Critical infrastructure communication networks require highly accurate and resilient synchronisation and timing, but, over time these systems age out and must be migrated to a more modern architecture. Microchip Technology has announced the new TimeProvider XT Extension System, a fan-out shelf used with redundant TimeProvider 4100 grandmasters to migrate legacy BITS/SSU equipment to a modular and resilient architecture. The TimeProvider XT provides operators with a clear path to replace existing SONET/SDH frequency synchronisation equipment, while adding timing and phase, essential for 5G networks.
As an accessory device to Microchip’s widely deployed TimeProvider 4100 grandmaster, each TimeProvider XT shelf is configured with two distribution modules and two plug-in modules, to provide 40 fully redundant and individually programmable outputs, each with synchronisation designed to meet ITU-T G.823 for wander and jitter control. Operators can connect up to five XT shelves, to scale up to 200 fully redundant T1/E1/CC communication outputs. All configuration, status monitoring and alarm reporting is done via the TimeProvider 4100 grandmaster.
This new solution allows operators to consolidate their critical frequency, timing and phase requirements onto a single modern platform, saving maintenance and service costs.
