Connor-Winfield's GPS Disciplined References

Connor-Winfield's GPS driven clocks are designed specifically for precision timing and synchronization of wireless networks. By combining a GPS receiver with high quality oscillators, Connor-Winfield offers an integrated, cost effective GPS timing module. These modules provide wireless networks the precise timing capabilities needed to optimize the use of assigned radio spectrums across extensive geographic areas.

125 Series Product Comparison

Wi125

The Wi125 is a small OEM surface mount GPS module specifically designed for use in synchronization and timing in WiMax applications. This compact module has an on-board programmable NCO oscillator that outputs a synthesized frequency up to 30 MHz that is steered by a GPS receiver. The self survey mode of operation allows the receiver to enter a position hold mode allowing accurate timing to be continued with only one satellite being tracked.

FTS Series

The FTS125, FTS250 and FTS375 frequency and time standard modules are GPS driven, mixed-signal phase lock loops providing 1PPS CMOS output from a Connor-Winfield GPS timing receiver and generating a 10 MHz CMOS and a 10 MHz SINE output from an intrinsically low jitter voltage controlled crystal oscillator. These modules can lock to a 10 MHz reference derived from the on-board GPS receiver or an external 10 MHz reference or to an external 1 PPS reference. Alarms are provided to indicate Loss-of-Lock, Holdover, and Antenna Fault. The on-board GPS receiver requires an outdoor mounted GPS antenna for best stability and consistent performance.
