GMR5000High-Precision, Multi-Function NTP & PTP Master Clock

1 in (2.5 cm) 13-Digit LED Display

GMR5000 Master Clock
  • Mission-critical Stratum 1 timing solution
  • Capability of synchronizing to GPS, GNSS, IRIG-B, or PTP reference
  • High-stability oscillator options available including Rubidium Holdover
  • Internal-disciplined high-stability oscillator options allow for critical holdover resiliency
  • Optional modules provide flexible input/output signal support
  • SNMP v3 with custom MIB
  • Supports enterprise-grade PTP/NTP server application
  • Backward compatible with legacy signals

GMR5000 Base Model

The GMR5000 is a master clock that can reference a variety of timing sources and provide a range of outputs including NTP, PTP, SMPTE, and IRIG-B. The internal modular design allows the unit to be factory-configured per the user's requirements. The base model includes both NTP server and client functionality compatible with IPv4/IPv6 networks and offers AES 256 SSH encryption for secure communications.

Optionally, the device can act as a IEEE1588v2 PTP grandmaster or slave clock, time code generator, NENA time server, frequency generator, and more. Optionally, an OCXO or Rubidium oscillator enhances holdover stability to minimize timing drift.

A recent update to many network security monitoring platforms incorrectly identifies many Masterclock network devices as having a critical vulnerability to a set of attack vectors called Ripple20, attributed to the Treck TCP/IP stack. The vulnerabilities are present in a widely-used TCP/IP stack from Treck, Inc. and affect hundreds of millions of devices of all types around the world where vendors utilized this stack in their embedded systems. Masterclock devices do not use the Treck TCP/IP stack and the fingerprinting methodology deployed by the scans provides a false positive.
