2.1.2 TDS-2 Time Distribution Server Module System Requirements

continued 

Timing signal 
ports 

The timing signal ports use RJ45 connectors.  Connections to DAG cards 
are made with normal Ethernet style Cat-5/6 cables and infrastructure, 
using straight-through type only.  

 

Trimble 
Acutime 2000 
GPS Kit 

The Trimble Acutime 2000 GPS receiver can be purchased as part of the 

Acutime 2000 Synchronisation Kit

, including integrated antenna/receiver, 

100 foot cable, power supply, and signal converter, Trimble part number 
40986-00. Only the antenna/receiver and cable are needed for use with the 
TDS-2. 
 
The antenna/receiver can be purchased separately [39091-00], with 
matching cables in 50, 100, 200, and 400 foot lengths [23098, 23099, 
24017, 24260]. 

 

Praecis Ct 
CDMA time 
receiver 

The Praecis Ct CDMA time receiver is available directly from 

Endrun 

Technologies

 Ltd.  There must be a CDMA network available with good 

signal at the intended installation site. This may be checked with a CDMA 
cellular phone in digital mode. 

 

CAUTION 

The TDS-2 must never be connected directly to active Ethernet 
equipment

.

 

 

2.1.3 TDS-2 Time Distribution Server Module Accessories 

Description 

The accessories included with the TDS-2 Time Distribution Server 
include: 
 

 

One DB9-to-DB25 Adapter, enabling connection of Trimble 
Acutime 2000 to TDS-2 module 
 

NOTE:  Only the adapter supplied is used for this connection. 
 

Optional extras 
 

 

12V DC power adapter 

 

19" rack-mount kit available - 1U (1.75") standard size 

 

Endace TDS-6 Time Distribution Expansion Unit 

 

2.2 TDS-2 Time Distribution Server Module Connection to Power 
Sources 

Introduction 

The TDS-2 module can function with alternative power sources.  The 
module can be connected either to an electrical mains power source using 
an AC-to-DC adapter, or directly to a DC power source.   

 

In this section 

This section covers the following topics of information. 

 

 

Connect TDS-2 Module to Electrical Mains Power Source 

 

 

Connect TDS-2 Module to 12V DC Power Source
