Orolia’s VersaSync Named Best U.S. Resilient PNT Solution
Rochester, NY, December 10, 2020 – Orolia, the world leader in Resilient Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNTPosition, Navigation, and Timing: PNT and map data combine to create the GPS service.), announced today that its VersaSync™ mission timing and synchronization solution has won the 2020 ASTORS Homeland Security Award for the best Resilient Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) solution. The ASTORS awards are sponsored by American Security Today to recognize outstanding organizations that develop unique solutions for homeland security challenges.
VersaSync is a highly versatile, mobile resilient PNT solution that integrates easily onboard existing and emerging military and security platforms within ground vehicles, aircraft, ships and unmanned systems. It is often deployed to ensure onsite mission timing and synchronization with continuous access to GPSGlobal Positioning System is a navigation satellite system. See also, encrypted signals, and PNT data- even in remote, rugged, and GPS compromised environments.
This mobile time and frequency reference system synchronizes challenging operations where failure is not an option. Combining precision master clock technology with exceptional flexibility, VersaSync delivers accurate, software configurable time and frequency signals under any circumstances.
Its small SWAP-C and rugged form factor also make it ideal for the harshest environments.
VersaSync also offers built-in PNT cybersecurity as well as network-centric functionality, including NTPNTP, or Network Time Protocol, is a widely used networking protocol that enables computers and devices to synchronize their system clocks with a reference time source. It ensures accurate timekeeping in computer networks by allowing devices to obtain precise time information from NTP servers, which are typically synchronized to highly accurate atomic clocks. NTP is essential for various applications and services that rely on synchronized time, such as network security, authentication, and data logging./PTP precise time transfer over Ethernet with security protocols that protect network vulnerabilities. Additional security options include GPS jamming and spoofing detection, encrypted military signals and Low Earth Orbit satellite connectivity.
Today, VersaSync supports a variety of U.S. air, land, and sea programs related to test ranges, ISR missions, UAVUnmanned Aerial Vehicle. Remotely piloted aircraft commonly referred to as a drone. See also payloads, sensor support (such as radars, sonars and optronics), tactical vehicle network synchronization, and cyber/electronic warfare.
“Flexible, mobile PNT access is essential for today’s military and security operations,” said Paul Zweers, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Orolia. “Orolia is honored to be recognized by the 2020 ASTORS awards program. As the world leader in Resilient PNT, we will continue to focus on practical innovation together with the latest technologies to deliver reliable, trusted solutions to protect critical infrastructure.”
