Fibre optics transfers of precise time and ultra-stable optical frequency are gradually becoming part of portfolio of network services of research and educational networks. These national infrastructures very often share fibres with regular data transmission, because of significant share of fibre cost rental on the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). Situation is very similar in the Czech Republic, where there was more than 3000 km of ultra-stable transmissions within Czech e-Infrastructure, which itself runs over about 5800 km of dark fibre lines.

Free-space optical link fro coherent transfer

The dissemination of precise optical frequencies and time has an irreplaceable role in many applications (scientific experiments in time and frequency metrology, security of critical infrastructures, synchronisation of navigation systems, sensors). We must deploy a different transmission type where optical fibre links cannot be used. The paper describes the possible distribution of stable optical frequencies by the free-space optical link between FEEC BUT Brno (responsible for development and operation of FSO units) and ISI CAS CR (responsible for optical laser source, optical fibre links, data processing).
