RECOVERED CLOCK. This output is synchronous with the incoming data signal.
A sample of the input data is routed to the serial clock recovery circuit.
Recovered clock is available when using either optical or electrical signals.
NOTE. If no signal (or an inappropriate signal) is applied to the front panel, the
recovered clock and data will oscillate.
ELECTRICAL OUT. This output is the electrical output from the O/E converter.
Use the supplied adapters to connect to the Ch1 input or other equipment.
Use the O/E Electrical Out-to-Ch1 Input adapter to connect the Electrical Out of
the optical-to-electrical converter to the CH1 input of the instrument. This
connection allows you to use the instrument as a calibrated reference receiver.
Adaptors are interchangeable between CSA7000 Series instruments while still
allowing calibrated reference receiver mode.
