xFalcon-LRX

Outdoor Edge PTP Grandmaster

The xFalcon-LRX is a highly resilient IP68 outdoor PoE powered Time Synchronization device with an integrated GNSS receiver and antenna. By design it simplifies the delivery of high-precision GNSS timing services for RAN and private mobile networks.

To simplify the setup of a new GNSS timing service installation, the xFalcon-LRX is designed for easy rooftop installation on buildings. It requires only a single PoE Ethernet cable for power, which also seamlessly delivers time synchronization services to the network.
