WR clock tests according to G.8262 using SyncE tester.

The tests were performed with Paragon-X, made available to CERN by Calnex, to compare WR L1 syntonization with SyncE characteristics, the results are expected to be potentially useful/interesting for P1588 High Accuracy work.

WR proposed to be included into PTPv3

ISPCS2012 conference is the PTP conference. Since WR extends PTP, it is very important for the project. At the conference, WR was very visible thanks to as many as 3 WR-related regular papers which were presented and our participation in the PlugFest.

Temperature tests in an environmental chamber performed

White Rabbit (WR) is designed to compensate changes of the temperature of the physical medium (e.g. fiber). It has been tested and proven that such a compensation works (here) . However, since WR was presented to ITU-T in March 2012, the influence of WR devices’ temperature variation on the
