Synchronisation, Time and Frequency

Horsebridges' foundation was in the domain of Synchronisation, Time and Frequency.

Our product range is now at its most expansive spanning from atomic time standards to embedded timing solutions. Our solutions are used in many military and civil applications and synchronisation of  Ethernet, ATM and SDH (SONET) networks, Satellite Ground Stations and Radar Systems, National Physics Laboratories and Time Standards and in Precise Navigational and Position Systems.


Primary Reference Sources

All clocks in a synchronisation network must be referenced, or traceable, to a Primary Reference Source. Horsebridges atomic based Primary Reference Sources (PRSs), provide the highest level of time and/or frequency accuracy for telecom networking as required by international standards. Our products ensure the highest level of time and frequency accuracy throughout the network.

Synchronisation Supply Units

Our range of Synchronisation Supply Units (SSUs) meet existing and emerging synchronisation requirements for network wide timing. Our solutions are used to distribute precise frequency and time to equipment in communication networks so voice, video and data traffic are transported reliably and efficiently.

Network Time Protocol

Network Time Protocol (NTP) time servers from Horsebridge provide accurate, reliable, and secure time synchronisation to telecommunications networks, military, banking, utilities and IT networks. Our Solutions make it easy to control, distribute and monitor time synchronisation throughout the network.

Time and Frequency Systems

Horsebridge provides and extensive range of time and frequency receivers, distribution units, amplifiers and modules. Complex communication systems, metrological stations, satellite earth stations, test facilities and engineering laboratories require Time and Frequency solutions to effectively distribute signals and generate frequencies for use in their precise applications.

Testing and Measurement

Our range of test and measurement equipment allow users to assess the quality of of phase, frequency and time signals and services.

GPS Clocks and Timing

GPS Clocks and Timing Solutions are an alternative to atomic Primary Reference Sources. Complementary to our atomic based PRS range our GPS solutions also provide the highest level of time and/or frequency accuracy for telecom networking as required by international standards ensuring the highest level of time and frequency accuracy throughout the network.

Sync Distribution Units

Our range of Synchronisation Distribution Units (SDUs) provide distribution of synchronisation references to network elements such as switches, cross connect and multiplexers. Provided with or without holdover capability the units can be used in isolation or in conjunction with our range os SSUs.

Precision Time Protocol

Precision Time Protocol or PTP provides precise timing and synchronisation over packet-based, Ethernet networks. Horsebridge's solutions address a wide variety of applications ranging from precise carrier class synchronization and precise time stamping to the test and measurement of PTP networks. Therefore our customers directly benefit from lower-cost, higher-capacity packet-over-Ethernet network infrastructures without sacrificing precise timing and synchronisation requirements.

Network Management Systems

Horsebridge provides management systems for al of the products within our portfolio. All of our synchronisation solutions are managed by state-of-the-art GUI-driven management systems providing service, subscriber, network and element management support for our synchronisation solutions.

 

Crystal Oscillators

Horsebridge provide a wide selection of Crystal Oscillators covering all frequency ranges and stability requirements between 10-7 and 10-11 is available
