WHY IS ACCURATE TIME IMPORTANT IN SPORTS And LEISURE FACILITIES?

Sports centers, aquatic facilities, and fitness clubs rely on precise timekeeping to ensure a smooth and structured operation. Athletes, staff, and visitors all depend on accurate time displays for training, competition, and facility scheduling. Various systems—such as scoreboards, lighting controls, access systems, and public address setups—must work in sync to deliver a seamless experience. A unified and reliable time source ensures everything runs on time, every time.

What are the benefits of accurate time?

Accurate and synchronized timekeeping ensures training sessions, events, and bookings run precisely to schedule.
Helps guests, athletes, and staff stay punctual across gyms, pools, and sports halls.
Easily synchronized via NTP or GNSS (GPS/GLONASS) to ensure reliable operation across all areas.
Scalable for any facility size—from single fitness centers to large multi-site complexes.
Maintenance-free operation with customizable displays and optional stopwatch or countdown features.

What are the MOBATIME Solutions to provide accurate Time for Sports and Leisure Facilities

1. NTP Synchronization for Network Systems

Utilizing Network Time Protocol (NTP) all the sub system such as CCTV, IT, Access Control, Car Park, etc. and hundreds / thousands of NTP slave clocks can be synchronized from one timeserver linked to a network.
Through the use of redundant NTP servers, in the event of a GPS failure, an automatic switch between master and slave status can take place that can ensure increased availability and security of the time system.

2. Slave Clocks Synchronization

NTP Network analogue and digital clocks are perfectly suited for the surrounding of schools or universities and can be synchonized with any of our Time server or Master clocks. The clocks set themselves to the correct time automatically and can also be monitored remotely. Connected over the LAN / WAN and powered with POE (Power over Ethernet), these clocks require no additional infrastructure, making the installation inexpensive and allowing for easy repositioning.
Two-Wire clocks, with no need of any adjustments for absolute time on the slave clocks. The self-setting time code is featured with permanent power supply for the analogue clocks. There is no need of additional wiring for power (Digital clocks may require additional power supply). The two-wire installation is simple and cost-effective, with a free topology. Utilizing the self-setting time code, hundrets of clocks can be synchronized from one master clock via a two-wire cable.
