| Answer to question #19:
Here is the table of reference for the clock architecture
on the Thor-2-PCMCIA: Clock D refers to an external 16.384 MHz clock. On the Thor-2-PCMCIA
board all the internal TDM data highways and the all the devices processing
TDM data are synchronized to one clock reference. The clock reference
can be derived from multiple sources and then switched to all the devices.
In the event that the clocking source is lost, Thor-2-PCMCIA will automatically
switch to a backup clocking source. For example, if clocking is derived
from an incoming T1/E1 span(Li 0), and the span experiences Loss of Signal
(LOS), the clocking source is automatically switched to the internal oscillator.
