Product Overview
SDU-2000 Synchronization Distribution Unit
Buffered Clocks
The signals that are provided by the main shelf Clock modules to the Buffer
modules in the expansion shelf are isolated versions of the signals used by the
Output modules in the main shelf. This prevents the expansion shelf and its cabling
from affecting the outputs of the main shelf.
SDU Module Features
The SDU-2000 expansion shelf supports all Output modules available for the main
shelf, and Buffer modules. The SDU-2000 expansion shelf can support up to 14
Output modules.
One or two Buffer modules, assigned to slots A15 and A16
One to 14 Output modules; a mixture of Output module types, where each group
of two modules must be identical
The last two module slots in the expansion shelf, labeled A15 and A16, contain the
Buffer modules that buffer the corresponding Clock and Communications modules
in the main shelf. The buffered signals from these modules are distributed through
the motherboard to the Output modules.
Other common module features include:
Any module can be inserted or removed while power is applied without affecting
the operation of other modules in the system
All modules are individually fused to protect the system in case of a short circuit
on any one module
The SSU-2000 and the SDU-2000 share common Output modules
All modules have front panel LED status indicators
All modules are equipped with ejector tabs for ease of installation and removal
All modules are secured in place with captive screws to provide module security
and reduce the occurrence of unauthorized removal
All modules, except the Buffer module, have an integrated CPU with firmware
and are software configurable through the SSU-2000. See
, on page 224, for additional information
Each module slot has two associated hybrid DIN connectors on the chassis
backplane. The hybrid contacts of these connectors are used for Power, Logic
Ground, and Frame Ground connections
Each module slot has three pins connected together on each hybrid DIN
connector that allows the system firmware to detect module removal and
insertion. This capability provides plug-and-play capability.
