Connecting the external time synchronization adapter
For the capture adapters for LiveCapture that support the Precision Time Protocol (PTP), a time synchronization adapter is included with your adapter. One end of the time synchronization adapter is connected to the external time synchronization connector on the capture adapter; the other end of the time synchronization adapter is connected to your PTP source via an Ethernet or GPS connection (blue cable).
NOTE: For instructions on manually enabling PTP support on your Capture Engine, see Enabling PTP support for capture adapters.
