Installing the Base Station Equipment
BreezeMAX Modular Base Station System Manual

Example:
A full 2.x GHz Base Station operating with DL-UL ratio of 60-40, with regular 
PIU(s), 6 AU-IDUs, 24 ODUs (8 ODUs are powered via the AU-IDUs, 16 ODUs are 
powered by 4 Power Feeders), a GPS Adapter and an Outdoor GPS Receiver.
Power Consumption of the Base Station, including GPS Adapter and Outdoor GPS 
Receiver, excluding the ODUs: 16(PIU) + [65(NPU) + 1.2(GPS Adapter) +6(Outdoor 
GPS Receiver) +24(AVU) +6*46(IDU)] / 0.8(PSU Efficiency)=481W.
Excluding the PIU(s), the total power that should be supplied by PSUs is 465W. 
Since each PSU can support a maximum of 200W, we need at least 3 PSUs. A 
fourth PSU will support a 3+1 redundancy.
When calculating the power requirements associated with the ODUs, we should 
distinguish between the peak power consumption (maximum current) and the 
average power consumption (taking into account Tx/Rx ratio) that affect the 
requirements from a backup power source.
For a 2.x GHz system, the peak power consumption of the 24 ODUs, including the 
power required for Power Feeders (20 channels), is 24*89 + 16*2 = 2168W. Thus, 
the total peak power of the system under worst conditions is 481 + 2168 = 2649W.
The average power consumption of the 24 ODUs, assuming DL-UL (Tx/Rx) ratio of 
60-40, is 24*(89*0.60 + 15*0.40) + 16*2 = 1459W. Thus, the average power 
consumption of the system under worst case conditions is 481 + 1459 = 1940W.

HOT SWAP Support
The NPU, AU-IDU and PIU modules includes a blue HOT SWAP LED and a 
micro-switch in the injector/ejector handle to support hot-swap control. After 
releasing the ejector's button, the HOT SWAP LED should turn on, indicating that 
power to/from the back-panel is disconnected and the module can be removed 
safely. For more details refer to 
2.2.5
Power Interface Unit (PIU)
The single Euro PIU module is the interface between the Base Station site's DC 
power source and the Base Station Chassis Power Supply Units and external 
ODUs, which receive power via the IDUs. 
The PIU filters and stabilizes the Base Station input power and protects the 
system from power problems such as over voltage, surge pulses, reverse polarity 
connection and short circuits. It also filters high frequency interference (radiated 
emissions) and low frequency interference (conducted emissions) to the external 
power source. Each Base Station chassis contains two slots for an optional 1+1
