Newest Products
|
|
|
|
The newest
addition to the Spectrum line of products is the TM-4M Time & Frequency
System. Incorporating a TM-4/OEM™ and a rechargeable lead-acid battery,
the TM-4M allows for both portable service and the confidence of continued
operation during power failures. In addition, the TM-4M Time & Frequency
System offers six user-selectable outputs on the front panel, including PPS, 10
MHz and any of the standard outputs mentioned above. It is also optionally rack
mountable and is available without the backup battery for those who would like
the multiple outputs from the TM-4 without extra cables or adapters. Spectrum
will offer a Rubidium version of this product in Q2 of 2007.

DA 1:54
Distribution Amplifier
|
|
|
The DA 1:54
Analog Distribution Amplifier distributes analog signals to as many as 54
destinations at once. With three separate channels for different signals, it is
perfect for laboratories and R&D houses that need consistent, high-quality
reference signals at multiple locations.

Intelligent
Reference/TM-4™ and TM-4/OEM™
|
|
The Intelligent
Reference/TM-4™ and TM-4/OEM™ are GPS disciplined time and
frequency references that feature near-Rubidium accuracy and holdover
characteristics while retaining the economy and low phase-noise of quartz-based
products. The TM-4 incorporates very advanced technology, including our
Intelligent Holdover™ function, simultaneous Event Time Tag (ETT)
and Programmed Output Pulse (POP) capability,
FastStart™ technology and an optional wide-range filtered timing
pulse (synchronous to PPS), with ultra-low jitter. Other optional features
include a GPS-locked wide-range frequency synthesizer, a super low power OCXO,
and a low cost, power-conserving TCVCXO. The Intelligent
Reference/TM-4™ is Stratum-1 compliant, is highly customizable and
is available with or without case.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The versatile Intelligent
Reference/TM-4D™ incorporates our TM-4/OEM™ and takes time and
frequency references to a whole new level. Integrating a signal generator with
both digital and analog distribution amplifiers, the TM-4D generates and
distributes timing signals, time code, and both digital and analog signals all
in one product. The TM-4D can also be optionally configured to distribute
externally-supplied signals.

D/A-1
Digital and Analog
Distribution Amplifier
|
|
The D/A-1 is a
versatile distribution amplifier for both analog and digital signals. Built
upon the TM-4D chassis but without an internal signal generator, it will
distribute four independent digital signals to as many as 24 outputs and two
different analog signals to as many as 16 outputs. The D/A-1 features signal
indicators for all six amplifier stages, is DC powered and occupies 1U of rack
space.

GPS Antennas and Mounts
|
|
Spectrum offers a wide selection of GPS
antennas and mounts, suitable for most every purpose. Choices include fixed
tower or mast-mount antennas, super low power antennas, mobile antennas, and
timing antennas that incorporate highly effective terrestrial interference
filtering. There are also a number of mounting options from which to
choose.
