DESCRIPTION
To meet the stringent requirements of new mobile, fixed, and wired networks, reliable and accurate synchronization services are crucial from the core network to the edge network. However, the challenge goes beyond accuracy. In addition to strict precision requirements, network operators also need a powerful, scalable, and cost-effective solution that can work in both packet-based networks and traditional infrastructures.
Our T830 is a carrier-grade solution that supports ePRTC, PRTC A/B, SSU, and IEEE 1588V2 grandmasters. It features 10Gbit/s and 1Gbit/s interfaces with hardware timestamping, seamlessly enabling replacement through modular and bus design.
With its NTP server, BITS/Composite Clock (CC) outputs, and GNSS receiver functionality, the T830 becomes an ideal choice for smoothly upgrading traditional synchronization architectures. It provides precise timing for DOCSIS 3.1 Remote PHY devices, making it a powerful tool for cable TV operators to meet rapidly growing business demands. Through modular, scalable, and fully redundant design, our T830 offers high configuration flexibility and reliability.
Furthermore, we provide comprehensive synchronization monitoring assurance, eliminating the need to purchase expensive testing equipment separately. With our T830, delivering cost-effective and accurate clock synchronization for next-generation technologies such as LTE-A and 5G is no longer a challenge.
Applications in Core Networks:
- Synchronization for wireless access networks, including 4G, 4.5G LTE/LTE-A, 5G NR, cluster communications, and small cell base stations
- Clock synchronization for traditional network architectures based on NTP and PRC/SSU/CC
- Synchronization for wired networks (DOCSIS 3.1) and PON
- Synchronization for data centers and enterprise networks
- Synchronization for modern and traditional power utility networks and modern digital broadcasting studios
- Distribution networks
