Single frequency network operators can depend on our GPS-Independent Time Transfer to synchronize transmitters in DTT, DVB-H, DMB and DAB networks. Use your Nimbra network to distribute an incredibly stable common time reference accurate to better than +/- 1.5 microseconds. It also supports much faster synchronization than is typically possible with expensive GPS-based systems.
Net Insight’s Time Transfer utilizes ETSI-standard Dynamic Synchronous Transfer
Mode (DTM) protocols, which guarantees Quality of Service for streaming media and packet-based services. The system uses standard 1 PPS and 10 MHz input and output signals. You can also configure different output signal parameters to meet your local requirements.
Time Transfer lets you reduce capital and operating costs by integrating highly accurate, extremely stable time signal distribution into the same network you use for media traffic. Eliminate points of failure and implement a system that is more fault-tolerant than any GPS-based solution.
You can set up your Nimbra network with primary and standby time references. The system also supports geographically separated time references to ensure 100% fault tolerance.
The system’s synchronization protocol automatically determines the shortest paths for timing distribution and restores those paths in the event of link or node failures.
