NTS-pico3: TSB Time Server that sends the UTC time reference directly to the network using NTP, PTP, IEE1588, gPTP protocols.

NTS-pico3 is the third generation of Elprom's PICO miniature time servers and sends the UTC time reference directly to the network using NTP, PTP, IEE1588, gPTP protocols. The standard version of the product includes software time stamping, but optional hardware stamping is also available, which improves synchronization accuracy. The NTS-pico3 is equipped with a single 100/10 Mbtps port. This time server is designed for small industrial LANs, features natural air cooling and can operate 24/7. It has a 9-30 VDC power supply and supports crypto-authentication for NTP operations. It comes with a 38dB GNSS antenna and a 30-meter coaxial cable with an SMA terminal. It has an integrated GNSS satellite receiver that includes a TCXO oscillator for short-term holdover. NTS-pico3 features ultra-fast Time To First Fix (TTFF) startup supported by SBAS systems.
