Synchronization monitoring

Cost-effective delivery of assured phase, frequency and time-of-day synchronization at the edge of mobile backhaul networks has become a real challenge. As synchronization and precise timing grow in importance in many infrastructure networks, centralized visibility and control of this mission-critical timing environment becomes essential to network operations. From the core to the last mile, our solutions are the first in the industry to provide not only end-to-end timing distribution but also assurance. With our technology you can be sure of total visibility and carrier-class control of your synchronization network. Our OSA portfolio has the unique capability of monitoring synchronization quality while operating in service.

The Ensemble Sync Director is an advanced management platform for distributing and assuring timing for frequency, phase and time synchronization network elements. As synchronization and precise timing grow in importance in many infra-structure networks, centralized visibility and control of this mission-critical timing environment has become essential to network operations. Implemented following client-server architecture, the Ensemble Sync Director provides the flexibility, availability, scalability and performance required to meet growing demand in network and application synchronization. Its intuitive point-and-click graphical user interface application combined with wizard-based provisioning eliminates complexity, therefore enabling cost-effective operations of synchronization networks.

The Ensemble Sync Director provides continuous, real-time visibility into the entire synchronization network infrastructure, empowering network operators to optimize existing topologies, detect synchronization loops and prevent synchronization outages. Supporting the complete Syncjack™ synchronization network test framework, the Ensemble Sync Director is the ideal platform for monitoring and assuring precise frequency, phase and time distribution and therefore guarantees highest performance of time-critical network applications. Our Ensemble Sync Director can configure, initiate and monitor all Syncjack™ tests and schedule test procedures for automatic activation at a future point in time. Ongoing tests are moni-tored while test results are collected and stored for graphical display, comparison or export. Correlating and displaying test results on different levels of detail simplifies step-by-step troubleshooting and fault isolation.
