Note 1: Includes (a) initial frequency offset, (b) linear frequency drift rate (aging), and (c) temperature component,
except that the temperature component is not applicable (NA) for the type V and type VI clocks
(reference table A.18/G.812).
Note 2: Where stratum 3 clock is used in a SONET NE, its bandwidth is 0.1 Hz.

Asynchronous system: Only jitter is of interest. PLLs track the slow phase variations
(wander).
Synchronous system: Both wander and jitter are of interest. PLLs for clock recovery
are sensitive to jitter. FIFOs operate open loop and are sensitive to wander.

What is Wander?
Wander
reference
Rx
TIE can be interpreted as the time difference between the signal being measured and the reference clock. It is
typically measured in nanoseconds and set to zero at the start of the measurement period. TIE gives the timing
change since the measurement began.
