The GPS system is based on atomic clock technology. Each GPS satellite has multiple atomic clocks, synchronized to a ground-based master clock. The GPS clock provides everyone on Earth with access to atomic time standards without needing a local atomic clock. GPS time transfer accuracy is within 40 nanoseconds of UTC. Electronic Clocks – Low […]

Features of GPS NTP Network Time Server Appliances
GPS is increasingly becoming the standard time reference for the synchronization of computers and computer networks. The system itself is an US military satellite system, primarily intended for global positioning and navigation. The system consists of a constellation of 24 orbiting satellites, each carefully positioned to provide global signal coverage. Each satellite has an on-board […]
GPS NTP Network Time Servers
The primary function of the GPS system is to provide a marine navigation and location service to shipping. The system can provide highly accurate positioning information in any location of the surface of the Earth. It does this by employing a constellation of orbiting satellites high above the Earth. Each satellite has a highly accurate […]
GPS Network Time Server For Accurate Network Synchronization
The Global Positioning System’s intended function is to provide a global system for location and navigation. It is primarily aimed at marine navigation, although it is also commonly used in consumer car sat-nav appliances. However, GPS Time Servers are a fundamental part of today’s internet infrastructure and also many corporate networks. They synchronize the processes […]
GPS Clock Synchronization For Computer Networks Using NTP
Computers have real-time-clock chips that utilize the same timing components as wrist watches. This being the case, the time they keep drifts away from the correct time in exactly the same way. This drift can be attributed to slight changes in temperature or manufacturing tolerances. However, they all add up to the time diverging away […]
A Guide To GPS NTP Servers For Network Time Synchronization
A GPS NTP Server is a network appliance designed to obtain very accurate time from the GPS satellite positioning system and synchronize a network of time clients. The device ensures that accurate time is provided to servers, workstations and network infrastructure such as routers and switches. Additionally, many other network devices, such as CCTV cameras, […]
