Vitesse timing and synchronization expert at ITSF 2013

CAMARILLO, USA: Vitesse Semiconductor Corp., a leading provider of advanced IC solutions for carrier and enterprise networks, announced that Thomas Joergensen, principal engineer systems architect at Vitesse, will participate alongside other timing and synchronization experts at the ITSF 2013 time & sync in telecoms conference taking place from November 5-7, 2013 in Lisbon, Portugal.

The ITSF conference will focus on the implications and challenges of delivering precise time to within a few 100 nanoseconds versus general timing in telecom networks.

Precise time or phase synchronization is considered critical to addressing the exponentially increased bandwidth demands due to smart device usage and network migrations to 4G, LTE and LTE-advanced. Additional conference topics will examine vulnerabilities and mitigation solutions for IEEE 1588 PTP networks.

Joergensen will present during Session Three: Time and Phase Applications and Challenges, chaired by Martin Kingston, Stefano Ruffini and Tim Frost, on November 5, 2013 at 1:40 p.m. local time. His session, 'Considerations for building accurate PTP networks for now and the future,' will look at the need to d nanosecond-accurate network timing, technology considerations, and best practices.
