Will Viavi Stock Gain From the Expansion of SecurePNT Portfolio?
Read MoreHide Full Article
VIAVI Solutions Inc. (VIAV - Free Report) recently expanded its SecurePNT portfolio with the launch of the EdgeGM 7000, a highly resilient Edge Grandmaster Clock. This cutting-edge solution is tailored to provide superior resilience for Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) services, with up to 25G Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and multi-orbit SecureTime altGNSS, ensuring comprehensive resilience for global infrastructure operations.
How VIAV’s Solution Could Prove Beneficial?
In today’s hyper-connected digital world, critical networks worldwide, such as 5G/6G telecommunications, AI data centers, defense, transportation and finance, are heavily dependent on publicly available Global Positioning System and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals for synchronization. However, these signals are vulnerable to jamming, spoofing and other cyber threats, resulting in significant risks to operations that rely on precise timing and positioning. Recognizing these issues, governments around the world have increasingly mandated that critical infrastructure providers strengthen their network resilience to protect against PNT service vulnerabilities.
VIAVI’s state-of-the-art SecurePNT and SecureTime solution suites ensure the most resilient timing in the industry by incorporating signals from multiple GNSS-dependent government constellations and GNSS-independent commercial constellations in Medium Earth Orbit, Geosynchronous Earth Orbit and Low Earth Orbit. The newly launched solution combines cutting-edge PTP capabilities and scalability in a compact, half-19-inch wide, 1U height rack-mountable form factor. Its scalable software options allow users to easily upgrade from 1/10G to 25G PTP through a simple license. Additionally, the device provides the flexibility to activate GNSS backup via an on-demand alternate GNSS GEO-L source license over the air. The solution will be showcased at MWC Barcelona and will be held from March 3 to 6, 2025.
