These ToP (Timing-over-Packet) devices are specifically designed to transmit timing and synchronization over asynchronous packet switched networks. Deploying Zarlink’s revolutionary ZL 30301 and ...

Circuits as WAN connections battled successfully against packets for years because they guaranteed bandwidth, no matter what. If you bought a T-1 circuit, the service provider nailed up 1.5Mbps from ...

As we mentioned last time, there was an entire industry built around using TDM bandwidth efficiently due to the compelling economics of building corporate private-line networks. By the late 1980s, ...

Verizon Communications this week announced plans to shift its nationwide telecommunications network to packet-switched technology as part of a plan to offer new voice-over-IP and multimedia services.

The IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol enables precise time synchronization over the packet-based Ethernet network so that the time on a slave clock at one end of the network agrees with a master clock ...

EN 18052:2025 is the European standard defining end-to-end conformance testing for eCall services operating in hybrid environments with coexistent circuit-switched 2G and 3G networks and ...

One of the design requirements for the networks that evolved into the Internet was the ability to keep functioning, even if some nodes or links were disabled or destroyed in war. The packet-switched ...

With high-speed 100-GbE communication network standards converging, switching functions play a key role in the smooth functioning of the Internet. The aggregated network traffic doubles every six ...
