HIGHLIGHTS
HIGH-PERFORMANCE NTP SERVER HIGH ACCURACY
The DTS 4138 can reply to more than 1‘500 The DTS 4138 can receive all GNSS signals
NTP and SNTP requests per second (up to (GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, BeiDou), guarantee-
7‘500 clients depending on NTP client confi- ing utmost accuracy and availability. For GNSS
guration). security, multiple constellations can be used in
parallel.
REDUNDANT LINK
For utmost availability, two DTS 4138 can be LEGACY OUTPUTS
connected to offer redundant master-slave The DTS 4138 supports legacy outputs such
operation with automatic switch over in case as IRIG, DCF, pulse, and frequency.

MOBA-NMS
The DTS 4138.timeserver can be fully
monitored, configured and controlled
using the Mobatime Network Manage-
ment System software (MOBA-NMS).
