A communication apparatus electrically connected to a first antenna through a first cable includes a second antenna that is substitutable for the first antenna; a first ground portion to which a second cable for grounding the first antenna is connected; an antenna detection circuit to detect a state of the first antenna; an antenna switching unit to switch from the first antenna to the second antenna, in a case where the antenna detection circuit detects an abnormality of the first antenna; and an insulating portion to insulate the first ground portion from a second ground portion around the first ground portion, in a case where the antenna detection circuit detects an abnormality of the first antenna.

In some embodiments, a first computing device detects a loss of a connection to a first source of timing information that the first computing device and a second computing device use to maintain synchronization with a first clock and a second clock. The first computing device receives a second source of timing information from the second computing device. The second source of timing information is also being transmitted to a third computing device. The first computing device uses the second source of timing information to determine a first timestamp and determines a second timestamp from the first clock. The first computing device uses the first timestamp and the second timestamp to adjust a rate of the first clock where the first clock is used to transmit the second source of timing information from the second computing device to the third computing device.
