RUGGEDCOM RMC8000

The RUGGEDCOM RMC8388 is a utility-grade time converter that has been specifically designed to operate in electrically harsh and climatically demanding environments. The RUGGEDCOM RMC8388 offers time conversion between IRIG-B and IEEE 1588. Simple and intuitive network based configuration using either the built in Web or Telnet server makes setup a breeze.

The RUGGEDCOM RMC8388 offers the following time conversion modes:
IEEE 1588 -> IRIG-B TTL, IRIG-B AM and PPS

Features

• IRIG-B Formats Supported: B000 – B007, B120 – B127
• Ethernet Ports Options: 100TX (RJ45) or 100FX (LC)
• PPx: Allows a configurable PPS timer to trigger a signal every x seconds up to once in 24 hours
• Provides flexible power supply options for most mains voltages including 24 VDC and 48 VDC input
• For use at ambient temperatures from –40 °C to +85 °C without the use of fans
• Multiple management interfaces : Web-based, Telnet, CLI management interfaces

This product helps lower cabling and maintenance costs by allowing customers to migrate to Ethernet thereby allowing modernization of the data and timing network but still accommodating IRIG-B based source or destination. It is compatible with existing RUGGEDCOM timing solutions such as the RSG2288 and the RSG2488.

Product versions

RUGGEDCOM RMC8388

• Serial device server with 128-bit encryption

RUGGEDCOM RMC8388NC

• Serial device server with 56-bit encryption

The RUGGEDCOM RMC8388 enables legacy IEDs to connect to an existing modern Ethernet network supporting IEEE 1588v2 without the need for a separate PPS time synchronization network.
