N3100-4C

5G Timing Adapter

  • 4 x 10/25G SFP28 ports
  • Integrate all time synchronization function on the adapter
  • Offload PTP processing
  • Supports full SyncE and IEEE 1588v2 (T-GM, T-BC/OC)
  • Integrated Stratum 3E OXCO with Class C timing support
OVERVIEW

The UfiSpace N3100-4C is a 5G timing adapter that delivers accurate and reliable synchronization for COTS (Commercial of the Shelf) servers to address the O-RAN Open Fronthaul requirement.

By offloading the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) stack and servo from the COTS server, the N3100-4C will deliver stringent timing synchronization needed for end-to-end solution in O-RAN infrastructure. Equipped with Stratum 3E OXCO, high performance FPGA and in-house software stack complied with PTP and SyncE standards, N3100-4C provides Class C timing accuracy for various use cases such as 5G O-RAN fronthaul, data centers, High-Frequency Trading (HFT) and industrial automation. With all the software stack running on top of the adapter, it eliminates the extra integration and validation effort and ensures consistent timing performance under heavy DU CPU workload. 

The N3100-4C is future-proofed with Intel E-810 controller, 4x 10GE/25GE interfaces, and multiple timing source including GNSS, 1PPS and 10MHz. It provides full timing features supporting Grand Master (T-GM), Boundary Clock (T-BC), and G8275.1 telecom profile and can fulfill O-RAN defined synchronization topology (LLS C1, C2, C3) requirement.
