VIRTUAL indicates a virtual cabinet. It can be an object in physical entity modeling, for example, a legacy
cabinet or a cabinet type not included in the existing cabinet types. It can also be an object when there is
no physical entity, for example, when a base station is installed in an open rack.

2.1.2 Cabinet Numbering Rules
Cabinet numbers range from 0 to 62, and cabinets where BBUs reside must be numbered 0 to
7. Otherwise, software cannot work properly. Table 2-2, Table 2-3, Table 2-4, Table 2-5 and
Table 2-6 describe how cabinets are numbered.

2.2.2 Subrack Numbering Rules
Entity subracks, such as BBU3900 subracks and RFU subracks, depend on cabinet types.
Extension subracks house optional peripherals, such as EMUs and GPS receivers. To ensure
subrack number consistency and scalability, a peripheral can occupy an extension subrack
independently.
Subrack numbers range from 0 to 254. Numbers of entity subracks cannot be changed. Numbers
of extension subracks can be defined by users. Table 2-8 and Table 2-9 describe how subracks
are numbered.

RRU 60 to 254 Entity subrack You are advised to comply with the
following rules when configuring
RRU subrack numbers:
l The RRU subrack numbers for
the same project must consistent
with each other.
l If a multimode RRU needs to be
configured in multiple modes, it
must be configured with the same
subrack number. Otherwise an
alarm is generated, indicating the
configuration conflict.
l The RRU subrack numbers are
numbered starting from the
lowest band that the RRUs
support. Some subrack numbers
need to be reserved for capacity
expansion. For example, in a
network using the RRU3926 of
900 MHz, RRU3929 of 1800
MHz, and RRU3806 of 2100
MHz, the subrack numbers are
assigned as follows: 60 to 69 are
assigned to the RRU3926s of 900
MHz, 70 to 79 are assigned to the
RRU3929s of 1800 MHz, and 80
to 89 are assigned to the
RRU3806s of 2100 MHz.

NOTE
BBU board in a BTS supports automatic or manual configuration. If a BBU board supports automatic
configuration, the configuration of the board automatically takes effect when the configuration of the
cabinet housing the board takes effect. If a BBU board supports manual configuration, the configuration
of the board takes effect only after the board is manually configured. In a BBU of a BTS, the GTMU, FAN,
and UPEU support automatic configuration, whereas other boards require manual configuration.
All boards installed in a BBU must be configured.
For more details about the BBU board configuration, see BBU3900 Hardware Description.
2.4 Typical Cabinet and Subrack Configurations for 3900
Series Base Stations
The configuration rules in this section apply to GBTSs, eGBTSs, NodeBs, eNodeBs, and co-
MPT base stations.
In multimode base stations, the configuration rules for cabinets, subracks, and common boards
in a BBU subrack are as follows:
SingleRAN
16

l The primary mode in a multimode base station is listed in descending order of priority:
GSM, UMTS, and LTE.
l All cabinets and the following subracks must be configured in primary mode: BBU, primary
mode-dedicated RF, PMU, EMU, TCU, CCU, and FMU. Only BBU subracks containing
the main control boards for secondary modes, secondary mode-dedicated RF subracks, and
cabinets housing these subracks need to be configured in secondary modes.
l Cabinets and subracks configured in both primary and secondary modes must have
consistent cabinet and subrack numbers. Otherwise, parameter configuration conflict
alarms will be generated.
l In a BBU subrack, the UPEU, UEIU, and FAN can be configured in two modes, the UCIU
and UTRPc can be configured only in one mode, and the USCU can be configured in either
one mode or two modes.
Table 2-11 lists the typical subrack configuration for 3900 series base stations.

