Overview
GNSS Module
The GNSS module (PID=A920-CM-GNSS) provides the time-of-day (ToD), 1PPS, and 10MHz network
synchronization signals. The GNSS module is not hot swappable.
Network Timing Interfaces
• 1PPS—1PPS input for GPS Synchronization. This connector on the front panel can provide 1PPS output
• 10MHZ—10MHz input for GPS Synchronization. This connector, present on the front panel, can also
• BITS—The BITS interfaces support clock recovery from either a T1 at 1.544 MHz or an E1 at 2.048
• ToD—The time-of-day interface can output the ToD in a format configurable by software. However,

Alarm
The router supports four dry contact alarm inputs through an RJ-45 jack on the front panel.
• Normally Open—indicates that no current flows through the alarm circuit and the alarm is generated
Each alarm input can be provisioned as critical, major, or minor.
Console
The RS232 console port provides transmission (Tx), reception (Rx), and ground (Gnd).
Auxiliary Console
The Auxiliary Console port provides transmission (Tx), reception (Rx), and ground (Gnd).
