T640 SONET Clock Generators (SCGs) Components
Each SCG consists of the following components:
- 19.44-MHz Stratum 3 clock.
- Field-programmable gate array (FPGA) that performs multiplexing of clock sources.
- Three LEDs, located on the SCG faceplate, that display the status of the SCG. Table 1 describes the functions of the SCG LEDs.
- SCG online/offline button, located on the SCG faceplate.
- Two external clock inputs.
