Net Insight Partners with TST to Enter the Mainland China Market for Time Synchronization

Net Insight and Times Sage Tech Ltd (TST) have entered a partnership to enable resilient time synchronization in mainland China. TST will invest in a pilot system to showcase Net Insight’s unique and GNSS-independent time synchronization solution Zyntai across mainland China. This is the first order for the Zyntai solution for the Chinese market.

China is the world’s largest 5G market and the fast rate of digitization and high focus on security means a large potential for resilient time synchronization. Net Insight’s network-based and hardware-independent sync solution will enable telecom operators and private network providers to further accelerate deployment of critical 5G networks and applications. TST is a systems integrator and part of Century Sage Scientific Group focused at providing communication equipment throughout APAC.

Time synchronization is a fundamental function in 5G and other critical infrastructure often delivered through GPS/GNSS satellites. However, GPS/GNSS is highly vulnerable to jamming and spoofing and Net Insight and TST will provide a GPS/GNSS-independent solution assuring secure and resilient infrastructure, which is essential for delivery of high accuracy time synchronization across any type of underlying network technology.

”The Chinese market is leading in 5G deployments and invest heavily in digitalization across society and industries. It is therefore crucial to guarantee that 5G and other critical networks are unaffected by GPS interference,” says Andrew Lo, CEO of TST. “This makes Net Insight’s solution very important for us and we look forward to a further successful collaboration.“

“Our 5G sync solution Zyntai is a cornerstone for making critical networks more resilient, by enabling them to work independently of external sync sources like GNSS/GPS,” says Crister Fritzson, CEO of Net Insight. “5G networks in China are among the most advanced in the world, serving close to 1.5 billion subscribers and millions of enterprises, and I am very pleased that we extend our partnership with TST to contribute in making the network infrastructure in China become even more resilient.”
