Timing Link
WAVE – Timing Link
Precision frequency and time distribution over fiber
- Wide range RF transfer (10 MHz – 10 GHz)
- Stability better than state-of-the-art masers
- Modular & configurable
- Synchronous time signals (1PPS, IRIG & NTP)
Description
WAVE Link allows precise transmission of frequency and time signals to kilometer distances using optical fibers with stability better than state-of-the-art masers.
It consist of a transmitter (TX) and a receiver (RX) unit, both equipped with advanced Cycle electro-optical modulation and fiber optic delay stabilization technology.
Its modular design enables application-specific configurations, including stable 1PPS, IRIG & NTP transfer, time interval counters, phase/frequency meters, and GNSS tracking and referencing.
Applications
- GPS distribution
- Maser distribution
- Atomic clock distribution
- Particle accelerators
