New Net.Time Ω

Net.Time Ω

The Net.Time Ω (Omega) is a four-port PTP/NTP/SyncE clock with multiple configuration options to meet the timing requirements of a variety of industries, including utilities, data centres, railways, and air traffic control. The result is a consistently reliable and fault-tolerant solution for reference loss, network outages and power failures. At the same time, Net.Time Ω simplifies the transition to PTP while protecting investments in NTP, IRIG-B and BITS, facilitating the integration and interaction of all types of signals, profiles and protocols.

Universal Protocol / Profile translator

Net.Time is highly flexible, accepting multiple clock references to synchronise the internal circuitry. GNSS is the default and most obvious reference, but signals such as PTP, NTP, SyncE, ToD, IRIG-B and MHz/E1/T1 can also be used as backup time references in the event of GNSS failure or spoofing. Everything continues as before, with no loss of phase or time in the output signals. Net.Time can also translate PTP profiles; for example, it can be disciplined by the PTP telecom profile while offering PTP synchronisation with the power profile.

Synchronization made simple with Net.Time

Let’s be honest: configuring timing gear has traditionally been… painful. Nested menus, outdated Java, confusing CLI. Field engineers told us: “Just give us a clear view of all references and outputs… and make it easy pls.”

That’s exactly what we did!
