Abstract

This paper quantifies the ldquo1 mus-conformrdquo line-length of the Transparent Clock Mechanism of peer-to-peer Precision Time Protocol (PTP Version 2), i.e. the number of elements that stay within the plusmn1 mus sync error tolerance, for crystal oscillator output frequencies of 100 MHz, 250 MHz, 500 MHz and 1 GHz, i.e. for time quantization errors of 10 ns, 4 ns, 2 ns and 1 ns.
