I noticed what I think is a typo in sas21-r02.pdf 19May2009.
pg 125. 5.8.4.6.1 Table 29. Note g.
"RJ is 14 times the RJ 1 sigma value, based on a BER of 1e-12. For
simulations based on a BER of 1e-15, the RJ specified is 17 times the RJ 1
sigma value."
I believe it should be "... on a BER of 1e-15, the RJ specified is 15.88
times the RJ 1 sigma value."
I think it should be 15.88 rather than 17.
Here is a link to one document that shows the Multipliers for different
BER values. See pg 3.

BER-12 14.069
BER-15 15.883
