PAGE 61
MX-2100/2104 Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 General Information Data Channel Clock Modes MX-2100 provides several clock modes for data channels. The following various system I/O modules support all, or some of these modes. • Clock Mode 1 - DCE. In the DCE clock mode, the MX-2100 channel provides transmit and receive clocks for the equipment connected to the data sub channel, as shown in Figure 1-34. This clock mode is usually required for connection to DTE equipment. DTE RCV Clock KHS.
PAGE 62
MX-2100/2104 Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 General Information When operating channels in the DTE2 clock mode, one of the data channels can be selected as the external timing reference source for the entire system timing. The external timing option is always used because it ensures the main link transmit and receive data rates are locked to the corresponding channel rates. If the main link data rates are not locked to the corresponding channel rates, bit integrity will be lost.
