Global Positioning System (GPS) and the ACX Series Routers
Global Positioning System (GPS) is a navigation aid system that uses signals from satellites to calculate the actual position of a GPS-capable receiver. These signals are not only used for determining the position of the receiver on Earth but also as a very accurate time base. There are GPS receivers with 10-MHz clock frequency output synchronized to a GPS satellite. The ACX Series router has a SubMiniature version B (SMB) connector that can take 10-MHz sine-wave input from a GPS receiver. To configure this 10-MHz clock from a GPS receiver as a candidate clock source for chassis synchronization, include the gps statement and options at the [edit chassis synchronization source] hierarchy level.
