The GPS8 Plus is a multi-output precision time and frequency standard that uses the Global Positioning System (GPS) to steer and hold an internal oscillator and clock system precisely on time. It is designed for use in telecommunications, power utility, and military communication applications. Time and frequency information is maintained to high accuracy by the internal oscillator even if no satellites can be tracked. Available oscillator options include Rubidium, OCXO, or TCXO.
