I am putting together a parts list for a test station, and I am currently planning the reference clock distribution scheme. What is the minimum power for the B210 10 MHz reference clock input? The knowledge base indicates +15 dBm maximum, but provides no minimum: https://files.ettus.com/manual/page_usrp_b200.html
I was planning on distributing a 0 dBm sinusoidal 10 MHz reference clock to all the test equipment. Any problems with this approach with a B210?

The data sheet for the PLL that is driven by the REF clock input says
-5dBm minimum. My guess is that if your distributor is able to deliver
0dBm on all ports, it should be fine.
