Function Optical port, used to transmit and receive optical signals. TX refers to the transmitting optical port, and RX refers to the receiving optical port. Output ports for clock signals. These ports are used to transmit the 2 MHz line clock signals to the GCUa/GCGa board. The clock signals are extracted from upper-level devices and serve as the clock sources of the BSC6900 system.
Page 37
Clock Source
The reference clocks are provided by the GCUa. The reference clocks generate 8kHz clock signals through the GCUa. MPS: The clock signals are sent to the SCUa in the MPSa subrack through the backplane. Then, the clock signals are sent to other boards in the same subrack. EPS: The clock signals are sent to the SCUa board in the EPSa subrack through
the clock cable. Then, the signals are sent to other boards through the backplane.
Each TCS extracts line clock from the A interface. The line clock is processed through A interface panel and then generates 8 KHz clock signals.
The clock signals are sent to the SCUa in the subrack through the backplane. Then the clock signals are sent to other boards in the same subrack.
