Option cards for time servers
Upgrade your time server to suit your needs
Being modular is what makes Bodet time servers so unique. Buying a time server is a long-term investment for your business, but even so it can be hard to predict what we'll need in 5 or 10 years. This is why we offer modular NTP time servers which by using option cards will evolve with your company.
A modular, upgradeable time server
The modules that we offer will ensure that your Bodet time server will change as your needs do. Our option cards can help to increase your computer network's compatibility in order to ensure time synchronisation and distribution to your company's hardware.
