4 General Description

The FANT-F AC NT board is responsible for:

• the routing/switching and the aggregation of end-user data streams to and from
network interfaces and/or uplink interfaces.
• Centralized shelf control and management
• System clock generation
• Network Timing Reference (NTR) generation, Synchronous Equipment Timing
Source (SETS).
