along with 1PPS Signal. Signal
type is RS422.
RJ45TOD Port
A 10/100Mbps Ethernet Port for
IEEE1588 Grand Master
Connection through CAT5 cable.
Signal type is MLT3.
RJ45Service LAN Port (IEEE 1588)
10MHz Input or Output for GPS
Synchronization. This signal can
provide 10MHz output as well
from Cisco ASR 9001 Router.
Signal type is sinusoidal.
SMB10MHz Connector
1PPS Input or Output for GPS
Synchronization. This signal can
provide output as well from Cisco
ASR 9001 Router. Signal type is
square wave.
SMB1PPS Connector
Used as BITS or DTI (one at a
time) Input/Output Port based on
the configuration used. CAT5
Ethernet cable can be used for DTI.
In DTI mode link resembles an
Ethernet (802.3) 10BaseT link.
Signal type depends on the mode
such as B8ZS for T1, HDB3 for
E1, Manchester Coded Data for
DTI, Sinusoidal for 6.3128 Out.
