Pyramid Time Sync Poe Analog 13 Clock

Designed for organizations that demand unwavering time accuracy across every corner of a facility, the Pyramid Time Sync PoE Analog 13 Clock is a powerful centerpiece for scalable timekeeping. This centralized clock distribution hub delivers precise, synchronized time to up to 13 analog clocks through a single Ethernet cable, combining data and power with ease via Power over Ethernet (PoE). By leveraging standard network time protocols, such as NTP and PTP, it aligns all connected clocks to a single source of truth—ensuring consistency for time-stamped logs, attendance, security systems, and operational workflows. Whether you manage a school district, a corporate campus, a hospital, or a manufacturing floor, this solution simplifies deployment, reduces maintenance, and enhances reliability, all while providing a clean, modern aesthetic that blends into any IT-ready environment.

• Precise time synchronization for up to 13 analog clocks via PoE: The Pyramid Time Sync hub distributes a single, accurate master time to every connected clock, dramatically reducing drift and ensuring uniform displays across classrooms, hallways, control rooms, and production lines. With built-in support for standard time protocols, you can pull UTC time from your network or an external time server, delivering sub-millisecond alignment in many installations and maintaining consistent timestamps for system logs, payroll, and security events.
• Durable, industrial-grade design for demanding environments: Built to perform where reliability matters most, this clock distribution hub features a rugged enclosure, robust connectors, and optimized thermal management. Its design minimizes environmental impact on performance, providing dependable operation in classrooms, laboratories, hospitals, and industrial facilities. The clock outputs are engineered for long-term stability, resisting vibration, dust, and incidental contact while maintaining precise signal distribution to each connected analog clock.
• Seamless IT integration and flexible time sources: The system is engineered to work with your existing IT infrastructure. It supports multiple time sources, including NTP, PTP (IEEE 1588), and SNTP, with options to synchronize to local, regional, or global time servers. DHCP or static IP configuration makes deployment straightforward in either dynamic or controlled network environments. Enhanced compatibility with common monitoring and management tools lets your IT team track health, status, and performance from a single console.
• Easy deployment and centralized management: A web-based interface provides quick access to configuration, monitoring, and firmware updates. With clear status indicators and intuitive navigation, you can provision all 13 clock outputs in a few clicks, clone configurations across multiple hubs, and roll out updates without disrupting clock operation. The solution minimizes on-site maintenance, reduces cabling clutter by consolidating power and data into PoE, and supports scalable growth as your timekeeping needs evolve.
• Cost efficiency, reliability, and precise time for critical processes: Time discipline is essential for accurate logs, synchronized attendance systems, and coordinated operations across facilities. By consolidating power delivery and time distribution, the Pyramid Time Sync solution lowers installation costs, reduces the number of required power adapters, and simplifies maintenance routines. The result is improved operational integrity, cleaner installation, and lower total cost of ownership—particularly valuable in education campuses, healthcare facilities, manufacturing plants, and corporate environments where precise timing is critical.

How to install Pyramid Time Sync Poe Analog 13 Clock

• Plan your network layout: Identify the PoE-enabled switch or injector that will provide power and data to the Pyramid Time Sync hub, and map the 13 clock outputs to the clocks in your facility. Ensure that your network can support the required NTP/PTP time sources and that there is reliable network connectivity to the hub.
• Prepare the hardware: Mount the time-sync hub in a secure, accessible location such as a network closet or equipment rack. Verify that there is adequate ventilation and that cables have strain relief to prevent accidental disconnections.
• Connect power and data: Use a PoE-enabled Ethernet cable to connect the hub to a PoE switch or injector. Confirm the connection is active and that the hub receives both data and power over the same cable, which eliminates separate power adapters and reduces cabling clutter.
• Attach the clocks: Connect each analog clock to its designated output on the hub. Follow the installation guidance for your specific clock models to ensure proper signal integrity and compatible voltage levels.
• Configure network time settings: Access the hub’s web-based management interface and specify your preferred time source (NTP, PTP, or SNTP). Set the time zone and daylight saving rules as needed, and configure any desired security settings or user permissions.
• Verify synchronization: After saving the configuration, monitor the status indicators to confirm each clock output is receiving a synchronized signal and that all clocks display the same time. If discrepancies appear, verify cable integrity, network reachability of time servers, and time zone configuration.
• Maintain and update: Periodically check for firmware updates and apply them as recommended. Use the cloning feature to replicate configurations across multiple hubs if you are deploying additional units in other areas of your facility.
