2.2 DESCRIPTION

2.3.1 APPLICATIONS AND ASSOCIATED TIMING

There are two typical applications that result in two different timing modes for the G.703 interface. These are illustrated below.

Timing of Application 1: Network Loop Extension

In this application, the network supplies the timing for the entire system. The first G.703 recovers the timing. It has to smooth the clock before it supplies the clock (XCLK1) and the data (TXD1) to the first modem transmitter, so it can directly use the clock. The Rx of the second modem recovers the clock and presents a “jittery” clock (RXCLK1) and data (RXD1) to the second G.703’s transmitter. This transmitter has to smooth the clock before it uses the clock to transmit.

The Rx of the second G.703 recovers the timing and clocks the data into a FIFO. The Tx of the second modem takes its recovered clock and sends it (TXCLK1) to the G.703 FIFO for data (TXD1). The Rx of the first modem recovers the timing and clocks (RXCLK1) the data (RXD1) into a FIFO. The Tx of the first G.703 uses the first G.703’s recovered clock and sends it to the FIFO for data.

The Patton Model IM 1/F Interface Module converts data from a

64K G.703 network into a Transistor-Transistor Logic (TTL) compatible signal that is transported by the PE 1090 or 1092 Modem or a similar 2 or 4 wire short haul modem that has identical pin outs and edge con- nector style (see note, below). The G.703 network provides a 64K co-

capable of handling either network timing or modem timing, thereby realizing network extension or network replacement configurations. Clock jitter is attenuated according to G.823.
