Product Announcement: Strongest Network Time Synchronization Solution on the Market


Meinberg officially introduces it's brand new PTP / NTP / SyncE module, the HPS-100.

Bad Pyrmont, June 8, 2016 - Meinberg manufacturer of the most powerful time and frequency synchronization solutions, is proud to announce the availability of Meinberg's new network time sync module generation, which provides a future-proof platform for your IEEE 1588 / SyncE / Carrier Grade NTP infrastructure.

The HPS-100 offers the ability to support up to 2048 PTP-Clients in Unicast Mode (at 128 Sync and Delay Requests per second), as well as more than 250.000 Delay Requests per second in Multicast or Hybrid mode due to a powerful FPGA-based Packet Generator engine. The card is equipped with a 1GE interface as an RJ45/SFP combo port and 2 SMA outputs for configurable pulse outputs like 1-PPS, 10 MHz and 2.048 MHz.The HPS-100 can be configured to run in Master or Slave mode. It supports all major PTP profiles: Default, Power, Telecom (Frequency and Phase profiles), SMPTE, AES67/RAVENNA or IEEE 802.1AS profile. This makes it the most flexible and interoperable PTP solution on the market, suitable for a wide range of applications.

The module additionally also offers an NTP Server mode with 10 ns accurate time stamps due to a hardware time stamping NTP engine.

For providing a cost effective solution, a flexible license model is available to select the Client capacity power that is needed for a certain application.

A lot of IEEE 1588 slave devices or NTP clients from different market segments can be synchronized, for example eNodeBs for LTE base stations, Linux servers with hardware-assisted time stamping support for high-frequency trading applications, IEEE 1588 compatible IEDs in Smart Grid environments or IP-interconnected Audio / Video devices in broadcast studios. The Synchronous Ethernet function provides a highly stable frequency transport over Ethernet networks. The card supports to either use an incoming SyncE signal from the network as a source or generate SyncE as a Master.

The HPS-100 module is compatible with Meinberg's Intelligent Modular Synchronization (IMS) platform, which is famous for it's high level of scalability, flexibility, versatility and reliability. The modular design of Meinberg's IMS systems allows features like field-replacement and hot-swap capabilities for I/O and power supply modules. This concept ensures future-proofness and expandability by allowing to add or replace modules when new technologies or interfaces are required.
