NTS-PICO3

Ultra-miniature NTP/PTP IEEE 1588 time server

NTS-PICO3  is the next generation Industry 4.0, ultra-miniature time server.  It delivers time directly to the network using NTP and IEEE1588 protocols. It is equipped with a single 100/10Mbps Ethernet port working with IPv4/IPv6*. Devices support PHY  hardware PTP time-stamping. The unit also has natural air cooling and it ensures heavy-duty 24/7 operation. It has been designed for autonomous vehicles and Industry 4.0 robots and solar panel farm control. Time Server has very fast clock recovery (OFF-ON) important to start synchronisation until GNSS not ready (cold/warm start).

Devices can also support small industrial networks and can operate 24/7. The special rac 19” panels can support up to 6x NTS-PICO3 sharing a single GNSS antenna and single power supply. The device is powered in the range from 9VDC to 30VDC. It is equipped with a GNSS antenna and 30-meter coax cable (SMA ended). The marine dome antenna has a built-in GPS signal amplifier (38dB gain) and TCXO holdover oscillator for GNSS-less operations.
