Transfer unit back (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

second

I believe this is a triple definition!

'transfer' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'unit' is the second definition.
(second is a kind of unit)

'back' is the third definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for second that I've seen before include "Brief moment" , "Support; a short time" , "Endorse, back" , "Position of runner-up" , "Small fraction of a day" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
