DuraTime Wirelessly Synchronize Clocks Across the Entire Campus

In the 22nd century, accurate clocks are more important than ever. Inaccurate clocks can have a negative impact on the overall image of the university. Students may be late for class due to inaccurate university time displays. This problem is compounded when time displays differ between buildings on campus. Older, wired clock systems can be expensive and difficult to maintain over the entire campus.

The DuraTime Synchronized Clock System first obtains accurate time from the world time standard (atomic clock).   The time may be obtained using the integrated network time receiver (NTP), or from an optional GPS time receiver.  Both methods may be used simultaneously, providing a redundant time acquisition system.   The correct time is then sent over a secure, encrypted, multi-path wireless network to all clocks throughout the facility or campus.

The DuraTime system allows multiple, simultaneous master clocks for the highest reliability.
