Every model in the G0kK-1 Series comes with all the capabilities of Timebeat Enterprise. With Timebeat technology every G0kK-1 can become a PTP+Squared root node providing nanosecond synchronisation which is verifiable in real time.
The G0kK-1 series at a glance:
Huge unicast PTP capacity (>40,000)
Multi-constellation GNSS and OCXO options
Full GNSS tracking system and detailed monitoring metrics
6 network ports with either 1G or 100Gbps
PTP distribution configuration at runtime, never wait to make changes to your sync network again
Quick and easy to install
PTP+Squared is a powerful distribution model which re-imagines how PTP flows through a network. Traditionally PTP is distributed using BMCA (best master clock algorithm) but we believe this to be flawed. PTP+Squared utilises an intelligent mesh model which not only increases synchronisation performance but also provides some key benefits.
Every node dynamically discovers and configures itself to receive time from the best sources in the mesh. Once a node enters the mesh it then obtains the ability to distribute to the mesh as a source. Mesh distribution occurs with near lossless capability making it a seamless scaling mechanism for synchronisation distribution. Due to this mesh system there are some cool things that follow as a result:
As time is propagated from node to node the root distance is increased for every hop (think of
root distance
as cumulative
error, or total time budget)
The cumulative error of the source is used to determine the hop cost
Hop cost is a key determinate of source value (should i sync to this source or an alternative)
Additionally static hop costs can be added (for example if you know there is a fixed error)
This approach ensures that we form a directed acyclic graph #LoopFree
Every G0kK-1 operates as a PTP/PPS Grandmaster or Boundary Clock.
Multiple PTP profiles supported, Multicast, unicast and hybrid modes
supported (with a huge
Unicast capability never seen before).
PTP+Squared root node distribution (have a GMC already, no problem,
no need to replace just
place the G0kK-1 inline as a distribution layer).
UTC verification, monitor and evaluate multiple source inputs and
end points to verify your
UTC.
Deploy as a stand alone system or as a distribution layer to your
current installation.
Multiple build options makes the G0kK-1 Series fit for any
environment from datacentre to base
station.
Linux operating system, this means it can do anything your linux
devices can (seamlessly
slotting into your current infrastructure)
Deploy anywhere and everywhere. The G0kK-1 and G0kK-1 mini cost less
than an annual
adobe photoshop subscription!
>40,000 unicast sessions making it the lowest PTP Unicast to power
available.
GNSS, PTP, PPS, NMEA, NTP, PHC device UTC source inputs.
PPS & PTP UTC source outputs.
Multi-constellation GNSS capabilities, Galileo, GPS, Beidou, Glonass
and more
Timebeat Enterprise software as standard
Up to 5 network ports with 1Gbps or 4x1Gbps & 2x100Gbps.
