RELIABILITY IN A WHITE RABBIT NETWORK
Autors: Maciej Lipinski, Javier Serrano, Tomasz Włostowski, CERN, Geneva, SwitzerlandCesar Prados, GSI, Darmstadt, Germany Abstract: White Rabbit (WR) is a time-deterministic, low-latency Ethernet-based network which enables transparent, subns accuracy timing distribution. It is being developed to replace the General Machine Timing (GMT) system currently used at CERN and will become the foundation for the control…

White Rabbit: a PTP Application for Robust Sub-nanosecond Synchronization
Authors: Maciej Lipinski, Tomasz Włostowski, Javier Serrano, Pablo Alvarez – CERN, Geneva Abstract: This article describes time distribution in a White Rabbit Network. We start by presenting a short overview of the White Rabbit project explaining its requirements to highlight the importance of the timing aspects of the system. We then introduce the technologies used…
