Frequently Asked Questions
Where do you source your time?
The Hoptroff Timing Hubs source their time from the major GNSS signals and from leading terrestrial time providers such as NIST in the US and RISE in Sweden.
How do you deliver the time?
A client connects to the closest Hoptroff Timing Hub which are located throughout the world. The time is delivered to a customer location over secure network connectivity, usually a Layer 3 or Layer 2 connection, depending on the level of accuracy required. In certain cases, a VPN connection is all that is required.
Where are your timing hubs?
Hoptroff Timing Hubs in London, Tokyo, Sydney, and New York, and will add new locations throughout
What happens your timing hubs lose satellite connection?
Each Hoptroff Timing Hub sources time from three separate satellite constellations. If all of this fails, our resilient terrestrial time feed will continue to deliver time to your network.
What level of network connectivity resiliency can you offer?
We can be as resilient as you need us to be, from a single network connection from one of our Hoptroff Timing Hubs, to multiple and independent layer 2 connections from one or even multiple Hoptroff Timing Hubs.
How do you keep your time feed secure?
Do you offer compliance reporting?
Yes, Hoptroff Compliance offers a rich suite of features for third-party regulatory compliance reporting for MiFID II and CAT NMS. It also stores records for 7 years, as required by certain regulations.
Do you offer monitoring and alerts?
What operating systems do you support?
RHEL 7/8, CentOS 7/8 and Windows Server 2008 R2/2012/2016/2019.
How do you ensure accuracy?
Our software measures any network jitter and corrects it, assuring that the time that left the Hoptroff Timing Hubs is still accurate.
Do you offer NTP or PTP?
