About this listen
If you’ve ever experienced unexpected PTP behavior, reference mismatches, or unplanned grandmaster changeovers, you know they can disrupt operations and potentially compromise on-air stability.
Even if you haven’t dealt with those problems firsthand, you know they’re a risk when you’re planning a new IP installation, supporting an existing PTP network, or preparing for a phased migration.
On this Leader webinar, you’ll discover practical strategies for deploying and maintaining PTP-based timing infrastructures. Drawing on real-world experience from global installations, Leader experts Steve Holmes and Kevin Salvidge take a deep dive into the common PTP challenges you come up against.
You’ll also find out:
- How and why PTP reference mismatches occur
- What triggers unnecessary grandmaster switching
- How to recognize early warning signs before they escalate into service-affecting problems
- Why telecom-style “main/backup” switching philosophies can introduce risk in broadcast applications, where even the smallest timing disturbance can lead to lip-sync issues, video artifacts, or complete loss of synchronization
- What the recommended design principles for broadcast-focused PTP architectures are, including stable timing hierarchies, controlled changeover procedures, and robust monitoring strategies
- Best practices for ensuring consistent, deterministic synchronization across hybrid SDI/IP environments
