Timing is everything

MRV is in synch with the backhaul sector...

=====

High-quality timing synchronization is extremely important in 2G GSM,
2.5G GPRS, 3G UMTS and 4G LTE/WiMAX mobile networks for a successful
call signal hand-off between cellular base stations. However, existing
solutions for clock synchronization function only as a dedicated
timing gateway, while in realistic implementation at the field the
requirements are heading toward carrier-Ethernet enabled services
including OAM, traffic management and SLA assurance. As a result, MRV
has developed a revolutionary approach that enables universal support
of legacy and next generation 4G LTE and beyond cellular networks.

The OptiSwitch 904-MBH is a compact Carrier Ethernet purpose-built
cell-site demarcation device that enables high-quality timing
synchronization over packet switched networks. The device delivers
support for synchronization over Ethernet (SyncE) and precision time
protocol (PTP-1588v2) paired with very robust traffic management
capabilities and end-to-end visibility of mobile services and
applications by incorporating enhanced OAM tools at ultra-precise nano-
second accuracy.

Many carriers are looking to replace circuit switched backhaul with IP
because it is less expensive way to meet increasing bandwidth needs on
mobile networks driven by increased data traffic. The flexibility of
the OptiSwitch 904-MBH enables end-to-end synchronization with maximum
investment protection of the existing network. With the MRV OS904-MBH,
carriers can build their timing solution to support their 3G networks
of today, and leave it in place as they migrate to 4G networks.

Migration, synchronization, and timing -- a killer combo?