Modifying the Baseband Board Configuration
Run the MOD BBP command to modify the baseband board configuration.
Pay attention to the following when modifying the LBBP configuration:
l Before modifying the working mode of the LBBP for the existing activated cell, ensure
that the eNodeB supports the modified working mode and that there are sufficient idle
resources (see the cell specifications of the LBBP). Otherwise, the cell cannot be activated.
l LBBPs in FDD mode support 1T1R, 1T2R, 2T2R, 2T4R, and 4T4R FDD cells.
l LBBPs in TDD mode support 1T1R, 2T2R, 4T4R, and 8T8R TDD cells.
l If an RRU chain/ring in load sharing mode is configured on LBBPs and the chain head and
tail belong to different LBBPs, the working mode of the LBBP cannot be modified.
l If the RRU/RFU cannot set up links or work at the maximum line rate after the LBBP is
blocked/unblocked, run the STR CPRILBRNEG command to manually initiate
negotiation.
l To block or unblock the LBBP, change the value of the ADMSTATE parameter in the
BLK BRD or UBL BRD command, respectively. After the board is blocked, ALM-26210
Board Blocked will be reported and the board will not provide services. After the board is
unblocked, the alarm will be cleared.

Deleting BBU Boards from eGBTSs, NodeBs, eNodeBs, or Co-MPT Base Stations
Run the RMV BRD command to delete a BBU board from eGBTSs, NodeBs, eNodeBs, or Co-
MPT base stations. Table 5-12 describes the related parameters.
l Deleting a board causes a board reset.
l After a board is deleted, services on the board are interrupted.
l If a WBBP/LBBP has been configured with an RRU chain, it cannot be deleted. If you
want to delete the WBBP/LBBP, delete the RRU chain configuration first and then delete
the WBBP/LBBP.
l If a board has been configured with a subboard, the subboard is deleted when the board is
deleted.

5.4 BBU Board Maintenance
5.4.1 Resetting BBU Boards
When resetting BBU boards, pay attention to the following points:
l In dual-mode scenarios, you can reset common devices at the peer end. Resetting common
devices at the peer end interrupts services on the common devices.
l In multi-mode base stations, resetting the GTMU, UMPT, WMPT, LMPT, and UTRP may
interrupt services on base stations of other modes.
Resetting GBTS BBU Boards
Run the RST BTSBRD command to reset a specified BTS BBU board.
Reset using this command consists of soft reset and power-off reset, which are specified by
corresponding parameters. If power-off reset is selected for a multi-mode base station, boards
in the BBUs of other modes are reset.
The boards that support soft reset are as follows: Ordinary boards
The boards that support power-off reset are as follows:
l GTMU
l UBRI
SingleRAN
44

Resetting BBU Boards in Soft Reset Mode in GBTSs, NodeBs, eNodeBs, or Co-MPT
Base Stations
If a board has a fault that cannot be rectified, soft reset is required. Soft reset takes a relatively
short time.
Run the RST BRD command to perform a soft reset.
NOTE
USCU, FAN, UPEU, and UEIU do not support soft reset.
After the RST BRD command is executed, the BBU Board Maintenance Link Failure alarm and
the Board Startup event alarm are generated. Run the DSP BRD command to check the values
of AvailabilityStatus and OpState. If the value of AvailabilityStatus is Normal and the value
of OpState is Enabled, the board has started up properly and the fault has been rectified.
Resetting NodeB/eNodeB BBU Boards in Power-off Reset Mode
If soft reset fails, power-off reset is required. Power-off reset takes a relatively long time.
Run the RST BRDPWROFF command to perform a power-off reset.
NOTE
USCU, FAN, UPEU, and UEIU do not support power-off reset.
After the RST BRDPWROFF command is executed, the BBU Board Maintenance Link Failure
alarm and the Board Startup event alarm are generated. Run the DSP BRD command to check
the values of AvailabilityStatus and OpState. If the value of AvailabilityStatus is Normal and
the value of OpState is Enabled, the board has started up properly and the fault has been rectified.
5.4.2 Querying BBU Board Information
Querying GBTS Board Information
Run the DSP BTSBRD command to query the running status of a GBTS board.
Querying Board Information in eGBTSs, NodeBs, eNodeBs, or Co-MPT Base
Stations
Step 1 Run the DSP BRD command to query the running status of a board in eGBTSs, NodeBs,
eNodeBs, or Co-MPT base stations.
Step 2 Run the DSP BRDMFRINFO command to query the manufacturing information about a board
in eGBTSs, NodeBs, eNodeBs, or Co-MPT base stations.
