Symmetricom SyncServer S200 is Compatible with Avaya Communications Manager IP Telephony Software
SAN JOSE, Calif.-- Symmetricom, Inc. (NASDAQ: SYMM), a worldwide leader in precise time and frequency products and services, today announced that SyncServer® S200™, the company’s high-performance Global Positioning System (GPS) network time protocol (NTP) server, is compliant with key IP telephony solutions from Avaya (NYSE:AV), a leading global provider of business communications applications, systems and services. Avaya confirmed that the SyncServer S200 now is compliance-tested for compatibility with Avaya Communications Manager 3.1.2 IP telephony software.
“The SyncServer S200 is a precise and versatile solution that synchronizes clocks on computers and servers for large or expanding networks and is optimized for demanding, high-bandwidth next generation environments,” commented John Hirsekorn, vice president of sales and marketing for Symmetricom. “Compatibility of the S200 with Avaya Communications Manager speeds time synchronization deployments and assures Symmetricom customers of compatibility with their Avaya solution.”
Symmetricom is a member of the Avaya DeveloperConnection Program—an initiative to develop, market and sell innovative third-party products that interoperate with Avaya technology and extend the value of a company’s investment in its network.
As a member of the program, Symmetricom is eligible to submit products for compatibility testing by the Avaya Solution Interoperability and Test Lab in Lincroft, N.J. where a team of Avaya engineers develops a comprehensive test plan for each application to verify whether it is Avaya compliant. Doing so ensures businesses can confidently add best-in-class capabilities to their network without having to replace their existing infrastructure—speeding deployment of new applications and reducing both network complexity and implementation costs.
“By offering compliance testing to the many innovative companies like Symmetricom who are members of our DeveloperConnection program, Avaya promotes fully interoperable solutions that help businesses unleash powerful new possibilities,” commented Eric Rossman, vice president, developer relations and technical alliances, Avaya. “They are able to use Intelligent Communications to connect employees and customers to information from wherever they are, over whatever device they have available – getting more out of their multivendor network and delivering new value to their bottom line.”
The numerous design features of the Symmetricom SyncServer S200 include scalability and security, high availability and throughput of three independent 10/100Base-T Ethernet ports with IPv6 support, and an easy-to-use intuitive Web interface with various set-up wizards, all needed to support a Next Generation Network. The Stratum 1 level S200 derives its time directly from the atomic clocks aboard the GPS satellite system, providing perfect timing. The S200 is extensively customer tested and is based on decades of design experience.
