White-Rabbit -> Switch
White Rabbit Switch (WRS) is the key component of the White Rabbit
System that provides precision timing and high synchronization in an
Ethernet-based network.
The WRS-3/18 version is a standalone version for 18 SFP connectors. The
WRS distributes the clock of a WRS master (sometime itself) to all the
nodes in the network
using a hierarchical architecture.
