Introduction

Data Sheet

GPSdome Anti-Jammer

GPSdome is a small-sized, add-on device that provides protection against GPS jamming, ensuring continuity of autonomous navigation and operation during jamming conditions. No other solution that offers such protection is as small, light, affordable or as easily installed as GPSdome.

 

The Model 9483 NENA-compliant GPS master clock continues Spectracom's legacy of bringing essential time synchronization to public safety answering points (PSAPs) and other emergency and command and control systems.

More than 4,500 PSAPs across North America trust a NetClock master clock / time server to validate 911 event records, improve response times and facilitate interoperability with Legally Traceable Time®. The latest NetClocks are easier than ever to install and manage while maintaining strict compliance to the North American National Emergency Number Association’s (NENA) Master Clock Standard #04-002. Features support Next-Generation 911 initiatives and has been tested against NENA’s Security for Next Generation 9-1-1 Standard #075-001.

NetClock GPS NTP Server

Spectracom’s NetClock Model 9489 delivers worldwide, split-second timing for an NTP network with the highest security, reliability, and ease of management. It is designed for applications requiring an affordable but state-of-the-art GPS NTP server.

For today’s network and computer systems that require time-sensitive data for such tasks as logging events, records management, network optimization and troubleshooting, and synchronizing operations, we offer our high performance NTP server technology in this specific NetClock model, and as a direct replacement for previous generation models: 8189, 9189, 9289, and 9389.

Epsilon EC-20S GPS Clock

High-performance GPS Clocks are designed to exceed digital TV, digital Radio, 4G base stations, satcom time and frequency synchronization requirements.

Epsilon Clocks provide accurate and stable time and frequency signals for your high-performance synchronization application. The unit’s optimized architecture is well-suited to transmitter synchronization of digital broadcast signals (DVB-T/T2, T-DMB, DAB or DRM) in Single Frequency Networks (SFN) modes: the high port density allows to synchronize many emitters simultaneously on the same site.

Epsilon SAS Switch & Amplifier System

SAS-E is a high performance, highly manageable and reliable solution for distributing time and frequency signals for satcom, digital TV or audio broadcast, microwave links, satellite ground stations applications.

The Epsilon™ Switch and Amplifier System (SAS-E) provides a cost effective way to extend distribution of time and frequency signals (pulse, low phase noise frequency signal, Time of Day), as a signal amplifier. Thanks to analog amplification, SAS-E adds very little phase noise to the input frequency and ensures high RF isolation. It is therefore suitable for reference frequency distribution towards transmitters, up-converters, micro-wave links. Pulse regeneration is transparent to pulse duration and period: SAS-E is therefore suitable for distribution of any pulse encoded signal like 1 pps, DCLS IRIG, etc.

The SecureSync® platform was designed for the rigors of time and frequency synchronization For Land Mobile Radio.

SecureSync® combines Orolia’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 for Public Safety LMR, Military, and commercial applications.
