SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/
-- Symmetricom®, Inc. (NASDAQ: SYMM), a worldwide
leader in precision time and frequency technologies, today
announced the launch of a new high-performance, low-cost
measurement solution, the Symmetricom 3120A Phase Noise Test Probe.
The latest addition to Symmetricom's state-of-the-art timing test
set portfolio, the 3120A Test Probe comes in a convenient small
form factor and measures Phase Noise and Allan Deviation as part of
the base hardware kit. Additional software options are available to
measure AM noise floor and signal statistics such as HDEV, TDEV,
MDEV and jitter, and for use as a frequency counter and for mask
testing.

Unlike traditional solutions that are desktop-bound due to size
and weight, Symmetricom's 3120A Test Probe is small enough to be
carried around from location-to-location, and inexpensive enough to
have at each bench. Whether used on a busy manufacturing floor, in
a tight server closet or in R&D labs, the 3120A helps
characterize reference clocks, used in high-performance
applications, achieve the highest accuracy without requiring
calibration.
The 3120A Test Probe comes with easy-to–use, intuitive software
to take measurements and conduct analysis. The 3120A Phase Noise
Test Software displays results in seconds without the need for
external data processing.
"The Symmetricom 3120A is an excellent low cost phase noise test
probe that customers can use with their existing PC equipment to
achieve state-of-the-art measurements," said Sam Stein, chief scientist for Symmetricom. "It
is an ideal extension to Symmetricom's line of phase noise
products."
Symmetricom will introduce the 3120A Test Probe at the Precise
Time and Time Interval (PTTI) Systems and Applications Meeting,
which takes place on November 26 – 29
in Reston, Virginia. Symmetricom
will be at booth # 6 conducting demonstrations and providing
information about the 3120A Test Probe, in addition to
Symmetricom's other timing and synchronization products.
In addition, Dr. Samuel Stein
will present the following tutorial on Monday, November 26 at PTTI:
