Product Description

The Meinberg LANTIME CPU module transforms a Meinberg Radio Clock into a standalone "ready-to-run" NTP time server for TCP/IP networks, which comes with numerous possibities for management and configuration: web interface (HTTP/HTTPS), text based setup (TELNET/SSH) and SNMP. To transfer files (e.g. Firmware-updates) to and from the device, FTP or SFTP/SCP can be used.

The IP address of the unit can be initially configured by using the front panel buttons of a GPS radio clock or by using a serial terminal connection. Alternatively, an integrated DHCP client allows assigning an IP address automatically. The LANTIME CPU module can handle more than 1500 NTP requests per second, making it the first choice for providing accurate time information to large network with thousands of clients.

When developing the newest version, the main focus was on improvement of stability and security. Not only dealing with symmetric keys, the LANTIME CPU Module NTP server is also capable of using the autokey feature of NTP v4, providing the administrator with an easy way to maintain a reliable time source for large networks.

Of course the LANTIME CPU module comes with the typical flexibility of a Meinberg product, which means a broad range of options and possible customizations, which can meet even very special requirements.
