 h2. Connectors 

 

 h3. PWR 

 48V DC connector.    The negative rail is towards the edge of the unit.    Also seems to power up fine at 36V 

 The connectory type is https://www.te.com/usa-en/product-1982299-3.html with associated crimp contacts.

 h3. EC (RJ45) 

 Environment Control? Probably some RS-485 to control fans, power management, UPS, ... 

 h3. AUX (RJ45) 

 ? 

 

 h3. LMT A (RJ45) 

 A RS-232 on RJ45 for Local Maintenane use.    IT provides access to COLI (COmmand LIne). 

 The pinout is shown below.    Please note it is *different from RBS3000!*, but identical to that of the [[DUG 20]] 

 |_.RJ45|_.DB9|_.Name| 
 |1|5|GND| 
 |2|3|TXD (of PC)| 
 |3|2|RXD (of PC)| 

 The [default?] baud rate settings are 9600 8N1. 

 This port provides RS-232 access to the [[OSE]] shell 

 

 h3. LMT B (RJ45) 

 _Site LAN_ Ethernet, for adminstrative purpose 

 This is the interface used for configuration of the DUL during installation.

 h3. TN A (RJ45) 

 _Transmission_ Ethernet, i.e. the back-haul interface for S1. RJ-45 

 h3. TN B (SFP) 

 _Transmission_ Ethernet for optical back-haul. Can use normal SFP modules. 

 {{thumbnail(DUL20_01_TNB_IDL_detail.jpg, size=400)}} 

 h3. IDL (HSIO) 

 Inter-DU-Link for cross-connecting multiple DU. 

 h3. RI A..F (SFP) 

 Radio Interface (CPRI) using either SFP transceivers for RRU connection or copper interconnect cables for RU.

 h2. Accessing it 

 h3. SSH via LMT-B 

 It appears the DUL will always respond to 169.254.1.10/16, no matter what kind of real/other IP address has been set. 

 You have to use the following SSH config to speak the ancient cipher/key-exchange: 
 <pre> 
 Host dul 
         HostName 169.254.1.10 
         KexAlgorithms diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 
         Ciphers 3des-cbc 
 </pre> 

 and then log in as the 'rbs' user with 'rbs' password.
