Connecting Cables to the Output 10Mhz or 1PPS Interface
Procedure
Step 1
Connect one end of a mini-coax Y-cable to the Slave unit.
Step 2
Connect one end of the split-side Y-cable mini-coax to the 10Mhz or 1PPS port on the primary RSP of the
Cisco NCS 4216.
Step 3
Connect the other end of the split-side Y-cable mini-coax to the 10Mhz or 1PPS port on the backup RSP of
the Cisco NCS 4216.
Connecting Cables to the ToD Interface
Procedure
Step 1
Connect one end of a straight-through Ethernet cable to the GPS unit.
Step 2
Connect one end of the split-side Y-cable Ethernet to the ToD port on the primary RSP of the Cisco NCS
4216.
Step 3
Connect the other end of the split-side Y-cable Ethernet to the ToD port on the backup RSP of the Cisco NCS
4216.

Note
To comply with the Telcordia GR-1089 NEBS standard for electromagnetic compatibility and
safety, connect the ToD ports only to intra-building or unexposed wiring or cable. The intrabuilding
cable must be shielded and the shield must be grounded at both ends. The intra-building port(s) of
the equipment or subassembly must not be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the
OSP or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2
or Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089-CORE) and require isolation from the exposed OSP
cabling. The addition of Primary Protectors is not sufficient protection in order to connect these
interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.
Warning
For more information about GPS port pinouts, see the
section.
Note
