NTP Clock Systems
Network clocks that follow your organisation’s NTP time server over Ethernet / LAN — centrally managed time for IT-run campuses.
How it works
In an NTP clock system each clock is connected to your Local Area Network and periodically requests time from an NTP (Network Time Protocol) server — your own server, a GPS-referenced network time server, or a permitted public source.
Because the same server feeds every clock and every computer, displays, PCs, CCTV and access-control logs all share one time reference. PoE variants receive power and time over a single cable.
Architecture
Time server
Your NTP server (optionally GPS-referenced) is the master time source.
LAN / PoE switch
Clocks connect over standard Ethernet; PoE switches can also power them.
NTP clocks
Each clock synchronises automatically and displays the same time.

Products
Configured to order. NTP Clock Systems are specified for each project — share your requirement and our engineers will recommend the right clocks, master equipment and wiring.
Request ConsultationFrequently asked questions
Do NTP clocks need internet?
No — they need a reachable NTP server on your network. That can be an internal server.
What is PoE?
Power over Ethernet: the clock receives power and network connectivity over one Ethernet cable from a PoE switch.
Are NTP clocks available off the shelf?
NTP and PoE clocks are configured per project. Request a consultation and our engineers will propose the right models.
