The Tekron PTP Translator from Microchip Technology is a compact DIN-rail mount device that translates Precision Time Protocol (default, power and, telecommunications profiles) to legacy time codes such as IRIG-B, DCF77, or user-defined pulses. It lets you migrate to PTP without having to incur the expense of replacing all equipment that does not support PTP.
