Selecting the Timing Source
The DSU/CSU provides the ability to select a master clock (timing) source
that is used to synchronize all of the T1 and data port interfaces on the
DSU/CSU. The clock for each interface is at the appropriate rate for that
interface (e.g., 1.544 Mbps for the T1 interface, the configured port rate for the
data ports), and it is independent of the master clock rate. This means that the
master clock rate and the DSU/CSU interface rates may be different.
The clock source configuration options enable you to select either the network
interface, a synchronous data port, or the internal clock.
