Cabling the SRP I/O Module
The next step in cabling the system is to connect cables to your SRP I/O 
module. See 
Note: The alarm function on the SRP I/O module is currently not implemented.
Cable connections to your SRP I/O module are divided into two sections: 
external timing ports and console ports. 
shows the
specifications for each section.
External Timing Ports
Two external clock source input ports provide a method of ensuring that 
the system’s clock timing remains synchronized with the network’s system 
clock. The primary clock is labeled A; the secondary, redundant clock is 
labeled B. Use the connector type appropriate for your location:
•
Two 75-ohm E1 2.048-Mbps inputs with BNC connectors
•
Two 100-ohm T1 inputs with three pin wire-wrap connectors. Pins are 
labeled T (Tip), G (Ground), and R (Ring). We recommend using 
26-AWG wire minimum.
Note: Use shielded cables to connect the external clock sources to the clock 
source input ports.
