    The Precision Time redundancy feature ensures that in the case all possible options to receive GNSS signals from GPS or other constellations are lost, the built-in Rubidium oscillator inside each grandmaster clock provides precise holdover to maintain accuracy of 1.5 milliseconds over a 24-hour period.
