3-222ATM-SYNC (ATM Synchronization)

Figure 3-10. Stratum 4 synchronization with simplex ATM PNC
NOTE:
The TN722 DS1 Interface circuit pack does not provide a synchronization
reference as reliably as the TN767 or TN464C circuit packs. Therefore,
administer the TN767 or TN464C circuit packs as the primary or secondary
sources.
Stratum 3 Synchronization
Stratum 3 synchronization is not supported in DEFINITY with ATM PNC.
Synchronization troubleshooting
A significant part of the Synchronization Recovery Strategy for a DEFINITY with
ATM PNC resides in the ATM switch’s clock hardware, firmware, and software.
DEFINITY monitors synchronization performance and alarms faulty components
within DEFINITY.
