[time-nuts] Optical Distribution of 1PPS and IRIG

[Martin A Flynn]

Hi Chris,
Timing source is a SyncServer 200 with the rubidium option.    The 
inter-building fiber is already  budgeted as part of the IT and telecom 
portion of the project.   It adds no cost to the project to use it other 
then the optical transceivers.

That is where i need help - selecting the best product (in terms of 
cost/performance)
