That depends on the environment
This is what i have read b4 about t1 timing srcs
1. If the T1 is point to point where both ends terminate on a different
* boxs. Then one of the T100p supplies clock for the other . The
network, unless other wise designed, will not supply clock to the T1
2. If the T1 originates from a PRI or channel bank, switch, etc, then the
network supplies clock
UNLESS the t100p can supply a T1 clock source traceable to a
Stratum 1 Primary Reference Source (PRS) ,
then the T100 can supply clock back to the T1..
see here for a defintion of stratum src

I am sure the clock on the digium h/w is not Stratum 1 :)
Its is probably a Stratum 4 TTL oscillator...
I think there are only a few Stratum 1 src in the NorthAmerica big $$$$.
If your just clocking a channel bank it maybe a toss up who has the the
best timing src, but some might have a Stratum 3 certifed src ??
