Figure 8-10. Stratum-4 Synchronization with Unduplicated ATM PNC
NOTE:
The TN722 DS1 Interface circuit pack does not provide a synchronization
reference as reliably as the TN767 or TN464C circuit packs. Therefore,
administer the TN767 or TN464C circuit packs as the primary or secondary
sources.
Stratum-3 Synchronization
Stratum-3 synchronization is not supported in S8700 Multi-Connect with ATM
PNC.
Synchronization Troubleshooting
A significant part of the Synchronization Recovery Strategy for a S8700
Multi-Connect with ATM PNC resides in the ATM switch’s clock hardware,
firmware, and software. S8700 Multi-Connect monitors synchronization
performance and alarms any faulty components. See ‘‘SYNC (Port-Network
Synchronization)’’ on page 8-1509.
