The preferred tool for installing and maintaining networks with stringent timing and synchronization requirements.
Together with the VIAVI MTS-5800 family, the field-optimized TEM Timing Module (TEM) delivers industry-leading accuracy to field portable timing and synchronisation measurements.
The TEM features a GNSS antenna and a miniature atomic clock (MAC) to ensure nanosecondaccurate measurements even when a satellite signal is not present and the module is running in holdover.
With a MTS 5800 and a TEM, you can:
- Perform one-way delay measurements that help you root out asymmetric network delays
- Precisely measure PTP one-way delay, constant time error (cTE), dynamic time error (dTE) using wander analysis with ITU masks and maximum time error max
- Measure Floor Packet Percentile (FPP) of the Sync PDV packets to ensure PTP PDV is within limits for recovering frequency
- Qualify GNSS antenna installations by evaluating satellite signal strength and viewing 360° sky plot either instantly or over a 24 hour period
- Troubleshoot the accuracy of equipment 1 PPS output signals with 1 PPS wander analysis
- Measure T1 and E1 jitter and wander
- Measure PTP Frequency accuracy using a Floor Package Percentile (FPP) analysis
