Precise Time and Frequency, Inc. GPS Receiver VF-3204A

Description
Features GPS Tracking: 12 parallel channels Acquisition Time: <1.5 minutes (warm start) Accuracy (1 PPS): <20ns Holdover: <0.2 micro seconds/day (Rb opt) 10/100 Base T Ethernet NTP (optional), Telnet, TCP/IP, HTTP Monitor/Control interface Alarm indicator and output Multiple RF output options GPS antenna and cable included Available in 2U Applications GPS Satellite Systems Satellite Base/Ground Station Frequency/Timing reference Timing, Synchronization, and Time Keeping Applications Monitoring and Control Devices Description The GlobalTyme™ Multi-Function GPS Receiver provides extraordinary stability in a highly flexible approach to utilizing the cesium stability of the GPS satellite system. Available in both 1U (VF-3203A) and 2U (VF-3204A) versions, the GlobalTyme™ can be configured as a high performance frequency standard, a comprehensive time standard or both. Frequency standard performance is application tailored with a range of local oscillator options (OCXO, Ultra Low Noise, Rubidium and High Performance Rubidium). The GlobalTyme™ is equipped with one 10MHz RF output (multiple frequencies including 1MHz and 5MHz available as options). Additional options for telecommunications signals of E1 or T1 clock are also available. Internal fitted RF distribution can be added to provide up to 10 (VF-3203A) or 24 (VF-3204A) outputs. For timing, synchronization and time keeping applications the unit provides IRIG-B, 1 PPS and NTP (optional). The 1 PPS output is accurate to within <20 ns of UTC (USNO). Optional 1 PPS input offers system redundancy or simply alternative master reference inputs to the internal GPS if desired. For monitoring and control, the unit houses an Ethernet interface (RJ-45) with various protocols suited to different user needs, from a simple Telnet interface to a fully web-driven browser interactive interface.
