<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize a simple and high-reliability clock synchronizing system and a clock synchronizing method which have no need of a multicasting protocol. <P>SOLUTION: The clock synchronizing system uses synchronous packets for a clock synchronizing means between a main apparatus and a remote apparatus for communicating over a network. The main apparatus has a packet sender for generating clock synchronous packets, based on the same clock source, and an interface with the network. The remote apparatus is provided corresponding to the packet sender one to one and has an interface for transmitting or receiving a clock to or from other remote apparatus and an interface with the network. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
