Acutime 2000
GPS Smart Antenna for Precise Timing and Synchronization
™
Key Features
Trimble’s new Acutime 2000
GPS smart antenna marks the
integration of the latest GPS
technology into a rugged self-
contained unit that enables easy
integration into any system.
The Acutime 2000 is a pole-
mounted GPS receiver and
antenna in an environmentally
sealed enclosure. The Acutime
2000’s design continues
Trimble’s line of GPS smart
antennas, which have been in
production since 1991. It is the
perfect solution for precise tim-
ing and synchronization of
wireless voice and data networks
and provides a cost-effective and
independent timing source for
any application.
• Timing pulse synchro-
nized to within ±100
nanoseconds (one
sigma) of UTC
• Operating temp -40° to
+85° C
• Option of RS-422/485
or RS-232 interface
• Standard 8-channel or
premium 12-channel
option
Once power is applied, the
Acutime 2000 automatically
tracks satellites and surveys its
position to within meters. It

and data networks.
time mode and generates a
pulse-per-second (PPS) output
synchronized to UTC within
±100 nanoseconds (one sigma),
outputting a time tag for each
pulse. The Acutime 2000’s
T-RAIM (Time-Receiver
Autonomous Integrity Monitor)
algorithm ensures PPS integrity.
Designed for long-term
reliability, the Acutime 2000
GPS smart antenna is water-
resistant and weatherproof, and
has a rounded top that facili-
tates run-off from the elements.
