Description of Symmetricom Fiber-Optic
Distribution Amplifier and Receiver
High-integrity distribution of a common clock is the backbone for
power-utility substation synchronization. The 59552A Fiber-Optic
Distribution Amplifier and the 59553A Fiber-Optic Receiver provide a
simple, modular approach to signal routing. Immunity to electrical
noise makes fiber-optic cable a superior choice for the challenging
environment of the power substation.
59552A Fiber-Optic Distribution Amplifier
The 59552A Fiber-Optic Distribution Amplifier, used with the 59553A
Fiber-Optic Receivers, provides clean, timing-quality transmission of
precise frequency and time signals, or distribution of timing signals for
various applications (such as the analysis, monitoring, and control of
power-utility substations). In a typical application requiring
distribution of one pulse per second (1 PPS) and IRIG-B time code, the
59552A provides an identical, synchronous clock signal and precise
time of day to every distribution point.
The 59552A Fiber-Optic Distribution Amplifier receives a digital (TTL)
signal and an analog signal via two BNC connectors. The distribution
amplifier combines the signals, and transmits the result on each of the
eight fiber-optic outputs. Signal integrity is maintained over fiber-optic
cable lengths of up to 1 kilometer (3,281 feet). One 59553A receiver is
required for each of the outputs that are used.
The 59552A front-panel LEDs provide quick status indication.
The 59552A is completely compatible with the 59551A GPS
Measurements Synchronization Module, which provides high-quality
timing signals (both 1 PPS and IRIG-B) as standard rear-panel
outputs.

59553A Fiber-Optic Receiver
The 59553A Fiber-Optic Receiver is located at remote equipment
installations to receive a distributed signal from a common clock.
The 59553A receives the signal on fiber-optic cable, separates the
analog and digital waveforms, reconstructs the analog time code,
and outputs each signal to a BNC connector.
The 59553A, used with the 59552A Fiber-Optic Distribution Amplifier,
provides clean, timing-quality transmission to analyze monitoring and
control equipment in power-utility substations, or any application
involving precise frequency and time signals. In a typical application
requiring distribution of one pulse per second (1 PPS) and IRIG-B time
code, the 59953A ensures an identical, synchronous clock signal and
precise time of day at each distribution point.
The 59553A front-panel LEDs provide quick status indication.

Typical Timing Signal Distribution System
The following block diagram illustrates how the 59552A distribution
amplifier and the 59553A receiver can be connected for a typical
application requiring distribution of one pulse per second (1 PPS) and
IRIG-B time code. The 59553A ensures an identical, synchronous clock
signal and precise time of day at each distribution point. In addition to
connecting the 59552A and 59553A as shown in the block diagram, you
may need to configure both the 59552A and 59553A by positioning
internal jumpers (refer to Chapter 2, “Configuring Your
59552A/59553A”). You will also need to connect power to each unit
(refer to the section titled “Preparing the 59552A/59553A for Use” in
this chapter).
