- Product Summary
- Product Details
-
- Number of outputs: 12 or 24 on the standard SDU; 16 (2x8 configuration) on the redundant SDU-R
- TTL output: 12 x TTL (2.5V into 50 Ohm), common GND, BNC connector
- Fiber-optic output: 12 x fiber optic (850nm multimode), ST connector
- Supported signal types: 10 MHz sine, PPS, IRIG AM/DCLS time code, TTL, fiber optic
- Signal delay: 24ns for TTL; 70ns rise / 90ns fall for fiber optic
- SDU-R: integrated RSC switching module, error detection, automatic/manual switchover
- SDU/EFB/MP: distributes E1/T1 telecom reference signals (1.544 or 2.048 MBit/s) to up to 24 devices
- Housing: 19" 1U aluminium case (Schroff Multipac), 485 x 45 x 305 mm
- Power input: 85-264 VAC (50/60Hz), optional redundant AC/DC power supply
- Operating temperature: 0°C ... +50°C
- Mounting: 19" rack or DIN rail options
- Distributes a single reference signal to dozens of devices in isolated, buffered form Redundant SDU-R model provides uninterrupted synchronization via automatic/manual switching Combines different signal types (TTL, sine, IRIG, fiber optic) in a single chassis Compact 19" 1U rack design for easy integration into data centers and telecom exchanges Dedicated SDU/EFB/MP variant for telecom E1/T1 reference distribution Optional redundant power supply for high availability
