Timing and Frequency Standards

Precision timing and synchronization are vital to our internet and wireless infrastructure; efficiently maximizing the use of bandwidth and meshing the flow of network data. Precise timing requirements appear in a variety of other industries, from banking to E911, the healthcare industry and power utilities. Digital television and DTV transmission systems could not function without synchronization to precise time standards. Navigation systems, avionics and military communications are other applications in which precision timing is essential.

GPS disciplined master clock systems can give accurate time to the nanoseconds - at reasonable cost and in small packages. They can provide synchronization virtually anywhere in the world, referenced to UTC time. Because of the highly stable disciplined oscillators, short term stability is adequate to continue precision signals for a defined time in the absence of GPS reception.
