Ultra-Compact
OSA 5405 SyncReach(TM)
Features Industry's Only Dual Antenna GNSS Technology for Both
Indoor and Outdoor Deployment
Neuchâtel,
Swizerland. May 23, 2017. Oscilloquartz, an ADVA Optical
Networking company, today launched the OSA 5405 SyncReach(TM), an
integrated PTP grandmaster and GNSS receiver with a patent-pending
dual antenna and receiver to enable the mass roll out of small
cells. The new technology has been specifically engineered to
provide accurate and affordable phase synchronization for the
rapidly growing small cell market and meet the stringent timing
requirements of 4.5G and 5G connectivity. With the OSA 5405
operators can migrate from legacy GNSS RF antennas and cables to
standard, cost-effective copper and fiber Ethernet cabling,
reducing capital expenditure and operating expenses. Available in
both indoor and outdoor variants, the OSA 5405 can be deployed in
the most challenging environments, including urban canyons where
GPS signals fail. The OSA 5405's miniscule form factor also enables
it to be positioned on indoor windows to avoid multipath signal
interference from objects within the building.
"We're at the start of a new era.
With the internet of things (IoT) connecting more wireless devices
and 5G just around the corner, small cells will have a big role to
play. This market is set to grow exponentially in the next few
years. Small cells will soon be everywhere and that makes precise
synchronization essential. Operators urgently need a way to
reliably and affordably deliver new levels of phase accuracy," said
Gil Biran, general manager, Oscilloquartz. "We've created our OSA
5405 to effectively deliver small cell synchronization in any
environment and eliminate all restrictions. Our new technology
radically simplifies GNSS antenna installation. The use of PTP
removes the need to compensate for cable delay and extends the
reach of GNSS. It enables operators to forget about archaic and
expensive RF cables and use simple copper cabling or optical fiber
for longer distances. And with variants that can be positioned in
almost any location, it provides strictly accurate timing precisely
where it's needed."
The compact design and
power-over-Ethernet capabilities of the indoor- or outdoor-mounted
OSA 5405 enable synchronization right at the edge of the mobile
network. This creates dramatic reductions in complexity and power
requirements as well as lower costs for installation and operation.
Another key feature of the new technology is IP connectivity. This
means that synchronization becomes another element of the internet
of things. The OSA 5405's highly precise GNSS-sourced
synchronization is supported by network-based Sync-E and PTP
backups. In high-rise buildings it can also deliver synchronization
recovered from the GNSS smart receiver over optical fiber. The ADVA
FSP Network Manager with comprehensive Syncjack(TM) assurance
guarantees efficient operation. What's more, the OSA 5405 uses a
unique dual GNSS antenna and receiver algorithm to mitigate
interference from multipath signals that can affect accuracy,
particularly in urban canyons.
"Make no mistake; the launch of
our OSA 5405 is a major milestone in the progress towards
mass-scale small cell deployment. With its plug-and-play
simplicity, miniscule form factor and multiple timing functions in
a single device, this is a key technology for 5G networks and the
IoT. Currently deployed in trials with major carriers, it will
shortly be available to all operators looking to harness
next-generation synchronization precisely where it's needed,"
commented Nir Laufer, product line director, Oscilloquartz. "What
we're providing here is unprecedented efficiency, flexibility and
simplicity. We have the version with ruggedized housing for outdoor
installations and the indoor variant for deployment on the inside
of windows. Our OSA 5405 makes accurate and affordable small cell
synchronization available for all networks. And it doesn't just
deliver on cost. Improvements to reliability and precision
significantly improve customer experience. It also boasts the
smallest available size and power footprint, making this the
greenest small cell synchronization technology on the market."
