l If the areas where RF radiation exceeds the stipulated value are accessible to workers,ensure that workers know where these areas are. They can shut down the transmitters beforeentering these areas. Such areas may not exist; but if they exist, the areas must be within arange of less than 10 m around the antennas.
l Each forbidden zone should be indicated by a physical barrier and striking sign to warn thepublic or workers.
Laser
CAUTIONWhen handling optical fibers, do not stand close to, or look into the optical fiber outlet withunaided eyes.
Laser transceivers or transmitters are used in the optical transmission system and associated testtools. Because the laser that is transmitted through the optical fiber produces a small beam oflight, it has a very high power density and is invisible to human eyes. If a beam of light entersthe eye, the retina may be damaged.
Normally, staring into the end of an unterminated optical fiber or broken optical fiber with theunaided eyes from a distance of more than 150 mm [5.91 in.] will not cause eye injury. Eyesmay, however, be damaged if an optical tool such as a microscope, magnifying glass or eyeloupe is used to stare into the bare optical fiber end.
Read the following guidelines to prevent laser radiation:
l Only the trained and authorized personnel can perform the operation.
l Wear a pair of eye-protective glasses when you are handling lasers or optical fibers.
l Ensure that the optical source is switched off before disconnecting optical fiber connectors.
l Never look into the end of an exposed optical fiber or an open connector if you cannotensure that the optical source is switched off.
l To ensure that the optical source is switched off, use an optical power meter.
l Before opening the front door of an optical transmission system, ensure that you are notexposed to laser radiation.
l Never use an optical tool such as a microscope, a magnifying glass, or an eye loupe to lookinto the optical fiber connector or end.
Read the following instructions before handling optical fibers:
l Only the trained personnel can cut and splice optical fibers.
l Before cutting or splicing an optical fiber, ensure that the optical fiber is disconnected fromthe optical source. After disconnecting the optical fiber, use protecting caps to protect allthe optical connectors.

l The required tools and materials such as ESD wrist strap/ESD gloves and ESD box/ESDbag are kept ready.
ContextThe optical module can be installed in the CPRI0-CPRI5 ports on the GTMU.
The optical module is hot swappable.
It takes about five minutes to replace the optical module of the BBU. The duration of thereplacement involves the removal of the optical cable and the faulty optical module, theinstallation of the new optical module, the connection of the optical cable to the optical module,and the time elapsed for the restoration of the CPRI links.
CAUTIONl You must take proper ESD prevention measures, for example, wear an ESD wrist strap or
a pair of ESD gloves to prevent the boards, modules, or electrical components from beingdamaged by static electricity generated by your body.
l Do not look into the optical module after removing the optical cable from the opticalmodule.
Procedure
Step 1 Press the bulge on the optical cable connector, and then remove the connector from the faultyoptical module.
Step 2 Turn the puller on the faulty optical module outwards, and then pull out the optical module fromthe slot and so from the BBU.
Step 3 Install the new optical module into the BBU.
Step 4 Remove the dustproof caps from the optical connector and from the optical module, and theninsert the connector into the new module.
Step 5 On the Board Management window of the Site Maintenance Terminal System, double-clickthe GTMU. On the displayed Topology Management window, check whether the transmissionof CPRI signals is resumed by viewing the status of the RRU to which the replaced optical cableis connected, as shown in Figure 3-13.
