Breakthrough Technology Drives Phase and Frequency Synchronization Deeper into
Access Networks
Neuchâtel, Switzerland. October 30, 2015. Oscilloquartz, an ADVA Optical
Networking company, today launched its OSA 5401 Syncplug(TM), a highly accurate
and uniquely efficient small form-factor pluggable (SFP) grandmaster clock and
GNSS receiver. The innovative device has the smallest footprint and most compact
design on the market. It complements the existing portfolio of Oscilloquartz
products, driving precise IEEE 1588v2 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) frequency
and phase synchronization as well as Synchronous Ethernet deeper into access
networks, including radio access and small cell networks. With its miniature
form factor and low-touch provisioning, the new synchronization solution can be
deployed in the most space-restrictive environments. What's more, it operates at
low cost, consumes minimal energy and requires no additional power source or
real estate. The OSA 5401 Syncplug(TM) supports the creation of an entirely new
time distribution architecture to meet the stringent phase-synchronization
requirements of today's access networks.
"In terms of efficiency, precision and density of design, our OSA 5401
Syncplug(TM) miniature grandmaster is a major development for our industry,"
said Kenneth Hann, senior director, R&D, Oscilloquartz. "It's possibly the
world's smallest grandmaster clock and yet it generates phenomenally precise PTP
frequency and phase synchronization for radio access and small cell networks.
Now network operators have a cost-effective migration path for deploying robust
phase and frequency synchronization deeper into access networks. Our OSA 5401
Syncplug(TM) integrates with existing network elements and its small form factor
and rich feature set enable a versatile range of deployment options for enhanced
synchronization network performance. Its timing-optimized, dual-frequency GNSS
receiver achieves excellent performance even in urban canyons where small-cell
deployments are often made and it can also work with a single satellite."
The OSA 5401 Syncplug(TM) is the first new product to be jointly engineered by
Oscilloquartz and members of the recently acquired Time4 Systems. It easily
conforms to all relevant PTP telecom profiles and, when locked to global
navigation systems, meets the stringent requirements of G.8272 and G.811
specifications. The device functions as a Synchronous Ethernet source, GNSS
receiver and a grandmaster clock. It can support both Layer 2 and Layer 3 PTP
transport and is capable of unicasting and multicasting simultaneously. Advanced
design and network redundancy techniques provide resiliency against local GNSS
jamming. It also boasts an impressively wide operational temperature range of
-40 to 85 Celsius. But the key benefits that the OSA 5401 Syncplug(TM) provides
are space and energy efficiency for significant savings in installation and
engineering costs. It also fully complies with multi-source agreements for total
interoperability.
"An enormous amount of expertise and passion has gone into designing this
device. It's been driven by our strategic understanding of what's most needed in
the synchronization space," commented Gil Biran, general manager, Oscilloquartz.
"This first member of our miniature sync product family has already won great
feedback from major mobile operators. What makes our ultra-compact OSA 5401
Syncplug(TM) so special is that it combines small size with high performance.
Make no mistake, there's a vast amount of advanced functionality squeezed into
this device. That's what enables it to deliver highly accurate timing
distribution with the smallest available footprint. This level of agility and
efficiency creates a new range of solutions for service providers to deploy
phase synchronization even in the most difficult network scenarios. There's no
doubt that this is an exciting time for network synchronization technology and
this new product will extend our position in the market as a one-stop shop for
all synchronization solutions. The new generation of mobile networks demands
more small cells and a higher density of radio heads and we're addressing this
challenge in the most energy-efficient and cost-effective way possible."
The OSA 5401 Syncplug(TM) will be showcased live from Tuesday, November 3 until
Thursday, November 5 at ITSF 2015 in Edinburgh.
