News summary:
- Leading service provider required ultra-reliable
synchronization solution able to provide sustained holdover when
GNSS data is unavailable
- Adtran’s Oscilloquartz ePRTC+™ technology brings long-term
stability to Vodafone Turkey’s nationwide synchronization
network
- Industry-first solution greatly exceeds international standards
for protecting critical timing services against possible GNSS
unavailabilities
Adtran today announced that Vodafone Turkey has deployed its
Oscilloquartz optical cesium atomic clock technology to bring new
levels of resilient timing to its nationwide network. Adtran’s
first-to-market solution will deliver robust protection against
disruptions to GNSS signals, enabling Turkey’s leading service
provider to maintain uninterrupted, reliable connectivity even
while it readies 5G services. By combining its existing Adtran
Oscilloquartz core grandmaster clock devices with the new optical
cesium atomic clock technology, Vodafone Turkey has an ePRTC+™
solution that guarantees accurate network synchronization during
any possible GNSS unavailability. Artıtel also played a key role in
the deployment, facilitating logistics and supply management.

“Our new solution injects outstanding reliability and precision
into our national synchronization network. It’s a key step in our
5G strategy, enhancing service performance and equipping us to
address emerging timing challenges. Now we can guarantee a seamless
user experience as we provide more customers with access to
data-intensive applications and uninterrupted high-quality video
streaming,” said Yago Lopez, network director at Vodafone Turkey.
“Threats to GNSS are multiplying, so we need to harness technology
that bolsters the resilience of our entire timing network. We’ve
also seen the impact that devastating natural disasters can have on
GNSS accuracy and availability. That’s why Adtran’s Oscilloquartz
ePRTC+™ technology is so crucial. It safeguards synchronization
input for our network and ensures it remains stable in the most
challenging conditions.”
For enhanced redundancy, Vodafone Turkey is strategically
deploying Adtran’s Oscilloquartz ePRTC+™ across five different
sites. Central to the solution are the Oscilloquartz OSA 3350
ePRC+™, which utilizes optical pumping technology to achieve
high-performance frequency stability, and Vodafone Turkey’s
existing core grandmaster clocks, the OSA 5430 and OSA 5440. Along
with the Oscilloquartz clock combiner, these components form the
complete ePRTC+™ system. Capable of maintaining 100 nanoseconds
holdover for at least 45 days, and typically up to 55 days, it
surpasses current ITU-T G.811.1 standards. The solution provides
Vodafone Turkey with optimal stability, outperforming the lifespan
of other high-performance magnetic cesium clocks. It also features
a modular design, which includes a wide range of synchronization
output interfaces and supports secured management capabilities,
including SNMP – essential for efficient network management and
security.
“With its deployment of our ePRTC+™ system, Vodafone Turkey is
introducing next-level timing resilience into its network. This
helps ensure every customer has seamless and uninterrupted access
to some of the fastest mobile services available,” commented Stuart
Broome, GM of EMEA sales at Adtran. “Combining our grandmaster GNSS
receivers with our ultra-accurate OSA 3350 ePRC+™ ensures
protection for Vodafone Turkey’s timing and synchronization
operations with the industry’s longest holdover. It will help
Vodafone Turkey set new benchmarks in network reliability and
service quality.”
