Precision Time Protocol Training, IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP)
Precision Time Protocol Training, IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is a 2-day training course covers the details of IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP).
Real-time critical systems are used for time, phase and frequency synchronization within broadcast, fast trading finance, power, telecom and other industrial networks.
The flexible design of PTP systems, which enables them to solve sync problems within diverse applications and industries, means that they can be exceptionally complex.
