TimePictra® 12 Synchronization Management System

Product Highlights


Full FCAPS Plus Advanced Features

The TimePictra software suite comes standard with a comprehensive set of features for FCAPS management. It also includes a geographical topology map, a navigation tree with domain hierarchy and a dashboard that reports alarms, inventory, user logins and license installation information.

Advanced Configuration Management

The Configuration Manager allows authorized users to access, manage and visualize in real time all network element data and configuration updates within one application. The Configuration Manager displays information graphically at the cluster, port, module and service levels. The TimePictra platform can also add or delete client clocks and monitor their status based on sync flow detection.

Resilient Timing Network Control with TimePictra 12 Synchronization Management System


Critical infrastructures such as 5G wireless networks and smart power grids rely on resilient timing and synchronization to enable secure and reliable services. Many operators are transitioning to hybrid architectures that use secure network-based timing to reduce dependency on Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) alone. Operators must monitor live-sky GNSS synchronization reception and secure network-based synchronization transmission to ensure resilient timing for their critical infrastructures.

Our TimePictra 12 software suite provides full control and monitoring of all synchronization sources and distribution trails in the network, allowing you to instantly detect and respond to potential security threats or performance issues. The addition of our BlueSky GNSS Firewall enables real-time detection and response to potential GNSS jamming and spoofing security threats.

Use Cases


High-Accuracy Time Transfer

High‑accuracy time transfer enables precise, traceable synchronization across wide‑area networks, even when Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) signals are impaired or unavailable. By distributing resilient, nanosecond‑level timing through virtual Primary Reference Time Clock (vPRTC) and coherent Primary Reference Time Clock (cnPRTC) architectures, organizations can maintain trusted time sources over national and regional infrastructures.

The TimePictra® platform supports this by managing, validating and monitoring end‑to‑end time delivery, supporting consistent, high‑performance timing for critical applications.

5G

5G networks are being deployed worldwide, but each network can only function with accurate and dependable time. Without accurate time, 5G networks may need to shut down.

The TimePictra platform provides all the features and functions needed to deploy, configure, manage, verify, visualize, and monitor a 5G network.

Power Utilities

Power is critical to infrastructure and the demands placed on power utilities are growing daily. Combining the TimePictra platform with virtual Primary Reference Time Clock (vPRTC) architectures provides accurate sub-microsecond time while drastically reducing GNSS dependance while managing, verifying, and monitoring such critical networks.

Transportation

Public transportation networks require high-accuracy timing and GNSS monitoring in many cases at their remote locations to ensure their other GNSS-dependent services continue to function. The TimePictra platform, vPRTC architecture and our BlueSky® firewall deliver critical distribution and monitoring functions

Situational Awareness

Just as a network firewall detects and protects against network attacks, a GNSS firewall identifies jamming and spoofing threats and alerts critical infrastructure operators of untrusted sky-based signals. The TimePictra Synchronization and Management System provides full visibility into sky-based and network-based timing.
