SpaceBridge IPS-100 Disciplined Time Reference & NTP Server

SpaceBridge IPS-100 Disciplined Time Reference & NTP Server
The SpaceBridge IPS-100 combines precision time and frequency synchronization with an integrated NTP server, Layer 2 switch and Layer 3 router. Three isolated 10 MHz outputs and three isolated 1PPS outputs distribute stable timing references for satellite ground systems, broadcast networks, cellular infrastructure and data centers. Optimized for DVB-RCS/DVB-RCS2 applications, the IPS-100 supports platform-wide NCR/PCR clock distribution to synchronize VSAT terminals to a common system reference.
