    (within the performance limits set by an operator), the SSU-2000e frequency-locks to the signal on a priority basis. System holdover and filtering performance is dependent on the quality of oscillators used in the SSU-2000e’s internal clock modules (Stratum 2E or Stratum 3E).
  • Page 24: Input Section

    Chapter 1 Product Overview System Architecture Figure 1-5. Block Diagram of the SSU-2000e As indicated in Figure 1-5, the SSU-2000e consists of four major sections: Input section Clock section Output section Communications section Input Section The input section consists of one or more (maximum of three) Input modules that are connected to reference signals and are tested for signal integrity.
  • Page 25 Wander is reported in terms of Maximum Time Interval Error (MTIE) and Time Deviation (TDEV). The data is then stored for use in the SSU-2000e and reported through the Communications module. You can install one or two GPS input modules that use the satellite-based Global Positioning System signals as a synchronization reference.
  • Page 26 Priority setting; if all inputs have the same Priority level, then the input with the highest PQL (quality level, SSM) is used. If you select PQL mode, the SSU-2000e selects the input reference with the highest assigned PQL level or associated SSM; if all inputs have the same PQL/SSM value, then the input with the highest Priority levels is used.

    SSM. If a valid SSM is not received, the module uses the user-assigned SSM. Setting an Input Alarm Strategy You can provision the SSU-2000e to elevate input alarms to the next higher level after a specified amount of time. You can also specify that an alarm clears automatically after a specified period of time without the alarm condition.
  • Page 28: Clock Section

    The Communications module is installed in slot A2 and provides an interface between the user and the SSU-2000e system. This interface allows the user to display and control much of the activity in the SSU-2000e system and within the optional SDU-2000e expansion system. The Communications module supports three serial ports and one Ethernet port, and allows communication over each of them independently in one of several possible modes (ICS, TL1, SNMP, or packet).
  • Page 29: Alarms And Events

    System Architecture When the Communications module is installed, it performs an initial software verification test to verify operation. If the module is being installed in the SSU-2000e with power already applied and with other modules installed, the Communications module reads the configuration of the modules in the SSU-2000e and the modules in all installed SDU-2000e expansion shelves.
