6.2 LTE947: FSMF Flexi Multiradio 10 System Module

Introduction to the feature
Flexi Multiradio BTS System Module FSMF is a highly integrated 3U high outdoor
System Module of the Flexi Multiradio BTS. It hosts the telecom control, system opera-
tion and maintenance, baseband application, transmission, and power distribution func-
tionality. The System Module can be also equipped with optional capacity extension
sub-modules which bring additional signal processing power and/or allow the system to
support different radio access technology. Adding the capacity sub-modules in the field
does not affect ongoing traffic.
The System Module can also act as a System Extension Module operating in a
baseband extension mode. Flexi Multiradio BTS architecture supports chaining up to
nine System Modules enabling to build very high capacity sites and different redundancy
solutions.
Flexi Multiradio System Module hardware supports the following software operating
modes:
• GSM/EDGE mode
• WCDMA mode
• LTE in FDD and TDD mode

6.2.1 Benefits
End-user benefits
This feature does not affect the end-user experience.

Operator benefits
The FSMF is a successor of the FSMD and FSME System Modules providing enhanced
capacity, connectivity and expansion possibilities in the same from factor. FSMF is IP
ingress protected and operates at the temperature range from -35 to + 55 °C.

6.3.3 Functional description

Functional overview
Optional integrated FPFD outdoor sub-module is a size optimized power distribution unit
(PDU). It is located at the top left of the outdoor Flexi Multiradio system module.
It can be used for stacked configuration and feederless configuration the same way as
earlier Flexi integrated Power distribution units. In feederless configuration FPFD can be
used with optional Over Voltage Protection units (OVP with FSEC or FSES).
It can be installed together with new Flexi System Module in one 3U casing. FPFD
Power distribution sub-module provides four external -48 V DC outlets for Flexi Modules
(RF Module, RRH, or external System Module) or any standard 48 V DC device at site
and one internal DC output to System Module itself.
The FPFD has integrated basic Over Voltage Protection (OVP Type approval level with
2kV/1kV), EMC filtering and reverse polarity protection.
