Radio 72 MHz Wireless Synchronized Clocks

The Primex Sync Radio 72 MHz technology features a strong, dedicated radio transmission channel that can reach far and wide across large campuses. The radio 72 MHz signal doesn't rely on Bluetooth® or Wi-Fi channels, which are typically noisy and come with an increased chance of signal interference. 

Plus, the Primex Sync Radio 72 MHz technology is an engineered solution, which involves in-house Primex engineers who review facility floor plans to determine the equipment necessary that will guarantee synchronized time. Primex will provide signal repeaters at no additional charge if necessary.

Primex Sync Radio 72 MHz synchronized time features the latest wireless technology, a guaranteed time solution, and a clutter-free, wireless look. There is a right Primex Sync Radio 72 MHz solution for any sized facility with any number of buildings — without having install a burdensome and disruptive wired infrastructure.

Plus, 72 MHz features a longer wavelength compared to other frequencies, which makes this time signal stronger and able to better penetrate solid building materials. The 72 MHz frequency operates on a less-congested frequency than other usual radio frequencies (560 – 470 MHz and 900 MHz) used for radios, TV, and medical systems.

Primex Sync offers 1-watt, 5-watt, and 30-watt 72 MHz transmitters to ensure any size school, hospital, business, or facility receives synchronized time. A larger footprint facility may require a higher wattage transmitter, which can send a stronger signal to better penetrate more building materials and reach further corners of a campus.        

The Primex Sync Radio 72 MHz wireless clock system does not use a master clock. A Primex Sync transmitter acquires time through GPS or a Network Time Protocol server before sending signal to all clocks throughout a building or campus. This 72 MHz radio frequency is more reliable than a single-sourced master clock due to its network connectivity and guaranteed time coverage.

Atomic clocks are controlled by the WWVB radio frequency signal, meaning clocks located in basements or buildings with thick walls may have trouble receiving the signal. A Primex Sync Radio 72 MHz transmitter is located on campus, reducing the signal travel distance from the transmitter to each clock. The Primex Sync Radio 72 MHz is an engineered solution that guarantees wireless synchronized time.

Yes, all Primex clocks update automatically for daylight saving time (DST) shifts every spring and fall.
