Precision Time Protocol (PTP)
-
Assisted partial timing support (APTS) over Precision Time Protocol (ACX7024)—Assisted partial timing support (APTS) is a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) backed by Precision Time Protocol (PTP), which delivers accurate timing and synchronization in mobile backhaul networks. ACX7024 supports APTS.
-
Support for configurable hold over time interval (ACX7024)—In an APTS setup when both GNSS and the PTP timing reference are lost or inactive, then the internal clock oscillator can provide synchronization. This functionality is enabled by default with a duration of 240 minutes. To configure this functionality, set the required duration in the newly introduced
set protocols ptp holdover-in-spec-duration
command on ACX7024.[See ptp.]
