Aviat Networks has joined Symmetricom’s SyncWorld Ecosystem Program for delivering tested solutions for mobile backhaul synchronization over packet microwave networks.
Collaborating with Symmetricom strengthens Aviat’s solution portfolio for IP network migration by adding IEEE 1588v2 synchronization capability, which enables the smooth introduction of 4G/LTE.
This solution capability is in addition to Synchronous Ethernet, which was added to Aviat's Eclipse platform in late 2010.
Aviat and Symmetricom jointly completed extensive performance and interoperability tests to verify the performance of 1588v2 timing over various complex microwave backhaul network configurations under real-world deployment scenarios.
