GlobalSat - GDO-10
The GlobalSat GDO-10 is an OCXO based GNSS disciplined oscillator designed to provide laboratory grade time and frequency references with GNSS synchronization. It offers a high accuracy 1PPS output and a phase locked 10 MHz square wave output derived from the internal OCXO and a sensitive GNSS receiver that supports GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo. The unit includes a built in +5.0V active antenna power supply to simplify antenna use for reliable signal acquisition in timing critical environments.
As a Plaspy compatible device by design, the GDO-10 can be incorporated into Plaspy managed telemetry and monitoring architectures to expose synchronization status and health metrics. While the GDO-10 is not intended as a vehicle GPS tracker, its precise timing outputs and GNSS lock indicators make it a useful timing endpoint to monitor alongside other assets in Plaspy for centralized operational oversight and reporting.
Key Highlights
- OCXO backbone for strong short term stability with GNSS disciplining for long term accuracy.
- High accuracy 1PPS output suitable for precise timestamping and second level synchronization.
- Phase locked 10 MHz square wave for frequency reference in test and measurement setups.
- Integrated GNSS receiver supporting GPS GLONASS and Galileo with +5V active antenna power.
- Plaspy compatible for integration into telemetry dashboards to track timing health and lock status.
- Intended for lab bench telecom and infrastructure deployments where timing reliability matters.
How It Works with Plaspy
When integrated into a Plaspy monitoring environment the GDO-10 acts as a managed timing endpoint whose status and health can be correlated with other telemetry sources. Plaspy does not change the device outputs but can ingest status information from a monitoring gateway or adapter that reads the GDO-10 signals, letting operations teams monitor timing quality, lock condition, and antenna health alongside other assets.
- Real time visibility into GNSS lock state and synchronization quality as reported to Plaspy.
- Centralized alerts and reporting for timing anomalies and loss of GNSS lock when a monitoring interface is present.
- Correlation of timing health with other monitored assets for operational oversight and troubleshooting.
- Inclusion of the GDO-10 in dashboards and scheduled reports to track timing performance over time.
- Use of Plaspy reporting to support maintenance planning and site level timing audits.
Typical Use Cases
- 5G cellular base station synchronization and timing verification.
- LEO satellite communications where precise timing supports uplink and downlink coordination.
- Laboratory test and measurement as a reference clock for instrumentation and timestamping.
- Production line timing and repeatable test systems requiring stable frequency references.
- Large infrastructure time distribution and monitoring across multiple sites.
Why Choose This Tracker with Plaspy
The GDO-10 is suited to organizations that require a reliable GNSS disciplined timing source and want to include timing health in their centralized monitoring strategy. Its combination of OCXO stability and GNSS disciplining provides consistent timing behavior that can be tracked and reported in Plaspy, helping operations teams maintain visibility over synchronization status alongside other telemetry.
Because the GDO-10 focuses on precision timing rather than vehicle tracking, it is a useful complement to Plaspy for deployments where accurate time and frequency references are essential. Integrating the GDO-10 with Plaspy via a suitable monitoring gateway lets teams view lock status, timing quality, and alarms in the same platform used for broader telemetry and operational monitoring.
