NTS 03-G+ Network Time Server

Multiport Network Time Server NTS 03-G+

Product Information

Versatile Synchronisation Solution

Meeting the demanding precision and reliability requirements of the Energy market, Tekron’s NTS 03-G+ Network Time Server is a fully customisable, ruggedised, satellite reference clock offering multiple Ethernet ports supporting advanced Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and Network Time Protocol (NTP) based on the IEEE 1588v2-2008 standard.

The high-drive IRIG-B option delivers legacy device interoperability. This electrically protected platform brings ultimate reliability through the usage of optional rubidium and OCXO oscillator options and time sync redundancy through Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) support.

NTS 03-G+ Delivers Enhanced Security

Fully encrypted and authenticated configuration access delivers enhanced security and multiple user accounts are supported with configurable access control. Independently addressable and logically isolated Ethernet ports allow multiple networks to be connected to the same clock without compromising the network security. SNMPv3 and built-in NTP amplification attack immunity coupled with IRIG-B and PTP support make the NTS 03-G+ Network Time Server a versatile synchronisation solution.

Input/Output Signals:

  • DC IRIG-B or Modified Manchester
  • Fibre IRIG-B
  • AM IRIG-B (Modulated)
  • IEEE C37.118.1 extensions
  • User defined pulses (including 1PPS)
  • PTP (IEEE 1588v2)
  • NTP/SNTP
