Product Description

The Brainstorm DXD-16 Universal Clock combines PTP, GPS and legacy Sync to keep traditional audio/video equipment and the IP network in perfect sync, making it truly universal.

IEEE 1588 NETWORK SYNC

The PTP module supports PTP v2, PTP v1 (Dante) and gPTP (AVB). The DXD-16 can be either a PTP Grandmaster, slave or Boundary Clock. Precision Time Protocol (PTP) has been broadly adopted as the network synchronizing standard, which means that the DXD-16 can work in a number of systems. Several PTP profiles are included: AES67, SMPTE 2059 and gPTP.

As a Boundary Clock, the DXD-16 can follow an external Grandmaster on one of its attached networks, synchronize its internal clocks to that Grandmaster, and distribute the same Grandmaster time in its role as PTP master to the remaining attached networks. Alternatively it can itself fulfill the function of Grandmaster and be PTP master on all attached networks.

Four Gigabit Ethernet ports (RJ45) are available. The different ports can be used independently or as primary and secondary pairs. Each network connector supports an electrically and logically independent network, with the DXD-16 acting as a PTP timing bridge. The DXD-16 is not a network switch, and for security reasons, no information flows from any network port to any other.

AUTO FAIL-OVER

When using an external reference, a second source can be connected as fallback in case of failure. If the external reference becomes unusable, the DXD-16 continues generating, locked either to the alternate source or to the internal oscillator and re-locks to the reference when it reappears. These transitions occur smoothly and gradually with no sync shock to the system.

BATTERY BACKUP

An internal backup clock (RTC) is powered by an on-board battery to keep it running while power is off.

POWER REDUNDANCY

An internal 100-240 VAC power supply is provided as is a DC input for an external 12VDC source. The unit can operate with either of these power sources and either can act as a back-up for the other with auto switch-over in the event of a failure.

ALARM AND REMOTE

GPIO inputs (3) and outputs (3) are included. All functions and settings can be monitored and altered via a web browser.
