H-DC is a low-level service provider integrated between the network and the end points. Based on the last FPGA XZ7 technology H-DC node is able to provide 4 independents physical hardware clocks on four G-mk2 user ports 1 to 4.
H-DC applies Provider Backbone Bridge IEEE 802-1ah-2008 and PBB Traffic Engineering , IEEE 802.1Qay Standards and the Agora’s Dual-profile Clock technology to make the bridge between local Peer-to-Peer systems and Global End-to-End requirements with an unrivaled stability.
More than a Quad boundary clocks node, with its unique place between the network and the end points H-DC is also dedicated to implement at the lowest level all the dedicated services for the most moderns AV protocols as well as adapt the legacy layers to a standardized convergent network.
