Business Wire
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
two PCI Express (PCIe) time and frequency computer plug-in cards.
The bc635PCIe and the GPS synchronized bc637PCIe bring unparalleled
precise time and frequency functions to the latest computers and
servers equipped with PCIe bus technology. These PCIe timing cards
provide an optimum solution for customers with time sensitive
applications in the aerospace, defense, power utility and financial
industries for combining precise timing with their application
specific systems. Microsecond accurate timing synchronized across
multiple computers enhances measurement capabilities and enables
distributed applications to work in concert and in real time as
well as improve the post-processing correlation of collected
data.
These low profile PCIe timing cards include industry leading
software development kits (SDKs) and drivers for Windows, Linux and
Solaris that enable quick and easy integration into custom systems.
Never before has such broad software support been bundled with the
wide range of timing features found in the bc635PCIe and bc637PCIe
cards. The result is a comprehensive bus level timing solution
enabling customers to efficiently integrate timing technology into
their systems with a minimum investment of effort.
“These latest time and frequency processor cards are keeping
pace with the computer and server industry by providing PCI Express
interface support, and they excel at saving our customers time and
money when adding timing technology to their systems, ” commented
Paul Skoog, product marketing manager for Symmetricom. “Our
full-featured, easy-to-use software development kits included with
the cards enable programmers to integrate timing technology into
their systems efficiently while leveraging Symmetricom’s
extensive timing expertise.”
New capabilities of the PCI Express time and frequency processor
cards include:
- Precision Time Stamps –
provided on demand at extremely fast rates with low latency
- Easy PCIe Card
Integration – the comprehensive software development kits,
included standard with the product, make it extremely easy to
integrate the bus cards into custom applications with 32/64-bit
Windows and Linux and 64-bit Solaris
- PCI Express Support –
provides support for the low profile PCIe bus interface, the
computer expansion card standard replacing older PCI and PCI-X
standards
- Extensive Time Code
Generation and Translation – IRIG A, B, G, E, IEEE 1344, NASA
36, XR3 or 2137 formats supported to address a variety of timing
requirements common to aerospace, defense and power utility
applications
- Industry Leading User
Interface and Documentation – extremely easy to use software
interface and easy to follow documentation speed integration
- Easy Predecessor
Migration – customer applications written around earlier
bc635/637PCI cards can quickly and easily migrate to the new
bc635/637PCIe cards; in most cases, as easy as plug-and-play
compatibility
Versatile and highly reliable, Symmetricom’s bus level timing
cards deliver extremely precise and accurate time for government,
aerospace and financial applications that require tight integration
between precise time and frequency functions and the application
software on the host computer.
Availability
The PCI Express time and frequency processor cards will be
available December 1, 2009.
