Symmetricom SyncServer S200 ublox UPGRADED GPS NTP Server Network Time Clock

Guaranteed Good GPS Sync • Correct Date Displayed • New Latest Generation ublox GPS Receiver Installed • 2015 Late Model • Usually $4,385 • Fully Working • Good Cosmetic Condition • Latest Firmware • IPv6 Ready

Introduction

Note: This unit has been upgraded with a new, latest generation GPS receiver module from ublox. It is therefore unaffected by the September 18th 2022 week number rollover event that caused most SyncServers to fail to sync to GPS and eventually to show an incorrect date. The new card is good for accurate GPS time and date reception until 2037.

Here's a lightly used fully working SyncServer S200 NTP server that obtains highly accurate and traceable time from the GPS satellite constellation. Screenshots taken during my testing of the unit are provided below. The unit is in good cosmetic condition with just a few blemishes - and the VFD display while showing signs of use is clear and legible. No antenna is included, but I would be happy to quote for including one if needed. The antenna voltage is 12V so you cannot use one of the generic 5V antennas commonly offered for sale. And for best results the antenna needs to be mounted outside with a complete view of the sky. The unit has been reset to the factory logon defaults (logon with admin:symmetricom) ready for your install. This unit is the TCXO version; it does not have a Rubidium oscillator. The installed firmware is v1.36 - the most recent version available. The listing comprises the items you see in the images (only). No printed manual is included but a copy may be downloaded here (https://www.prostudioconnection.net/0912/SyncServer_S200_S250_S250i_UserGuide.pdf) if required. No other cables, documents or accessories are included.

Usually Sells for $4,385

The SyncServer S200 sets the standard which is shared by Symmetricom's other SyncServer network time servers.

Easy To Set Up and Maintain
SyncServers are the easiest to set up and maintain network time servers in the world. The front panel of the SyncServer S200 is designed to quickly bring the server online with a few front panel keystrokes or DHCP. To fully configure the unit, use the very intuitive web interface or the step-by-step wizards for the most common operations.

Highly Robust and Secure
The S200 provides reliable and secure network synchronization technology by combining multi-port, high-speed/ high-capacity network interfaces and versatile GPS timing receiver technology.

Flexibility and Performance
The multiple ports of the S200 provide the flexibility to adapt to different network topologies as networks grow and change. It supports a wide range of network protocols including IPv4 and IPv6, for easy management and seamless integration into your existing and future network. The high speed processor and a nanosecond clock assure high bandwidth NTP performance for hundreds of thousands of network clients.

Assured Perfect Timing
The Stratum 1 level S200 derives extremely accurate time directly from the atomic clocks aboard the GPS satellite system. Reliability is further enhanced via Stratum 2 operation by retrieving time from other user-designated time servers. All SyncServers can be upgraded to an internal Rubidium atomic oscillator to keep the time server accurate if the GPS signal is lost.

Customer Tested Time Server Design
The 5th generation Symmetricom SyncServer S200 has decades of design experience behind it. Customer input is evident in every detail. From the front and rear panel design configurations to the state-of-the art web interface, the S200 is unsurpassed in reliability, accuracy, security and ease of use.
