vacuum cleaners to remove dust from
impellers and control circuit boards of a fan frame.

IV. Continuing with Other Fan Frames

Follow the above steps II and III to deal with other fan frames.

3.2.4 Cleaning Dust from Air Deflector

In an N68-22 cabinet, all service frames are equipped with air deflectors except the one
at the cabinet bottom. The air deflector is to create an unblocked ventilation and air
intake channel for its service frame. The air deflector absorbs dust during running. A
thick layer of dust will not only affect the air deflector running, but also deteriorate the
cabinet environment, and thus threaten stable running of the device.
It is recommended to fan frames once every year. The steps are described as follows.

I. Taking out Air Deflector

Follow these steps to take out the air deflector.


1) Open the front panel of an N68-22 cabinet, and remove the four screws fixing the
air deflector with a cross screwdriver.
2) Draw the air deflector slightly out of the cabinet.

II. Cleaning Dust from Air Deflector

Clean dust from the air deflector completely with clean cotton yarn, antistatic soft
brushes or vacuum cleaners.

III. Installing Air Deflector

Install the clean air deflector to the cabinet, and screw it to the side pole in the cabinet
with a cross screwdriver.

3.2.5 Cleaning Dust from Boards

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

3-6
Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 3 Guide for Key Maintenance

Caution:

As removing boards may greatly affect service running, you are strongly recommended
to clean dust from boards at night with low traffic volume, for example, between 2:00
and 4:00 a.m.

During the device running, boards keep on absorbing dust due to cross ventilation in
the heat dissipation process. In an environment with worse air cleanness and lower
humidity, more dust is absorbed. A certain amount of dust accumulated will lower heat
dissipation efficiency of boards, thus threatening stable running of the device.
Therefore, it is recommended to clean dust for all boards once every two years. The
steps are described as follows.

I. Preparing Spare Boards

To clean dust for boards, you need to remove them from the cabinet. So the first step is
to prepare spare boards. Suppose the boards layout of a service frame is shown in
Figure 3-2.

Figure 3-2 Boards layout of a service frame

The spare boards you need to prepare are MCLK, MPPB, MTCB, MCMB, MTNU,
MNET, MOMU, MTNU, ME32, S2LM and MSPF.

II. Replacing Boards

When a board is taken out, you cannot clean dust from it until the spare one is in
position and runs normally. Board replacement must follow the procedures described in
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Maintenance Manual – Parts
Replacement.

Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 3 Guide for Key Maintenance

III. Cleaning Dust from Boards

There are many dust cleaning methods. No matter which one is used, you do not
damage physical and electrical characteristics of boards. Two methods are described
as follows.
With vacuum cleaner
Brush dust from board surface with a clean, dry antistatic soft brush while aligning the
dust intake of a vacuum cleaner with the brush. In this case, dust is absorbed as soon
as being brushed off.
This method features simple operation and low cost. However, it is hard to remove all
dust completely such as harmful gas adsorbed on boards surface.
With detergent
Use dedicated anhydrous, erosion-free, non-conductive and highly volatile detergent to
remove dust from boards, such as Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA).
This method is able to remove dust completely, even those harmful gases adsorbed on
boards surface. However, it features complicated operation and high cost.

Warning:

Take antistatic measures in the whole operation process. For example, you have to
operate at an antistatic table, wear antistatic clothes and wrist straps.
Choose the detergent that meets the rated national regulations. Unqualified detergent
will damage boards.

IV. Re-Use Spare Boards

Due to the amount limits of spare boards, it is impossible to replace all boards with
spare boards at one time. When a spare board is replaced by the board that has been
cleaned, you can re-use the spare board for other boards.

3.2.6 Cleaning Dust from Optical Interfaces and Connectors

The A4L, P4L, P1H and E1G accommodate optical interfaces, which are connected to
the connectors on tail fibers. After a period of device running, you need to clean dust
from optical interfaces on boards and connectors on tail fibers.

I. Notes on Laser Protection

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

3-8
Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 3 Guide for Key Maintenance

Warning:

The optical interfaces produce sightless infrared laser, which can cause permanent
injury to eyes.

When operating optical interfaces on boards and connectors on tail fibers, you are
recommended to wear infrared filter glasses to prevent eyes from hurt by sightless
infrared. If not wearing such glasses, do not aim eyes at optical interfaces connectors.

II. Capping Optical Interfaces and Connectors

Cover the free optical interfaces on boards and connectors on tail fibers with protective
caps. When pulling out tail fiber from an optical interface, cap the interface and the
connector on the tail fiber.
Capping them is able to:
Prevent laser from hurting eyes;
Prevent dust from dropping onto optical interfaces and connectors.

III. Cleaning Optical Interfaces and Connectors

Follow these steps to clean optical interfaces and connectors.


1) Pull out an interface board.
To pull out an interface board, remove the fibers inserted to the boards first.
It is recommended to pull out interface boards under the guide of Huawei technical
engineers to avoid damaging boards.
2) Clean with dedicated tools and materials
Use dedicated tools and materials to clean optical interfaces and connectors. You can
purchase the tools and materials from fiber suppliers.
For large-power optical interfaces and connectors, you have to use dedicated tools and
materials to clean them at any time. For small-power optical interfaces and connectors,
you can use clean, dry antistatic brushes if unable to obtain dedicated tools and
materials.

Warning:

Do not the cleaning tools or materials that are not proved qualified to clean optical
connectors and interfaces.

Huawei Technologies Proprietary

3-9
Maintenance Manual - Routine Maintenance
HUAWEI UMG8900 Universal Media Gateway Chapter 3 Guide for Key Maintenance

Usage of unqualified cleaning tools or materials will damage optical connectors and
interfaces.

Do not exchange optical interface boards at will as it mismatches the configuration.

IV. Notes on Loopback Test of Optical Interfaces

Add an attenuator when conducting loopback test on optical interfaces to prevent too
high optical power received from overload or even damage optical modules.
