Benefits
Libera Sync assures clock signal distribution with femtosecond (fs) added jitter and fiber drift compensation. It is suitable for synchrotron light source machines.
Femtosecond precision
- excellent synchronization of geographically distributed systems
Simple commissioning and use
- quick set-up and minimal start-up tuning
- remote monitoring of Libera Sync operation
- easily integrated into the Control System
- minimal requirements for environmental stability and conditions
Compensation of fiber drifts
- enables long-term link stability
- point-to-point distance (optical fiber pair length): up to ~1km (depending on the optical fiber used)
Compact, robust and high-performance device
- small dimension: standard form factor 1U 19”
- low power consumption – with each device consuming less than 30 W
- Number of reference outputs on receiver side: 2
Remote diagnostics
- operation of Transmitter and Receiver unit can be remotely monitored
Range of clock frequencies supported by Libera Sync
- 350 MHz - 520 MHz
Added jitter performance
- Added jitter: typically 30 fs RMS, guaranteed 50 fs RMS (100 Hz – 10 MHz) @ 500 MHz
Long-term drift performance
- Long-term drift (24h, T = T0 ±2.5C) typically 150 fs RMS, 500 fs RMS guaranteed @ 300 m optical fiber length
