Reference Clock for the MPS or EPS
The reference clocks are provided by the GCUa. The reference clocks generate
8kHz clock signals through the GCUa.
MPS: The clock signals are sent to the SCUa in the MPSa subrack through the
backplane. Then, the clock signals are sent to other boards in the same subrack.
EPS: The clock signals are sent to the SCUa board in the EPSa subrack through the
clock cable. Then, the signals are sent to other boards through the backplane.
Reference Clock for the TCS
Each TCS extracts line clock from the A interface. The line clock is processed
through A interface panel and then generates 8 KHz clock signals.
The clock signals are sent to the SCUa in the subrack through the backplane. Then
the clock signals are sent to other boards in the same subrack.
