Single Clock Source Network
In this mode, the central site serves as the clock source for the whole network.
When bundles from several sources arrive at the same E1/T1 port, the clock is
regenerated from the first bundle of each port (for E1, bundle number 1 for port 1,
bundle number 32 for port 2, bundle number 63 for port 3, bundle number 94 for
port 4).
Multiple sites that are transmitting to an IPmux-4 port that is set to adaptive mode
must have the same source clock. The following table describes configuration
options:

Frame Format
The Ethernet frame sent by the IPmux-4 is a UDP datagram that transfers E1/T1
payload bytes over IP over Ethernet (UDP payload + UDP header + IP header +
Ethernet header).
