7.2.2 PassingSyncinaSingleHop
Network sync can be passed in a single hop in the following network designs:
• Design 1
1. A CMM provides sync to a collocated AP.
2. This AP sends the sync over the air to SMs.
• Design 2
1. A CMM provides sync to a collocated BH timing master.
2. This BH timing master sends the sync over the air to a BH timing slave.
7.2.3 PassingSyncinanAdditionalHop
Network sync can be extended by one additional link in any of the following network
designs:
NOTE:
In each of these following designs, Link 2 is not on the same frequency band as
Link 4. (For example, Link 2 may be a 5.2-GHz link while Link 4 is a 5.7- or 2.4-
GHz link.)
• Design 3
1. A CMM provides sync to a collocated AP.
2. This AP sends the sync over the air to an SM.
3. This SM delivers the sync to a collocated AP.
4. This AP passes the sync in the additional link over the air to SMs.
This design is illustrated in Figure 25.
