Chapter 1 Overview of the TimeSource 3100

Functional Description

24 TimeSource 3100 User’s Guide 097-72020-01 Revision K – December 2005

Eight Additional E1 Outputs (990-72020-02 Systems Only)

This option provides a module for eight additional E l or analog (2.048 MHz)

outputs. The module mounts in the OPTIONS I/O mountings on the connector

panel. These outputs function the same as the standard E l outputs.

TOD Output

The BesTime Ensemble Timing Generator provides the timing for the TOD timing

signal available at the RJ-45 connector, which provides time code to devices

compatible with NTP Type 4 or Cisco format.

IRIG-B TOD Outputs (990-72020-05 Systems Only)

This option provides a module for four additional TOD outputs in IRIG-B format. The

module mounts in the OPTIONS I/O mountings on the connector panel. The

BesTime Ensemble Timing Generator provides the timing for the TOD timing signal,

which provides timing code to devices compatible with IRIG-B.

1 PPS Output

The BesTime Ensemble Timing Generator provides the timing for the 1

pulse-per-second timing signal available at the 1 PPS connector, which can be used

for application-specific requirements.

10 MHz Output

The BesTime Ensemble Timing Generator provides timing for the 10 MHz timing

signal available at the 10 MHz connector, which can be used for local cellular

frequency or testing purposes.

Two ESCIU Ports (990-72020-04 Systems Only)

This option provides a module for two E1 ports. The module mounts in the

OPTIONS I/O mountings on the connector panel. E1 traffic-carrying signals are

synchronized using the BesTime Ensemble Timing Generator. Jitter and wander

are also removed before sending the E1 signals to network elements.

If an alarm condition or power failure occurs, relays allow the E1 signals to bypass

the system (see Figure 1-4).
