CHALLENGES
When power transmission networks are moving their real-time critical services to IP their time synchronization will be a critical factor. The usage of synchrophasors (PMUs) for better control and protection schemes will also greatly impact on these tightened requirements.
Power utility networks that need to embrace new technology to be future proof. This brings forth challenging heterogeneous networks that need to enable mission critical real-time services. Time synchronization needs to work seamless and independent of the underlying network and provide accurate time within real-time boundaries.
As time synchronization requirements in mission critical power transmission networks are strict, GNSS/GPS solutions are not feasible due to vulnerability issues like jamming and spoofing. These network needs a secure and reliable in-network alternative that can assure service availability.
OUR SOLUTION
Our synchronization solution Zyntai is designed to address the time synchronization challenges faced by today’s complex networks. The solution creates an overlay sync network that operates independently of the underlying IP and transport infrastructure. This provides precise time synchronization where it is needed without requiring time sync hardware support in routers, switches and transport nodes, while working also over leased capacity. By distributing time sync over the network, your sites also become independent of external GPS/GNSS sources, reducing vulnerability to interference beyond you own control.
Implementing an overlay network-based synchronization ensures a more reliable network performance, increased control over your synchronization, and faster time sync deployment without the need for extensive hardware upgrades. Our solution empowers you to optimize your network’s efficiency and reliability while minimizing costs.
