IMS-PSX210
Powerful PTP Module for Modern Bandwidth Requirements
The IMS-PSX210 module for Meinberg’s IMS family of modular time servers is a powerful IEEE1588 PTP solution designed to integrate seamlessly into 10 Gigabit networks conventionally found in high-bandwidth environments such as data centers, broadcasting & media production, telecom and financial networks.
With full support for the IEEE1588 PTP protocol and an extensive range of PTPv2 profiles, the IMS-PSX210 is flawlessly adaptable to any PTP application, operable as a powerful PTP grandmaster drawing accurate time directly from an authoritative source such as GNSS, as a boundary clock for re-distributing time with minimal offsets to downstream devices, or as a bridge device enabling interoperability between discrete PTP networks.
10G Dual Network Interfaces
The IMS-PSX210 features two discrete 10 Gigabit (10GBASE) physical interfaces that allow the module to be connected to two separate subnets and operate as separate clocks with separate configurations in both. The 10GBASE support allows the server to be seamlessly integrated into a 10 Gigabit network without the need for an intermediate switch or router, eliminating an unnecessary PTP hop and potentially increasing the clock accuracy accordingly.
This product is only compatible with Meinberg’s line of modular IMS LANTIME systems.
