    The unit will not respond to IPv4 NTP packets if the reflector is enabled for IPv6. The unit will not respond to IPv6 NTP packets if the reflector is enabled for IPv4. The SyncServer S600 Series implements real-time, hardware-based network packet processing in tandem with accurate hardware based NTP time stamping, general packet limiting and alarming.
  • Page 84: Ntp Packet Reflector

    Chapter 4 Navigation Windows The NTP Reflector is a real-time, hardware-based NTP packet identification and time-stamping engine. The high capacity hardware uses the extremely accurate S600 Series clock to deliver the best possible NTP timestamps. At line speed, NTP client packets are identified, the precise and accurate T2 and T3 time stamps are added and the packets returned to the requesting NTP client, while also bandwidth-limiting all other packets to the CPU.
  • Page 85 Chapter 4 Navigation Windows It is important to note that NTP is UDP/IP and is by nature susceptible to DoS attacks as no TCP/IP connection is required. The Security-Hardening of the line speed NTP Reflector is such that in the event of an NTP DoS attack the NTP packets will not reach the CPU and compromise the server operation.

  • Page 88: Timing - Time Zone Window

    Chapter 4 Navigation Windows Holdover occurs when the input references (GNSS, etc.) are not available and microprocessor is steering the internal oscillator (standard, OCXO, Rubidium). During holdover the clock accumulates error (drifts away from perfect). By adjusting the values you can explore the relationship of holdover in days and clock error for the installed oscillator.

    Antenna Kits Accessories Lightning Arrestor Microsemi offers the lightning arrestor for installations that require antenna coaxial lead-in protection. The lightning arrestor passes DC power and frequencies in the 1.5 GHz range with L1 GNSS antennas. In most installations, the lightning arrestor mounts near the point at which the antenna lead enters the facility.

  • Page 227: Locating The Gnss Antenna

    Appendix C Installing GNSS Antennas GNSS Antenna Installation Developing a Grounding Scheme In addition to determining where to locate and mount the antenna and cabling, you should develop a grounding scheme. The purpose of the grounding scheme is to provide some protection against voltage surges and static discharge. If lightning arrestors are used, they also need to be connected to the perimeter ground system or to the bulkhead entrance panel that is connected to the perimeter ground system.
  • Page 228 Cutting Antenna Cables Microsemi recommends that you coil excess cable to avoid gain mismatch between the GNSS antenna and the GNSS receiver. Coiling the excess cable also allows you to use the factory-installed crimped connector.
  • Page 229 Appendix C Installing GNSS Antennas GNSS Antenna Installation 4. Adhere to local building codes to determine the type and number of fasteners, screws, bolts, etc. that may be required. Note: Follow local building electrical codes when installing the GNSS antenna. Figure C-6.
  • Page 230 2. Connect the ground wire between the lightning arrestor and the proper grounding zone (building ground, master ground bar, or other) for the mounting location. Recommendation: Microsemi does not recommend soldered connections for grounding purposes. All grounding connections should be secured with mechanical clamp connectors.
  • Page 231: Gnss Antenna Installation

    Verify that all input and output cables are properly installed.  Verify that all antenna connectors are secure, tight, and weatherproofed.  Microsemi does not generally recommend the use of GNSS splitters. However, if  one is used, Microsemi recommends the use of GPS L1 1:4 Active Splitter.
