▀ Interface Specifications

BITS Timing Interface

Important:
derived from an ATM port on an OLC/OLC2, or an ANSI SONET STS-3/SDH STM-1 port on a CLC/CLC2 to
synchronize line card timing. (Line-derived clocking requires that the SPIO be equipped with the optional Stratum 3
clock module.)
BITS E1 BNC Interface
The BNC version of the SPIO employs a 75-ohm coaxial BNC connector that accepts an analog E1 BITS signal from
which the SPIO derives a 2048 kHz clock. The following figure shows the BITS BNC timing interface.
Figure 66.
BITS T1 3-Pin Interface
The 3-pin version of the SPIO employs a wire-wrap connector that accepts a T1 (DS1) BITS data signal (all ones) from
which the SPIO derives a 1544 kHz clock. The following figure shows the BITS 3-wire timing interface wire-wrap pin-
out.
