Overview
The TimeProvider 5000 is a Next Generation Network (NGN) packet-based timing
and frequency device that combines the functionality of a highly-accurate, IEEE
1588 2008 Grand Master Clock and/or NTP server with T1/E1 I/O ports,
1PPS/10MHz and Expansion (DTI) output ports, and 1PPS+TOD inputs. The
TimeProvider 5000, available with either a Quartz or Rubidium oscillator,
incorporates hardware-based time stamping to provide the highest level of timing
and frequency accuracy over a broad range of wireline and wireless application.
The TimeProvider 5000 system consists of a TP5000, a new output expansion shelf
with Gigabit SyncE/PTP, and a new output expansion shelf with E1 and 1PPS+TOD
ports. This document describes the TimeProvider 5000.
The new functionality for the TimeProvider 5000 is NTP server capability, which
supports up to a maximum of 120,000 NTP transactions/second in unicast mode.
