Holdover is more than just a single number. I'd expect something like: The PPS will be within X microseconds for Y hours. It might be that there are two sets of specs, one for a crystal and another for a Rb option. I'd expect the Rb option to have smaller X or longer Y. Most Rb units have an adjustment (screwdriver or voltage) to correct for the local magnetic field. If you have that sort of adjustment voltage, you can easily turn it into a GPSDO. -- These are my opinions, not necessarily my employer's.
