I'm looking for a device that can receive GPS inside a building without
the assistance of an external antenna (Frontier says they no longer
allow external antenna), will provide traditional NTP services, and will
provide a timing signal that my Metaswitch can work with.

GPS inside a building probably isn't going to work unless you have the
antenna up against a window.

Concur.  But if you have that, my microserver build on a Raspberry Pi
will do nicely.

No need for expensive proprietary hardware.
