There were a lot of NTP threads several weeks ago, but I didn't get an answer to my question amongst all of the other chatter.
I'm looking for a device that can receive GPS inside a building without the assistance of an external antenna (Frontier says they no longer allow external antenna), will provide traditional NTP services, and will provide a timing signal that my Metaswitch can work with.
I know that MicroSemi via Symmetricom makes these kinds of devices, but I'm hoping to look at multiple manufacturers and compare.
I have a Symmetricom S250 with the Rb option -- it has an active antenna; while it does *technically* work inside buildings it really needs to be jammed right up against a window to work. In my (top floor in my house) office it gets no reception unless against a window... W
Thanks.
