Using Phase-Correction FIFO Buffer with Transparent Encoding
The transparent encoding feature provides a phase-correction FIFO buffer. This FIFO
buffer aligns the clock and data phase relationship on a transparent encoded circuit in
which the clock travels in one direction through the network, and the data travels in the
opposite direction. The transparent FIFO buffer is needed because of the latency of signal
transport over the IP network.
Figure 4 on page 14 shows the phase-correction FIFO buffers. You can enable the
phase-correction FIFO buffer at either end of the circuit. You would not enable the FIFO
buffer at both ends of the circuit.

Figure 5 on page 15 shows the paths of the clock and data through the phase-correction
FIFO buffer that is enabled on the transparent circuit on the right.
•
The clock enters the network from the DCE, goes to the DTE, and then clocks data into
the network on the DTE. The clock is also looped back on the DTE to enter the network
in phase with the data as it travels from the DTE to the DCE.
•
The data enters the FIFO buffer in phase with the clock passing through the network
from the DTE to the DCE, while data is clocked out of the FIFO buffer with the clock
that entered the network from the DCE, which is in phase with the user clock.
