Some how perl doesn't allow me to unpack like this (look at H2 H2 H16 H2 A2 ...) :

my @stack = unpack q{
H2 ### Header Record Id : 1 Byte
H2 ### File Format Version : 1 Byte
H16 ### Timestamp : 8 Bytes
H2 ### No. of BSCs : 1 Byte
   ###     For each BSC ...
A2 ###     BSC Id : 1 Byte
A2 ###     Application Version : 1 Byte
A4 ###     BSC Name : 2 Bytes
A4 ###     Number of Cells : 2 Bytes
   ###         For each Cell ...
A4 ###         Cell Pointer : 2 Bytes
A18 ###         Cell Name : 9 Bytes
A4 ###         Number of Neighbour Cells : 2 Bytes
   ###             For each Neighbour Cell to this BSC ...
A4 ###             Cell Pointer : 2 Bytes
A18 ###             Cell Name : 9 Bytes
}, $rawAsHex;

Any idea how this could be done?

I get a output like this :

[
  48,
  48,
  "3031303030303030",
  [
    30,
    30,
    "3031303030303030",
    30,
    "04",
    "f9",
    "14f1",
    "c0b0",
    1004,
    "253434130300000000",
    5000,
    "0434",
    "130303030300000000",
  ],

Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
