SNM-1001L Satellite Modem Revision 1
Asymmetrical Loop Timing MN/SNM1001L.IOM
11–2
The transmit data is normally clocked into the modem with the Terminal Timing (TT)
clock in typical EIA-422 operation. The received data is clocked out with the Receive
Timing (RT) clock. The asymmetrical loop timing option allows the transmit and receive
data to be clocked with the same, or a multiple of the same clock. The added benefit is
that the transmit and receive data rates do not have to be the same.

Notes:
1. When CONFIGURATION INTERFACE → LOOP TIMING is set to ON, SCT
(INT) will change to read: SCT (LOOP).
2. When CONFIGURATION MOD → MOD REF is set to EXT MOD, S3 will
switch to the EXT REF position.
