ADVA FSP 150 Now Includes IEEE 1588v2 mini-Grandmaster Clock for Greater Precise
Time Synchronization
Martinsried/Munich, Germany. June 18, 2013. ADVA Optical Networking announced
today that its FSP 150 family of mobile backhaul products now includes an IEEE
1588v2 mini-Grandmaster (miniGM) clock and Boundary Clock functionality. The
integration of the miniGM ensures precise frequency and time synchronization at
the network edge and is specifically designed to support the large-scale rollout
of small cells for LTE-Advanced and radio access networks operating in unpaired
spectrum. The development of the miniGM is the latest in a series of updates to
the ADVA FSP 150 Syncjack(TM) timing distribution and assurance technology that
is designed to simplify the migration to LTE and LTE-Advanced radio access
networks.
"As mobile operators gradually introduce LTE-Advanced, they're finding network
synchronization increasingly complex," said Christoph Glingener, CTO, ADVA
Optical Networking. "This is all due to the necessary rollout of interference
coordination and radio spectrum control techniques. Base station clocks now need
to operate in phase within tolerances of less than a micro-second. This is a
considerable challenge. But by deploying the miniGM functionality at the edge of
the backhaul network and introducing our Syncjack(TM) timing assurance
technology, mobile operators and their mobile backhaul service providers can
meet these synchronization demands while improving their customer's quality of
experience."
Many legacy installed mobile backhaul networks can benefit from the new
functionality by combining GPS and a PTP miniGM clock in a cost-effective
service demarcation device. Deploying the miniGM as close as possible to the
cell site enables the utilization of existing networks for backhaul services
connecting LTE-Advanced radio access networks and supporting unpaired spectrum
operation. Since GPS is considered being not reliable enough when used as an
exclusive clock source, the PTP fallback capability significantly enhances the
stability of the synchronization architecture compared to a traditional GPS-only
solution.
The ADVA FSP 150 family is an intelligent Ethernet access, backhaul and
aggregation solution supporting Syncjack(TM) timing distribution and assurance.
Whether a greenfield installation, or an older first generation Carrier Ethernet
network, Syncjack(TM) enables new revenue from delivery of SLA-based
synchronization services with both PTP and SyncE network monitoring and
performance analysis. Precise clock accuracy measurements and enhanced
statistics can be gathered with external and internal references, or even when
no synchronization reference is available.
