Description
Note: This unit has been upgraded with a new, latest generation GPS receiver module from ublox. It is therefore unaffected by the September 18th 2022 week number rollover event that caused most SyncServers to fail to sync to GPS and eventually to show an incorrect date. The new card is good for accurate GPS time and date reception until 2037.
Here's a used (late model from 2016), good condition SyncServer S300 PTP/NTP server that obtains highly accurate and traceable time from the GPS satellite constellation. The unit has the PTP Optional Software installed. This unit has a VFD display that's bright, clear and legible. The photos show the actual item for sale. Note that antenna is not included but I have matched 12V types available and can edit the listing to include one if required. Rack ears are included as shown. For best results the antenna needs to be mounted outside with a complete view of the sky. The unit's password has been reset to the factory defaults (logon admin:symmetricom) ready for your install. This unit is the TCXO version; it does not have a Rubidium oscillator. The installed firmware is the latest available at the time of listing (v2.83.2). The listing comprises the items you see in the images (only). No printed manual is included but a copy may be downloaded from https://www.prostudioconnection.net/2103/SyncServer_S300-S350_User_Manual.pdf . No other cables, documents or accessories are included. Screenshots taken during my testing of the actual item for sale are provided below for your peace of mind. A few nicks and scratches in the paintwork (eg. the rack ears) have been touched up with matching paint with the aim of making the unit look very smart when viewed in a rack at a normal distance.Usually Sells for over $6,000 (plus PTP
Option Charge)

Unmatched High Performance with Unparalleled Flexibility and Security
The S300 has four dedicated and isolated Ethernet ports, one of which is Gigabit Ethernet - more than enough to meet the need of servicing thousands of NTP requests per second while maintaining microsecond caliber timestamp accuracy. Multiple ports provide the flexibility to adapt to different network topologies as networks grow and change. It supports a wide range of network protocols including IPv4 and IPv6, for easy management and seamless integration into your existing and future network. An optional upgrade to IEEE 1588 PTP grandmaster operations with hardware based, nanosecond accurate time stamping is available.
Enhanced Security - Secure and Easy Network Integration and Management
The S300 provides very reliable and secure network synchronization technology by combining multi-port network interfaces with multiple time reference technology and enhanced security protocols. TACACS+, RADIUS, SSL, Autokey, MD5, passwords, access control lists and more are standard for maximum security. All of the expected network management and monitoring protocols are standard in the S300.
Easy To Set Up and Maintain
SyncServers are the easiest to set up and maintain network time servers in the world. The front panel of the SyncServer S300 is designed to quickly bring the server online with a few front panel keystrokes or DHCP. To fully configure the unit, use the very intuitive web interface or the step-by-step wizards for the most common operations.
Redundancy and Time Assurance
The internal modem is standard to connect directly to legal time provided by national time authorities. An optional AM radio is available to synchronize to national time broadcasts, which can be an alternative to GPS when GPS is not viable option.
Assured Perfect Timing
The Stratum 1 level S300 derives extremely accurate time directly from the atomic clocks aboard the GPS satellite system. Reliability is further enhanced via Stratum 2 operation by retrieving time from other user-designated time servers. All SyncServers can be upgraded to an internal Rubidium atomic oscillator to keep the time server accurate if the GPS signal is lost.
Alarm Relays for Monitoring Systems
Aside from extensive software based alarms, the hardware based alarm of the S300 relays further enhance Alarming choices.
Customer Tested Time Server Design
The 5th generation Microsemi SyncServer S300 has decades of design experience behind it. Customer input is evident in every detail. From the front and rear panel design configurations to the state-of-the art web interface, the S300 is unsurpassed in reliability, accuracy, security and ease of use.
Bottom Line
The SyncServer S300 is your answer to bringing perfect timing and therefore the highest performance to your network - securely, reliably and easily.
