The PTP Slave (IEEE 1588 v2) Network Time Client provides network service providers and equipment manufacturers with a packet-based timing and synchronisation solution.
Key Features
- Delivers highly economic end-to-end frequency synchronisation.
- Frequency accuracy better than 10ppb possible using Gigabit switches
- Precision timing circuits ensure stability in event of synchronisation signal interruption.
- Client system time accuracy better than 1 microsecond using Gigabit switches
- Configuration and alarm reporting capabilities using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
- Time of day (TOD) is provided for support of legacy equipment using IRIG B, RS232, RS422 and RS485
The PTP Slave Network Time Client eliminates the need to install embedded PTP client solutions thereby providing a rapid upgrade for deploying packet-based timing with an immediate cost saving and a quick return on investment.
The PTP Slave Network Time Client enables operators to lower operating costs migrating from a TDM to Ethernet backhaul and is equipped with E1/T1, 1PPS and 10MHz ports for synchronising remote network equipment such as UMTS, LTE, WiMAX and PON devices.
Typical Applications Include:
- LTE
- WiMAX
- Ethernet Backhaul
- Passive Optical Networks (PON)
- Circuit Emulation Services (CES)
- Applications requiring Precise Timing delivered over a Packet Network
PTP Slave System Benefits:
- Seamless Upgrade to PTP IEEE1588v2
