Time Creator 1000
Designed to Meet the Demands of High-Performance Cable Networks
Standards compliant DOCSIS Timing Interface (DTI) Server with optional GPS traceability, redundant clock cards, redundant power supplies and an NTP Server option. For carrier grade systems supporting voice and other critical applications high reliability can be achieved by configuring the Time Creator 1000 with redundant power supplies and clock cards for hitless switching. In applications where either stratum-1 traceability is needed for interconnecting sites, interfacing with other carriers, Business Services, location management or Time of Day services, Time Creator 1000 supports optional GPS traceability.
Integrated DOCSIS Timing Interface Server Ensures Frequency & Timestamp Sync
DOCSIS Timing Interface Server capabilities ensure that the M-CMTS core, Edge QAM and upstream are synchronized to nanosecond levels to support the existing DOCSIS requirements for frequency and timestamps that existed in the traditional CMTS. With Time Creator 1000 in an M-CMTS architecture, a cable modem receive its synchronization from the Edge QAM so that it is synchronized to other cable modems to properly transmit to the upstream burst receiver.
Built-in Redundancy for Continuous Operation
With two DTI Servers built into the Time Creator 1000, this unit combines redundant capability with the ease of management provided by a single device and single interface.
