protection zone concepts system

Our decades of know-how in lightning protection
and intensive research activities are key factors for utility (230/400 V)
designing lightning protection systems for cell sites.
The primary aim is to prevent lightning damage to an- base station (radio base station)
tennas, remote radio heads, base stations and power
supply systems.

Lightning protection zone concepts for mobile radio stations unit
optical fibre
(or transceiver systems) are based on IEC 62305. This inter-
cable
national standard defines the selection and arrangement

of lightning and surge protection measures. It also requires
system operators to perform a risk analysis when installing
a new mobile radio system.
Most of the ground-mounted and roof-mounted mobile baseband
48 V d.c.
radio stations are designed according to class of LPS III, unit (BBU)
feeder cable
depending on the risk potential and the acceptable risk
of damage. Stations with an increased risk potential are
designed according to class of LPS II or higher. mast
