I hear from many vendors and industry colleagues that 'ntp just isn't
suitable for high precision work and anything less than 1-2ms precision
requires ptp or direct connection to gps clock'. I find these numbers
For microsecond accuracy, I would say that NTP needs direct (PPS) connection
What OS are your hosts running? If it's Windows, millisecond, not
microsecond accuracy will be what you can get at best when syncing over the

Gbit and low jitter is not quite compatible: 100 Mbit switches were

I see a common misconception here. Most of the concepts about NTP
can be explained using a common wristwatch.
One is that more frequent checking to a standard keeps the time closer
to the standard. That would be true only if you set your watch to
match the standard each time. NTP does not do

Hi Paul, This is probably going further up the track for you, however, with the
HP c class blades you can use a PCI expansion blade with a serial IO card in
it. The downside is that the expansion blade takes up one bay (to the left of a
half-height blade, or bottom left slot next to a full

But not the same neutrino, since you can only detect the neutrino
after it has collided with something else.
