Quarra PTP – 10G

Partner: Artel
Standard 1RU rackmount unit with dual power supplies, configured with 10 Gigabit interfaces

The Quarra range of switches is designed for carrier-class applications where accurate timing and control is required. Designed as a standard 1RU rackmount unit with dual power supplies, the switch is configured with 10 Gigabit interfaces supporting a best-in-class layer 2 IEEE 1588v2 algorithm. A 1pps external reference input from GPS is included as standard. The Quarra switches support IGMP v2/3, QoS, protection switching, VLAN, MEF service delivery, and network OAM.

Features
  • Industry’s most-accurate IEEE 1588 timing and synchronisation for nanosecond-accurate timing.
  • 1pps reference. Network wide synchronisation using IEEE1588.
  • SMPTE standards-based timing
    • ST 2110-10 system timing and definition
    • ST 2059-2 SMPTE profile for use of IEEE-1588 precision time protocol in professional broadcast applications
    • Supports boundary and transparent clock
  • RAVENNA AES67 approved
  • Full management from Web GUI or command line interface. No training required; units can be quickly and easily configured.
  • JSON/RPC control and monitoring
  • Ideal for:
    • Live Video/Audio broadcast/production over IP using IEEE 1588 timing, QoS, and Multicast filtering.
    • Broadcast DTT/DTV IP distribution, using IEEE 1588 timing to replace or backup GPS timing at base stations.
    • Telecoms networks, providing high level of network timing.
    • Financial/trading networks, using our IEEE1588 precise nanosecond time synchronisation.
  • Interfaces:
    • 24 RJ45 ports (10/100/1000Mb/s)
    • 2 SFP+ ports ( 10Gb/s)
