the Telkom Mobile RAN Cabinet. All materials required and specified in SPEC-0325 shall be
provided by the service provider as part of the end –to-end solution.
b) In using this installation guide, the service provider and its sub-contractors shall comply with the
requirements stipulated for all parts of the civil project undertaken at the site. Huawei shall
through the relevant Telkom Mobile Property Management arrange and comply with all
statutory requirements of site work such as, but not limited to: way leaves, servitudes, work plans
etc.
c) The Huawei appointed sub-contractor shall prepare the additional materials required for the
installation of the RAN site according to the Technical Site Survey Report.
d) A plinth of the dimension stated in the TSSR for the relevant cabinet as per the site summary,
shall be prepared and installed in an industry approved manner and according to the
SPEC-0325.
e) All duct and pipe work shall be installed and fixed firmly in position (when required) according to
requirements of the plinth prior to the area been boxed and made ready for casting. NB.
Overhead installations where the feeder cables does not go underground do not require
underground installation of conduit for such purposes (this is determined by the technical site
survey)
f) The area to be used for the plinth shall be leveled, excavated (if required) and compacted, to
the correct compaction level. As required according to the DCP levels in the Telkom Spec and
according to the requirements of the plinth dimension, prior to the installation of the boxing.
g) The plinth dimension shall then be firmly boxed and the re-enforcing mesh installed as per
dimensional requirements of the plinth.
h) The preferred method to install the mounting bolts is as follows:

Distribution 26,
Total150
i. Galvanized threaded mounting down bolts (M16) shall be inserted at exactly the correct
positions as per defined cabinet on six positions and held in place with a removable position jig
(a jig shall be used to ensure that the correct mounting positions are maintained at all times
during plinth construction).
ii. An alternative and less preferred method is to install the fixed mounting bolts using chemical
anchor installation method once the cabinet plinth is cast and in has cured to minimum
requirements.
i) Maximum use must be made of ready-mixed concrete, with strength of 25 Mpa after 28 days,
supplied by a reputable concrete supplier and delivered in agitator trucks. Whichever method of
mixing is used, the total delivered period must not exceed 3 hours.(See SANS 878 /SABS 878).
The Local Mixing Machine method can be adopted, with the RAN installation manager’s
approval, if ready mixed concrete is not available or the terrain is inaccessible for agitator
trucks.
j) Whilst pouring / placing the concrete, ensure even spread and proper flow of the concrete by
using vibrators or suitable rods/sticks to facilitate proper flow and filling to ensure no air-pockets
or holes are caused or appears in the walls or other parts of the plinth.
k) Where project timelines do not permit the required curing time of the concrete plinth, alternative
curing practices may be sought and implemented using civil engineered practices. These
practices may not be implemented if not approved and signed off by a registered civil engineer.
All practices must be guaranteed to provide the correct strength and grade of installation.
Alternative practice would be to deploy a precast plinth.
l) Once the concrete has set then the installation jig may be removed and the plinth neatened
and made ready for the installation of the cabinet (removal of excess cement and runoff)
m) The approved layout for the plinth is noted in Figures 11 and 12 for ARP cabinets and Figures
13 and 14 for CK cabinets.

15.412.4 DC Panel Labels
a) The DC Power Distribution panel accommodates all the circuit breakers for the different
equipment in the outdoor cabinet. The panel accommodates labeling provider by the supplier
of the distribution panel. This labeling identifies the DC power termination of the Node-B as
“DBS” and the BTS as “BTS”. The circuit breakers on the power distribution panel must also be
labeled in accordance with the Telkom power labeling specification. The circuit breakers must
be labeled from left to right starting with the first circuit breaker as “A1”.
b) The circuit breaker labeling must be done with 9mm Yellow Brother tape with Black font. All
characters must be capital letters. The largest font setting as available on the specific Brother
machine must be used on the label. The Brother Tape label must be placed underneath each
specific circuit breaker on the front cover.

15.512.5 Power Cable Labels
a) The BTS and Node-B are powered by means of a -48V DC feed. The physical power feed at
the BTS and Node-B equipment must be labeled with Brother Tape. The Brother tape label
may be placed on the DC power cable in any of the following two ways:
b) Wrapped around the cable in the same way as with the other cable labeling. The label is
wrapped around the cable in the “flag” method. The same information must be indicated on the
front as well as the back of the Brother Tape label.
c) Be placed on the DC power cable and covered with transparent heat shrink.
d) The Brother Tape label must indicate the specific circuit breaker on the power
distribution panel feeding the specific equipment. The top row of the label must indicate the
power distribution panel manufacturer specific circuit breaker labeling. “BTS” for the BTS 2G
equipment and “DBS” for the Node-B equipment. The bottom row of the label must indicate
“CB” for circuit breaker and then the specific Telkom standard identifier for the specific circuit
breaker, example CB A7. The label must be placed on the blue copper power cable close
to the termination of the power cable on the BTS equipment. The Following Figure indicates
the label on the blue cable and the position of the label.
