Device description
The FG8101G01 is a modular time reference system, which can serve most different
application cases by the supported hot-plug extension boards (in the following text only
called extension board/s).
A distinction is made between four functionalities that can be provided by extension
boards:
Power Supply Unit (
PSU
): Power supply extension, which supplies the FG8101G01
with power.
Management Controller (
MC
for short): Management extension, with which the
FG8101G01 and all its extension boards can be managed.
Time Domain Controller (
TDC
for short): Time source extension, extension boards
with this functionality have a connector for a time source and supply the
FG8101G01 and the rest of the extension boards with a highly accurate time signal
Service Provider (
SP
for short): process the time signals provided by the TDCs and
thus generate a time output for the customer
Note
An extension board can provide more than one functionality.
