Chapter 1 Overview
TimeProvider 5000 PTP Probe Module
Ethernet Management Port
The Ethernet Management port is standard 10/100Base-T shielded RJ-45
receptacle. To connect the TP5000 probe module to an Ethernet network, use a
shielded twisted pair Ethernet RJ-45 cable.
EIA-232 Serial (Craft) Port
The EIA-232 serial port connection is made through a EIA-23 female connector on
the IMC. This port allow you to connect to a terminal or computer using a terminal
emulation software package. When connecting to this port, use a shielded EIA-232
direct connect cable.
GPS Connection
The IMC has a GPS input to provide a frequency and time reference (see Figure
1-5 ).

IMC Module
Programmable E1 Input Connections
Mini-BNC ports 1 and 2 on the I/O module (see Figure 1-6 ) are software
configurable as traditional telecom input ports with the following signal types:

2.048 Mb/s (G.703/9)

2.048 MHz (G.703/13)
Programmable E1 Output Connections
Two of the four traditional telecom synchronization mini-BNC ports (Port1 and
Port2) on the I/O module (
Figure 1-6 ) are software configurable as E1 output ports,
with the following signal types:

2.048 Mb/s (G.703/9)

2.048 MHz (G.703/13)
10MHz & 1PPS Output Connections
The TP5000 probe module comes equipped with an I/O module featuring 1PPS and
10MHz dedicated output ports. See
Figure 1-6 .
