ESE ES-185F GPS Master Clock / Time Code Generator w/ Option NTP6 / NTP Time Server

The ESE ES-185F/NTP6 is a versatile GPS Master Clock, Time Code Generator, and NTP Time Server designed for precise timekeeping in various applications. It acquires accurate time and date information from Global Positioning System satellites, displaying nine digits of time, including Day of Year, Hour, Minute, and Second. The ES-185F/NTP6 generates multiple time codes, such as SMPTE/EBU LTC, ESE-TC90/TC89, ASCII (RS-232C & USB), IRIG-B, and a 1PPS signal, facilitating seamless integration with computers, automation, and clock systems. Equipped with a 12-channel receiver that tracks up to twelve satellites simultaneously, the unit ensures accurate time data with an impressive precision of better than 40 nanoseconds. It features a self-setting mechanism and includes an internal Coin Cell battery to back up the GPS receiver time, ensuring reliable operation even during power interruptions.
