I was slightly imprecise in my previous posting about ubx timing modules and a few people have raised queries in the list or by email.

What I should have said is that this module is designed as a precise low-noise /frequency /reference so it directly generates the 30.72 MHz needed in LTE infrastructure from a GPS disciplined VCTCXO. As I understand it, the usual 10 MHz output is digitally generated and jitters, so can't be used as a reference in high performance radio systems. One could use a phase-locked synth to multiply up from the 1 PPS signal but given the large ratio needed this is prone to generating its own noise. The M8F does it all internally and is therefore preferred if what you want is a low noise frequency reference, though its frequency may not be ideal if for example you wanted 10 MHz - you could get 10.24 MHz by dividing by 3 but 10 MHz is trickier.
