7 Configuring BSC Clocks

About This Chapter

This topic describes how to configure BSC clocks for the synchronization of boards in each
subrack.

1. 7.1 Configuring the Line Clock for the GTCS

Each GTCS extracts the line clock from the A interface and uses the line clock as its
reference clock.
2. 7.2 Configuring the 8K Reference Clock for the GTCS
This topic describes how to configure the line clock extracted from the A interface as the
reference clock for the GTCS. The GEIUA/GOIUA processes the line clock and generates
a 8 kHz clock as the synchronization clock for the GTCS.
3. 7.3 Configuring the Line Clock for the GMPS
The GMPS extracts the line clock from the GTCS through the Ater interface. The line clock
serves as the input clock for the GGCU in the GMPS.
4. 7.4 Configuring the System Clock
This topic describes how to configure the system clock. The GGCU processes its input
clock and generates the 8 KHz clock as the transmission synchronization clock and the time
synchronization clock for the boards in the GMPS or GEPS.
5. 7.5 Configuring the 8K Reference Clock for the GMPS
This topic describes how to configure the 8 kHz clock provided by the backplane of the
GGCU as the 8K reference clock for the GMPS. The 8K reference clock serves as the
synchronization clock for the boards in the GMPS.
6. 7.6 Configuring the 8K Reference Clock for the GEPS
This topic describes how to configure the 8 kHz clock provided by the panel of the GGCU
as the 8K reference clock for the GEPS. The 8K reference clock serves as the
synchronization clock for the boards in the GEPS.
