Studio Technologies – Model 5402 Dante Leader Clock with GNSS Synchronization

The Model 5402 provides the PTP v1 (IEEE 1588-2002) compatibility required by Dante. Supports PTP v2 (IEEE 1588-2008) for AES67 applications. Includes an integrated GNSS (satellite) receiver to allow a precise timing reference to be acquired from the four major constellations. A sync input connection allows the Model 5402’s internal oscillator to be synchronized with a variety of external timing and reference signals. A word clock output provides a general-purpose timing reference for use by external devices.
