9300 Series Precision Time Server
Today’s network and computer systems require time-sensitive data for such tasks
as logging events, records management, network optimization and troubleshooting,
and synchronizing operations. Spectracom’s NetClock delivers
worldwide, split-second timing with the highest security, reliability, and ease
of management for applications in commercial enterprises, public safety and government agencies ,and for military networks (through the SAASM GPS receiver option).

Enhanced security features ensure operational integrity and can be enabled or disabled based on your needs. These features include remote login and file transfer capabilities, providing the utmost security using industry standard interfaces.
The simplicity of installation, ease of management, and reliable operation of the NetCloc reduces the cost of network administration. It includes full SNMP capability, support for enterprise directory servers to authenticate users, internal and external logging and monitoring of error messages through Syslog, DHCP for installation convenience, and IPv4/IPv6 dual stack for future network modernization.
Enhanced reliability features include optional oven-stabilized crystal oscillators (OCXO) and Rubidium oscillators to maintain timing if the GPS reference is lost. They also provide stable 10 MHz and 1PPS outputs for communications systems, as well as IRIG timecodes for legacy equipment. An optional dial-out modem provides back-up to GPS or functions as the primary reference for disaster recovery. NTP Peering allows for redundancy when multiple NetClock systems are deployed.
The NetClock can track up to twelve GPS satellites simultaneously, providing highly accurate timing by synchronizing to the satellites’ atomic clocks. A secure GPS receiver is available for SAASM applications as is required under the 2003 Joint Chiefs of Staff Instructions: Master Positioning, Navigation, and Timing Plan (CJCSI 6130.01C: Enclosure E).
Security Hardened Network Appliances
With an increasing concern about cyber security, critical network devices, such as time servers, need to be designed to be free from attacks from external and internal threats. NetClock time servers integrate best practices for security hardened network appliances including SSL/SSH encryption, logging, and user management. We commonly perform vulnerability scanning to validate the results of our security approach. Contact us with your industry-specific requirements so you can rest assured that the NetClock will enhance your network security not be an exception to it.
SAASM GPS Receiver Option
GPS is an indispensable tool for synchronizing military actions and other timing applications, thanks to the GPS system’s extremely accurate and well-synchronized atomic clocks. However, GPS transmissions are relatively low-power and vulnerable to jamming. They may also be spoofed, a hacking technique in which seemingly legitimate data is faked.
To counter these threats, the Joint Chiefs of Staff have chosen the Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM) as the GPS security architecture. As of October 2006, all newly fielded Department of Defense (DoD) GPS systems must use SAASM-compliant Precise Positioning System (PPS) devices.
A secure GPS receiver is available for SAASM applications as is required under the 2003 Joint Chiefs of Staff Instruction: Master Positioning, Navigation, and Timing Plan (CJCSI 6130.01C: Enclosure E). Learn more about this DoD mandate by reading "Enclosure E" of the document.
NetClock's SAASM option supports the DoD requirement for encrypted GPS.
