The Hoptroff Time Feed provides secure precision timing protocol to your network via terrestrial connections. With more than 15 POPs worldwide, we can provide direct fibre connectivity to major datacentres in the USA, Asia, UK and EU, and are likely in the same datacentre as most businesses already.
When you connect to our Time Feed, you gain access to our Timing Hubs located in the United States, Europe and Asia. You can choose to fetch time from one, two or more. These Timing hubs are connected to three official terrestrial sources like NIST and RISE, and additional to that, they also receive time from four satellite systems.
Our Timing Hubs adhere to ISO 27001, following Zero-Trust architecture, and undergo independent annual certification, making them suitable for emergency services, mission-critical applications, and highly regulated industries such as finance, insurance, gaming, and gambling.

Hoptroff Time Suite® Enterprise is a software that enables systems engineers, systems administrators, network operations engineers, devops, and database administrators to manage system time on Linux and Windows networks.
Deploying Hoptroff Time Suite® Enterprise, you can easily monitor, analyse, track and report on timing issues, making it easier to identify and troubleshoot issues, and set thresholds for alerts and an alerting method (syslog, SNMP or email). Hoptroff Time Suite® Enterprise tracks the upstream sources' accuracy, jitter, and UTC offsets to determine the sharpest, most precise time up to 100ns accuracy.
