Exploring the TEM Module connector panel
The connector panel of the TEM Module provides the connectors used to obtain timing
information from an external timing source (for example, a 1 PPS or 10MHz reference
clock), and to provide an external reference clock to another device during testing.
When you configure the TEM Module, after you specify the synchronization source,
LEDs will illuminate on the panel indicating which connectors to use for the specified
external timing source.
illustrates the TEM Module connectors.
For detailed connector specifications, refer to
of this
manual.
SMA connector
An SMA connector (labeled
GNSS Antenna
) is provided for a GNSS antenna.
SMB connectors - 1PPS input and output
Two SMB input connectors are available for 1 PPS input signals (labeled
1 PPS IN 1
and
1 PPS IN 2
).
•
A single 1 PPS input connector can be used to receive an external 1 PPS signal
(and tune the TEM Module’s rubidium oscillator).
•
Both 1 PPS input connectors are available to perform wander analysis. When
performing a wander test, the
1 PPS IN 1
SMB connector is used for the refer-
ence signal for the test; the
1 PPS IN2 SMB
connector is used to provide the
signal to be analyzed.
A third SMB output connector (labeled
1 PPS OUT
) can provide a disciplined 1 PPS
signal as an external timing reference to other instruments.
