Configuring the system clocking parameters

In this section you will define clocking sources for the main reference and fallback reference on the 3196RC TDAC. Clocking source selection will depend on the clocking role you assign to the blade: master(1), second- ary(2), or slave(3). The master will drive the main reference clock for the chassis. Should the master fail, the secondary will drive the main reference. Slaves will not drive any clock reference. Most often the 3196RC will be configured as slave(3), with another blade (such as the Patton Model 6511) configured as the master(1).

As clocking sources for the 3196RC, you can choose:

•Any one of the WAN ports

•An internal oscillator

•A WAN port from another blade module

•An external 64-kHz BITS (building integrated timing supply) reference clock

Note For the external BITS clock setting to operate, you must connect the BITS clock system at the installation site to the EXT CLOCK connec- tor on one of the WAN access modules installed in the rear of the ForeFront chassis.
