RADs Unique Grandmaster-on-an-SFP Chosen by Major Asian Mobile Operator
Summary
The Institution of Engineering and Technology, the largest multidisciplinary professional engineering institution in the world, has cited MiCLK as “the first solution that truly allows placing a large number of distributed PTP Grandmasters across a wide area mobile network while still being CapEx-affordable.” In its commendation, the IET called it “an ideal option for 4G service providers looking for a quick, cost-effective way to bring accurate synchronization to small cells.” The finger-size MiCLK requires no pre-configuration.“MiCLK is ideal for rapid 4G roll-outs because it eliminates the need for an expensive Grandmaster appliance and forklifting the entire network for synchronization,” explains Franck Darmon, RAD’s Vice President of International Markets.“Moreover, the Distributed GM concept behind the MiCLK dramatically reduces installation and operational costs by eliminating the need for additional cabinet space, a separate power source and a GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receiver at every cell site.” RAD will exhibit its entire SAA solution, including MiCLK, at Mobile World Congress 2016, February 22-25 in Barcelona.www.rad.com Mahwah, NJ, February 18, 2016 --( PR.com )-- RAD (www.rad.com), whose award-winning Service Assured Access solutions improve mobile network performance by ensuring quality of experience and lowering total cost of ownership, has announced that a major 4G mobile operator in Asia has deployed its patent-pending MiCLK, the world’s first IEEE 1588 Grandmaster in an SFP.Following extensive testing of the device conducted over the past few months, including in live operational sites, the service provider decided to deploy hundreds of units in its LTE network as the first step in a much larger country-wide deployment that will continue through 2016.The Institution of Engineering and Technology, the largest multidisciplinary professional engineering institution in the world, has cited MiCLK as “the first solution that truly allows placing a large number of distributed PTP Grandmasters across a wide area mobile network while still being CapEx-affordable.” In its commendation, the IET called it “an ideal option for 4G service providers looking for a quick, cost-effective way to bring accurate synchronization to small cells.”The finger-size MiCLK requires no pre-configuration.“Moreover, the Distributed GM concept behind the MiCLK dramatically reduces installation and operational costs by eliminating the need for additional cabinet space, a separate power source and a GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receiver at every cell site.”RAD will exhibit its entire SAA solution, including MiCLK, at Mobile World Congress 2016, February 22-25 in Barcelona.About RADRAD is a global Telecom Access solutions and products vendor.
