Symmetricom Announces Industry-First End-to-End Management for IEEE 1588 PTP Portfolio at Carrier Ethernet World Congress
September 22 2009 - 7:00AM
Business Wire
Symmetricom®, Inc. (NASDAQ: SYMM), a worldwide leader in precise
time and frequency technologies that accelerate the deployment and
enable the management of next generation networks, today announced
TimePictra™ 4.0, the industry’s first comprehensive IEEE 1588
Precision Time Protocol (PTP) end-to-end synchronization management
platform. Delivering breakthrough network visibility and management
of IEEE 1588 PTP servers and clients, TimePictra allows carriers to
monitor their entire IEEE 1588 sync network consisting of multiple
vendors’ clients, all from a centralized location.
“Network management is essential for ensuring control and
visibility of the entire network,” commented Michael Howard,
principal analyst and co-founder at Infonetics Research. “As
carriers roll out innovative broadband services, they need a
variety of tools to support the new Ethernet network. Symmetricom’s
management and monitoring platform delivers an important element
for deploying IEEE 1588 PTP synchronization technology.”
A web-enabled synchronization management platform, TimePictra
4.0 has a scalable, modular, multi-vendor architecture that evolves
with the network, integrating with higher level systems and rapidly
identifying problems in a Network Operation Center (NOC)
environment. By continuously monitoring the health of the timing
network, service providers can be alerted of performance
degradation, thereby assuring quality of service.
“As the only provider of a complete end-to-end PTP solution with
servers, clients, global services and now full network management,
Symmetricom has long been leading the industry with IEEE 1588 PTP
synchronization technology,” commented Barry Dropping, senior
director, product line management at Symmetricom. “This management
solution rounds out Symmetricom’s IEEE 1588 portfolio, enabling
operators to confidently transition advanced networks to Ethernet
backhaul with full end-to-end synchronization performance
visibility.”
At Carrier Ethernet World Congress (CEWC), Symmetricom is
featuring its TimePictra 4.0 management platform as well as its
comprehensive IEEE 1588 PTP end-to-end solutions. The event is
taking place on September 21-24, 2009 in Berlin, Germany,
