    NTP server output as level 15 is the last limit of stratum as per NTP standard.  Stratum of masTER T-Sync MTS200 under Unlock conditions should be such that last NTP client in hierarchical arrangement should be at stratum level 15 so that can be continuously synchronized with its superior level NTP source device.
