What is PTP?
Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is a protocol used to synchronize clocks throughout a computer network. On a local area network, it achieves clock accuracy in the sub-microsecond range, making it suitable for measurement and control systems. PTP is commonly used in applications like financial trading, telecommunications, and industrial automation where precise time synchronization is critical.
What other technologies are related to PTP?
PTP Competitor Technologies
SyncE
Synchronous Ethernet is a physical layer synchronization method and is therefore a competitor to PTP which is a packet-based synchronization method.
NTP
NTP (Network Time Protocol) is another time synchronization protocol, thus a competitor to PTP.
SNTP
SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) is a simplified version of NTP, and thus a competitor to PTP.
PTP Complementary Technologies
NMOS
NMOS is a suite of standards used for discovery and registration of media devices in IP networks. PTP provides the timing for NMOS devices, therefore it is a complementary technology.
Packet Capture/Analysis Tools
No summary available
Packet capture and analysis tools can be used to analyze PTP traffic, making them a complementary technology.
AES67
AES67 is a standard for audio over IP interoperability. PTP is commonly used to provide the timing and synchronization for AES67 networks, making it a complementary technology.
