Description
The TimeProvider 4500 (TP4500) series is the world’s first IEEE® 1588 PTP Grandmaster with high-speed network interfaces that support up to 25 Gbps Ethernet (GbE) and the flexibility to choose from 1 GbE, 10 GbE, or 25 GbE options. This innovative hardware platform also enables the sub-nanosecond time accuracy.
Features:
- Enhancements such as the latest generation of synthesizer to enable the system to move into the picosecond realm and our latest generation PolarFire® SoC FPGA to ensure increased performance
- Higher IEEE 1588 scalability to implement thousands of clients
- Supports Precision Time Protocol (PTP), Network Time Protocol (NTP), and SyncE
- Meets Primary Reference Time Clock (PRTC) Class A, Class B, and enhanced PRTC (ePRTC) requirements and exceeds Class D for multi-domain boundary clocks
- Reliable, fanless passive thermal operation
- Redundancy via software mechanism using two active and standby units
- Patented, enhanced Assisted Partial Timing Support (APTS) with Automatic Asymmetry Compensation (AAC)
- Strong security and performance monitoring
