For central topologies and distribution below 5 m we recommend using FireWire as system connection between the modules as it can handle data, power and sync
For a distribution over 5 m QuantumX and SomatXR modules offer a synchronization as well via Ethernet PTPv2 (IEE1588:2008). In an Ethernet topology each module has to be powered separately as only data and sync can be handled via Ethernet.
Both topology options (FireWire and Ethernet PTP) can also be combined.
