IE
: Interface Ethernet
The AlVelte Rubidium series “IE” module is a stand alone Ethernet “mini server”.
This unit makes an access to all connected “RUB” modules possible (via our internal bus
connections “TC_link”), thus enabling a configuration of the modules as well as to open a
status monitor. Option “S” includes SNMP functionality. Option “N” includes an NTP time
server, so any reference time base present on the “TC_link” internal bus (for example from a
real-time time code generator or a GPS receiver) can be used as a real time source for the
built-in NTP Time server.

Available options:
IE-C
NTP
Client: The IE module communicates via Ethernet with an NTP server, receives a
time & date reference, and synchronizes this way RUBIDIUM modules.
IE-M
MTDoE: The IE module communicates via Ethernet with MTDoE devices like displays,
studio clocks, and MTD control units. It transfers a time & date reference and MTD
data received via TC_link from an MTD generator.
IE-N
NTP
Server: The IE module becomes a time & date reference for other devices in this
network.
IE-S
SNMP
Agent: The IE module can be used as an SNMP Network Element. You can
easily monitor and control the RUBIDIUM system using centralized network manage-
ment software.
