Spectracom SecureSync 013 GPS GLONASS OCXO 10MHz Oscillator NTP Network Server

Ex Factory Demo B-Stock • Tested/Guaranteed • OCXO Oscillator Upgrade • GPS / GLONASS / Beidou /Galileo Constellations Reception • NTP Network Time Server • 10MHz GPSDO Disciplined Oscillator • 1PPS Source • Includes New Rack Ears

Introduction

Here's an ex factory demo in factory carton SecureSync GPS NTP server which maintains accurate time via the GPS satellite constellation. It has the OCXO upgraded oscillator installed. This unit is in very good cosmetic condition. For your peace of mind the unit has been tested and confirmed to operate as expected - see screenshots below from the actual item for sale under test. The firmware has also been updated to v5.9.4 which is the latest revision at the time of listing. This model has the later GPS receiver installed and so it can receive the GPS, GLONASS, Beidou and Galileo satellite constellations simultaneously (with appropriate antenna), tracking 18 or more satellites at most times with a roof mounted antenna. You can receive up to three GNSS constellations simultaneously. A professional grade outdoor 5V antenna will be required to receive the time signals from the GPS system. I usually have suitable types listed separately (and can provide a recommendation if required). For a permanent installation an outdoor antenna with a full view of the sky is required. A suitable downlead can be obtained from a cable fabricator. The listing comprises the SecureSync server and a new set of rack ears. No unpictured accessories, cables, documents or software are included.

Description

SecureSync combines Spectracom’s precision master clock technology and secure network-centric approach with a compact modular hardware design to bring you a powerful time & frequency reference system at the lowest cost of ownership. Military and commercial applications alike will benefit from its extreme reliability, security, and flexibility for synchronizing critical operations.

An important advantage of SecureSync is its unique rugged chassis designed to meet Mil 810F for environmental performance. The modular design provides for the most cost effective solution. Built-in time and frequency functions are extended with up to 6 input/output modules (not included).

Included with the base unit is an extremely accurate 1PPS timing signal aligned to a 10 MHz frequency signal without any 10 MHz phase discontinuity.

On-board clocks synchronize to a variety of external references as standard, factory-installed, or upgradeable options. Choose from a variety of option cards (not included) to add to your configuration of timing signals, including additional 1PPS, 10MHz, time code (IRIG, ASCII, HaveQuick), other frequencies (5 MHz, 2.048 MHz, 1.544 MHz), telecom T1/E1 data rates, multi-network NTP, and PTP.

To support network time synchronization, SecureSync supports the latest features of network time protocol (NTP) and precision time protocol (PTP, IEEE-1588v2) [not installed]. An optional multi-port NTP configuration (not included) allows for operation across 4 isolated LAN segments. For security, system management can be restricted to a dedicated management LAN. Up to 6 PTP ports can be added (not included) to operate in various PTP deployments.

SecureSync is a security-hardened network appliance designed to meet rigorous network security standards and best practices. It ensures accurate timing through multiple references, tamper-proof management, and extensive logging. Robust network protocols are used to allow for easy but secure configuration. Features can be enabled or disabled based on your network policies. Installation is aided by DHCP (IPv4), AUTOCONF (IPv6), and a front-panel keypad and display. The 1 RU chassis supports GPS input. The unit is powered by AC on an IEC60320 connector.
