WHITE RABBIT Z16: Your Reliable and Precise Time Fan-Out Solution

The WR-Z16 offers a robust solution for White Rabbit distribution on 1G Ethernet networks, serving as the cornerstone for the new IEEE-1588-2019 High Accuracy Default profile. This standalone device features 16 SFP connectors, delivering sub-nanosecond accuracy time over plug-and-play optical fiber links.

With precise IEEE 1588-2008 (PTP) support across all optical interfaces and NTP interoperability, the WR-Z16 ensures accurate time synchronization. It also provides picosecond-level frequency distribution through a fully digital clock. Built-in failover mechanisms, combining multi-source redundancy and holdover capabilities, guarantee uninterrupted operation and precise timing source monitoring.
