Read MoreHide Full Article

ADTRAN, Inc. (ADTN - Free Report) announced that OSA 3300 HP, its high-performance optical cesium clock, has demonstrated unprecedented precision during a test conducted at a prominent European metrology institute. During the three-month-long test, OSA 3300 HP, powered by ADTRAN's cutting-edge Oscilloquartz optical cesium technology, met the stringent timing accuracy and stability requirements vital for precise synchronization in scientific measurement applications.

The OSA 3300 HP comprises a range of advanced features, including remarkable frequency stability, accuracy, ease of operation and high reliability, which sets it apart from the legacy magnetic-based solutions. Its user-friendly, intuitive configuration minimizes the need for extensive training and reduces the likelihood of operational errors.

Backed by Oscilloquartz’s in-depth knowledge and key expertise, the device can fulfill the most demanding and critical applications, providing ultra-stable and precise frequency. The compact design makes it an excellent choice for environments with limited space.

Furthermore, with a guaranteed lifespan of ten years, ADTRAN’s OSA 3300 HP is the industry's first device that outperformed the best-in-class magnetic cesium clock. These features have the potential to significantly enhance the capabilities of scientists and engineers working across a wide range of research endeavors.

PNT (Positioning, Navigation, and Timing) systems play a vital role across various sectors, including transportation, telecommunications, defense and scientific research. Enterprises and operators can also leverage the highly resilient OSA 3300 HP for PNT assurance in critical infrastructure that are not dependent on GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System).  

The industry is witnessing a surge in demand for solutions that offer highly accurate timing while ensuring affordability. ADTRAN’s optical cesium technology is well-suited to meet these increasing requirements and can support a multitude of use cases in diverse sectors that are reliant on accurate timing and synchronization. Along with demonstrating its worth for metrology advancement and scientific research, it will also provide the foundation of future innovation in sectors from satellite navigation to nanoscale technology.

ADTRAN continues to benefit from solid demand trends of its network solutions, driven by the accelerated expansion of fiber-to-the-home networks, upgrades to in-home Wi-Fi connectivity and the adoption of cloud-based automation tools. The company’s end-to-end solutions simplify the deployment of fiber-based broadband services and provide a better customer experience.

It is focused on being a top global supplier of access infrastructure and related value-added solutions from the Cloud Edge to the Subscriber Edge through a broad portfolio of flexible hardware and software network solutions. These products enable a seamless transition to the fully converged, scalable, highly automated, cloud-controlled voice, data, Internet and video networks of the future.
