5.4.8 CLOCK (J8)
The External Clock Port (J8) is used for injecting an external data clock into the modem. The
data symbol clocks may then be selected to be locked to this source. The external clock must
meet the following requirements:
Frequency:
9600 Hz to 2.048 MHz
Amplitude:
0.2 Vp-p to 5 Vp-p
Type:
Sinewave or Squarewave
5.4.9 G.703 BAL (J8)
The G.703 Balanced Port (J8) are the G.703 balanced data connectors. It is a 15-Pin Female
“D” Connector. Refer to Table 5-10 for connector pinouts.
