NOTE: Ensure that the 10-MHz or 1-PPS source network equipment
contains Low Voltage Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor
(LVCMOS) or is compatible with low-voltage (3.3 V) transistor-transistor
logic (LVTTL).

Connecting a Time-of-Day Device to the Router
A time-of-day port labeled ToD on the front panel of the RCB enables you to connect
external timing devices.
To connect the router to a ToD external timing device:
1. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding trap on your bare wrist, and connect
the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis.
2. Plug one end of the RJ-45 cable into the ToD port on the front panel of the RCB.
3. Plug the other end of the RJ-45 cable into the ToD timing device.
4. Verify that the LEDs for the ToD port on the router are lit steadily green.
5. Configure the port. See Configuring Clock Synchronization Interface on MX Series Routers.
