SecureSync® combines Spectracom’s precision GPS master clock technology and secure network-centric approach with a compact modular hardware design in a 1RU chassis to result in a powerful, scalable and flexible NTP appliance.
Supporting a wide variety of network synchronization and management protocols, the base model comes with a built-in 10/100 base-T Ethernet port for network management and high-performance NTP which can serve more than 7,500 NTP requests per second. It includes all the latest functions of NTPv4. It can be deployed in combination with other stratum-1 NTP server(s), can be used in a stratum-2 configuration, and can be expanded through option modules.
- NTP over Anycast
- Built-in network sync monitoring option
- Secure network management: enable or disable protocols
- IPv4/IPv6 dual stack
- Alert notifications via SNMP Traps and e-mail alerts
- CLI/SSH access for automation and scripting
- Multi-GNSS synchronization (GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, BeiDou, QZSS)
- STL option
- Best-in-class 5-year warranty
Options Modules Extend Synchronization Capability
A unique capability of SecureSync is to add hardware options at initial deployment or later as your network grows. An option adds three (3) 10/100/1000 interfaces to deliver NTP to multiple isolated LAN segments at 1 GigE. Two other options add PTPv2 functionality to the unit. One option is for a configurable master/slave PTP operation over a 10/100 network interface. The other is for PTP grandmaster functionality at 1 GigE. Up to six (6) of either types of ports can be added. Each PTP port is configured and operates independently to improve PTP performance since its processor is independent of all others in the system.
Along with precision 10 MHz and 1PPS outputs, all other physical synchronization signals can be generated as options so you can leverage your networking timing deployment to specifi c devices. Many of these signals can be used as references for redundancy or for other applications such as syncing across security boundaries via optical fiber.
Reliability and Scalability Supports All Timing Network Architectures
Several features support reliability and redundancy. SecureSync can also be deployed without the expense of a multi-GNSS receiver to operate as a Stratum-2 server. Units within the same stratum can be set as NTP peers. Any other timing source can also be a reference, such as T1/E1, time code, 1PPS, etc. You set the priority from all the available references. An internal oscillator maintains timing accuracy if all references are lost. Choose from TCXO, 2 types of OCXO and Rubidium. Add STL to GPS or GNSS to improve resilience, or use STL alone for indoor applications.
A Network-centric Approach
SecureSync is a security-hardened network appliance designed to meet rigorous network security standards and best practices. It ensures 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) or SLAAC, and a front-panel keypad and display, and a command-line interface. A modern web browser user interface supports confi guration unit and an optional monitor of synchronization quality throughout the network.
NTP Over Anycast
Orolia NTP services, implemented in its SecureSync and NetClock 9400 platforms, are compatible with an Anycast routing scheme. The NTP over Anycast feature is a combination of the time server’s ability to associate one of its network ports to an Anycast IP address and to remove itself as an available time source if there is a problem with its reference.
Our SecureSync PTP Grandmaster Clock system supports Precision Time Protocol Version 2 (PTP v2) and provides a scalable configuration to handle network expansion and the need for increased speed of data transfer.
The server appliance offers multiple 1GbE (RJ-45), 10GbE (SFP+), and 40GbE (QSFP) network ports for set-up, management, and simultaneous NTP and PTP server/grandmaster capability with built-in network sync monitoring.
The solution for indoor GPS timing. Consisting of an indoor GPS antenna panel, a configuration of Orolia's SecureSync® modular GPS time server, and an interconnect cable, Skylight opens new possibilities for accurate GPS time.
SecureSync® SAASM combines Orolia’s precision time and frequency technology with secure Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM) based GPS receiver.
