Symmetricom, Inc. (NASDAQ: SYMM), a worldwide leader in precise time and frequency technologies that accelerate the deployment and enable the management of next generation networks, today announced the SyncServer� S300/S350 SAASM NTP Network Time Server that meets the Global Positioning System (GPS) security requirements of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). SyncServer S300/S350 SAASM is a high performance time server with a secure, Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM), GB-GRAM compliant GPS receiver. SAASM is the security architecture selected by the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) to provide the next generation security functions for GPS authorized military users.

The SyncServer S300/S350 SAASM has been granted security approval by the GPS Wing (GPSW) which confirms the product meets the latest security requirements of the DoD. GPSW has the overall responsibility for controlling the development, production, sale and distribution of GPS SAASM security devices. GPSW security approval is required prior to sale and use of the SyncServer S300/S350 SAASM by authorized customers.

�Symmetricom has been a leading provider of secure GPS based time and frequency solutions for over a decade� commented Paul Skoog, product marketing manager for Symmetricom. �Now, with the SyncServer S300/S350 SAASM we set new standards for security, reliability and versatility in synchronizing the time on mission critical servers and workstations for DoD networks.�

An ultra high-bandwidth NTP time server, SyncServer S300/S350 SAASM is based on Symmetricom�s SyncServer S300/S350 NTP Time Server with the following features:

  • SAASM GB-GRAM PPS Receiver with RAIM � Compliant with DoD mandate to use GPS SAASM Precise Positioning Service (PPS) receivers
  • Gigabit Ethernet Port in addition to three 10/100Base-T ports � The four completely independent ports provide the flexibility needed to easily adapt to different and changing network topologies and security requirements
  • IPv6 Compliance � Assures the SyncServer will last through the IPv4 to IPv6 migration, futureproofing the DoD network
  • RADIUS Authentication � For maximum security and easy password management, particularly when there are multiple administrators that need access to the servers
  • Autokey � To assure time packet integrity from the authoritative time server by using secure digital signatures which are easily configured and managed through the easy-to-use web interface
  • Alarm Relays for Monitoring Systems � In-depth internal monitoring, very flexible configurations and external alarming
  • Easy Set-Up and Control � Multiple NTP ports allow for easy network configuration and adaptation; intuitive web interface for easy control and maintenance

Compliant with the Joint Chiefs of Staff mandate that all newly fielded DoD systems using GPS use SAASM PPS devices after October 1, 2006 (unless waived), the SyncServer S300/S350 SAASM provides the highest immunity to jamming, plus time and frequency precision and versatility. The SyncServer S300/S350 SAASM provides very reliable and secure network synchronization technology by combining multi-port network interfaces with multiple time reference technology and enhanced security protocols. Accurately synchronized clocks are critical for network log file accuracy, security, electronic transactions, database integrity, communications and many other essential DoD applications.

The SyncServer S300/S350 SAASM NTP network time servers will be available in July 2009.
