TimeMAX

Flexible GPS-disciplined time and frequency reference platform

With its compact size, simple interface, and outstanding reliability, the TimeMAX™ offers breakthrough price-performance in an adaptable, high-performance system.

The TimeMAX synchronization platform enables rapid development of timing subsystems for OEM applications in base stations, transmission stations and similar equipment.  In fact, this cost-effective system was designed for easy integration into existing communications and network equipment.

TimeMAX is optimized to support high levels of Quality of Service (QoS) and handoff performance in WiMAX and other multiple latency- and jitter-sensitive applications, such as voice, real time video and gaming.

WiMAX requires both frequency and time synchronization. Mobile WiMAX will need to support full Quality of Service handoffs at vehicle speeds. GPS is the current recommended source for synchronization for WiMAX base stations. These applications and other advanced, mobile services are driving the need for end-to-end network synchronization, pushing precise timing and frequency beyond base stations and central offices into areas throughout the network. The TimeMAX platform provides different oscillator choices at different price-performance levels to support all of these requirements.
