APX-PGM200 Multi Interface PTP Grandmaster Clock

Product Overview

The APEX APX-PGM200 is an IEEE 1588v2 PTP grandmaster clock that combines a GNSS locked reference with a wide set of time and frequency interfaces, so one unit can feed packet based and legacy synchronization in the same rack.

Networks rarely run on one synchronization method. The APX-PGM200 serves PTP for packet networks and NTP for older devices, while time and frequency outputs cover equipment that still expects a physical reference.

It suits carrier transport, data center fabrics, enterprise networks and industrial sites. Units are configured for the interfaces your project uses before shipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the APX-PGM200 different?

It carries both packet based and physical synchronization interfaces, so mixed environments can share one reference.

Does it support NTP as well as PTP?

Yes. NTP and SNTP are supported for devices that do not run PTP.

Can output interfaces be chosen?

Yes. The interface set is configured for your project before the unit ships.

Is it suitable for data centers?

Yes. It is used where many devices must share one accurate time base.

Why Choose APEX

  • Timing and synchronization configured for your network.
  • Interfaces and profiles set before shipment, with the configuration kept on file.
  • Standards based design for interoperability with carrier and data center equipment.
  • Backed by a 3 year warranty and technical support on link and sync planning.
