External Clocking Port Connector Specifications

The external clocking port on the router contains four SMB connectors that support 10 MHz GPS and 1
pulse-per-second (PPS) signals. These signals can also be accessed through the External Clocking Input
port. These signals are internally isolated and have surge protection. Use a Molex 50-ohm SMB connector
or equivalent (not provided) to connect to the external clocking ports.

External Clocking Input Port Specifications

An external clocking input port labeled EXT REF CLK IN on the front panel of the router allows you to
connect external clock signal sources.
The port uses an autosensing RJ-48 connector to support framed T1 or E1 signals. Two LEDs indicate link
activity on the port and function in the same way as the T1/E1 ports. The clocking information is extracted
from the input, but the data is discarded.
Table 32 on page 90 provides the pinout information for the RJ-48 connector for the external clocking
input port.
