Overview of NR8961
This chapter gives an overview of the ZXMW NR8961 (NR8961), one of the
ZTE’s next generation NR8000 portfolios, an all outdoor split-type digital
microwave transmission system.
NR8961 is an IP-based all outdoor microwave radio, which widely used for 3G,
4G LTE and even 5G IP backhaul network with the highlight of zero-footprint.
ZXMW NR8961 system includes Outdoor Baseband Unit (OBU) and Outdoor RF
Unit (ODU). OBU and ODU work coordinately in various scenarios. Figure 1-1
shows the appearance of NR8961 system. Compare to the traditional split system,
all outdoor solution can save site rental fee (OPEX) for operators thus improving
total TCO and ROI. The transmission capacity of NR8961 can reach up to 1.22 Gbps
per carrier @ 112 MHz and 2048 QAM high modulation. It also supports built-in
Wi-Fi module, IP routing, MPLS and 10GE interface; hardware is prepared for SDN.

Protective Grounding Cable
The protective grounding cable connects the grounding point of the ZXMW
NR8961 to a tower or an outdoor grounding busbar to ensure that the equipment
can operate properly.
The protective ground cable is a 16 mm2 yellow-green copper-core
conductor. For its external view, see picture as below.

Optical Fiber
The optical fiber connects the Ethernet optical interface of the ZXMW
NR8961 to an optical switching device.
One end of the optical fiber is a waterproof optical interface (connected to
the ZXMW NR8961) while the other end is an LC-type optical interface.

Ethernet Cable
The Ethernet cable is an outdoor CAT 5E cable, used to connect the ZXMW NR8961 to
an Ethernet device or PoE power supply device.
In accordance with the corresponding relationship between pins, the Ethernet cable is
categorized into two types: straight-through Ethernet cable and cross-connect Ethernet
cable.
Both ends of the Ethernet cable are RJ45 connectors, and the end connected to an
outdoor device is equipped with a waterproof sheath, see picture as below.

IF Cable
The cable connects the OBU to IF ODU is used to transmit IF signals and O&M
management signals and provide power supply to the ODU. There are two
types of IF cables: equipment interconnection jumpers and IF RF adapter
jumpers.
The equipment interconnection jumper is used to interconnect the OBU to
ODU in the case of the OBU and ODU are installed in an integrated manner.
The jumper specification is N-J//RG223//N-J, and the jumper length is 0.5 m,
see picture as below.

Accessory Equipment
PSE
In the PoE power supply scenario, PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment) is used to
provide power for the ZXMW NR8961. The PSE equipment manages the whole
process of the PoE Ethernet power supply. The PSE device model is ZXSDR POE
A01/A02. The external view is shown in picture as below.
