Demonstrations Will Highlight New Functionality for Improved Accuracy, Reliability and Cost Efficiency
Prague, Czech Republic. October 26, 2016. Oscilloquartz (http://www.oscilloquartz.com/), an ADVA Optical Networking company, announced today that it will showcase vital new functionality for its synchronization and distribution technology at the 2016 International Timing & Sync Forum (ITSF) in Prague. Demonstrations will reveal additional applications based on enhanced hardware and software in the OSA 5401 Syncplug (http://www.oscilloquartz.com/product-osa-5401-syncplug-1299), an ultra-compact Precision Time Protocol (PTP) grandmaster clock, and the OSA 5420 (http://www.oscilloquartz.com/product-osa-5420-series-1295) range of synchronization distribution and assurance devices optimized for edge deployment. The new feature set includes the OSA 5401's capability to be used as a boundary or slave clock and the OSA 5420 series' availability as a one-box solution for all timing protocols. The advancements will improve accuracy, security and cost-efficiency and create new use cases and deployment scenarios for Oscilloquartz's timing technology.
"With these latest innovations we can offer the ultimate timing solution. Thanks to improved security and resiliency, as well as different PTP profiles for different markets, our technology now caters for all synchronization requirements," said Nir Laufer, director, product line management, Oscilloquartz. "Our enhanced OSA 5401 small form-factor pluggable grandmaster will bring major benefits to network operators. Its new slave and boundary clock functionality enables it to be used as an add-on, creating a hybrid synchronization network. Deployed this way, the OSA 5401 significantly reduces packet delay variation while taking up zero real estate and using very little power. It also protects against outages in the global navigation satellite system (GNSS), delivering superior frequency and phase with better resiliency throughout the network."
Further enhancements to the OSA 5401 include Layer 3 multi-cast functionality for financial and enterprise applications, as well as remote authentication and logs for improved manageability and security. Improvements have also been made to the OSA 5401's GNSS capabilities, such as an elevation mask, a signal-to-noise ratio mask and fixed positioning, which enables more accurate time and frequency recovery, even in challenging environments such as urban canyon installations. Upgrades to the OSA 5420 series mean that it can now function as a high-capacity Network Time Protocol (NTP) server or PTP grandmaster in the same device, or even over the same port. What's more, it can now support different types of line cards, including multiple 1Gbit/s ports used for PTP, NTP and Sync-E, as well as BITS, pulse-per-second, time-of-day and clock interfaces. This single box for all synchronization applications dramatically reduces cost and enables customers to protect their investment in NTP while planning future migration toward PTP.
"We're excited to present our latest advancements to the industry at ITSF. Our demos will show that we've created a complete synchronization solution - a family of devices that makes precise, resilient and affordable timing available for every industry," commented Gil Biran, general manager, Oscilloquartz. "With the OSA 5420 range, we've taken the Swiss army knife strategy even further, so that a single device now supports all sync technologies. It gives operators a one-box solution for overlay networks with different requirements. With its NTP server and GNSS receiver capability, including multiple legacy and next-generation synchronization fan-out options, our OSA 5420 series is ideal for deployment in legacy synchronization architectures. It also offers the freedom to locate sync devices at any point in the network, which further reduces capital and operational expenditure."
Showcases will take place throughout the day in booth 5 from Tuesday, November 1 until Thursday, November 3. As well as the demonstrations, there will be presentations delivered to the entire conference by several of Oscilloquartz's leading experts in timing and synchronization.
