When a clock goes in holdover due to a failed GPS signal, the cause can be range from a failed ground, a delamination of a printed board, a loose connection, a failed antenna head, or interference from a natural source. Correct antenna positioning is vital to timing reliability.

A GPS antenna requires a 360° visibility of the horizon. Roof mounted antenna enable for more accurate GPS clocks since at least three satellites are required to be in view at all times to maintain timing accuracy (typically nanoseconds to UTC). Our antenna designs include this key component. Our technicians ensure the optimal location for all elements of the antenna installation.

Field Services can retrofit your new GPS antenna using your existing hardware.

GPS Glossary of Terms

In today’s rapidly evolving telecommunications, cable, and utility industries, precision and reliability are paramount. Ensuring accurate timing and synchronization is crucial for optimizing network performance and maintaining seamless operations. At Syncworks, we understand the critical role that GPS antenna installations play in achieving these goals. That’s why we offer a comprehensive turnkey solution designed to meet the needs of engineers responsible for timing in their networks.
