__NoTOC__
TelcoBridges Tmedia and Tdev devices support the sharing of a precision clock among multiple devices via the Building Integrated Timing Supply (BITS) method. With TelcoBridges hardware, BITS Ports are derived from DS3 and STM-1 TDM adapters of a Tdev [[TMP6400]] or a Tmedia [[TMG3200]], as well as from a [[TMS1600]].

== BITS ports and clocking ==
In order to use BITS as a clocking source, the BITS ports of a [[TDM]] module are assigned to a line service that will carry the BITS port signaling. BITS Ports are shown in the figure below.

== Using BITS ports for signaling ==
Starting with release 2.3 of [[Toolpack]], it is possible to convert unused BITS ports into [[Signaling_Ports|signaling ports]] in order to recover a channel on the primary DS3 or STM-1 connection.
