TimeProvider 500 (Translator)

TimeProvider 500 (Translator) works with Symmetricom's TimeProvider 5000, TimeHub and SSU-2000 PTP Grandmaster products. 

Devices in an Ethernet network can be synchronized with IEEE 1588-2008 PrecisionTime Protocol, allowing operators to achieve precise frequency at the edge of the network, to maintain and assure service levels supported by traditional TDM networks. 

TimeProvider 500 enables operators to lower operational cost while delivering the same quality of performance by replacing leased T1/E1 lines with Ethernet. TimeProvider 500 has two T1/E1 outputs to synchronize equipment in wireless base stations, PON and DSL street cabinets and remote terminals.
