    Chapter 1. Introduction 1.6 Applications / Capabilities In the following example, the Fiber Multiplexer utilizes an optical fiber connection between a pair of units to provide up to 16 channels of E1, T1, and 1 to 4 ports of Trunk Ethernet between the units. The timing scheme for typical E1 or T1 equipment is to transparently pass timing from a timing source unit on one side, to a timing slaved unit on the other.
