Manufacturers rely on time and frequency technology for such diverse applications as calibration and test of electronic devices, network security and records accuracy and overall operational efficiency.
Manufacturers of electronic devices and communications equipment require accurate frequency and timing signals, and the measurement of those and other signals for calibration and test. In addition to frequency references/standards and frequency counters/analyzers, Spectracom offers GPS simulators for manufacturers of GPS receivers and devices for fast and efficient testing of position, navigation and timing functions.
Large, multi-site, global manufacturers need to support wide area networking for critical applications. Synchronized networks are critical to the health of the operation. Network performance can be improved with accurate network timing systems including with new deployments of precision time protocol (PTP, IEEE-15855): process control over IP, information security systems, distributed processing, financial systems, telecommunications, and more.
If manufacturers need to synchronize time and attendance systems to legally traceable time®. A GPS master clock can be used to signal events such as shift changes in conjunction with synchronized time display clocks to improve monitoring of breaks and meetings all in accordance with union rules.
