VIAVI Solutions Inc. launched the EdgeGM 7000 on February 11, 2025, a highly resilient Edge Grandmaster Clock that builds on its industry-leading SecurePNT portfolio. This new solution offers up to 25G Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and multi-orbit SecureTime altGNSS for comprehensive assurance of Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) services. These services are crucial for critical infrastructure operations worldwide.
Essential networks, including 5G/6G telecommunications, AI hyperscale data centers, defense, public safety, transportation, aviation, energy, and finance, rely on publicly available GPS and GNSS signals. These signals are vulnerable to jamming or spoofing, with potentially catastrophic consequences. Governments globally are mandating that critical infrastructure providers improve the resilience of their networks through more responsible use of PNT services.
The EdgeGM 7000 integrates advanced and scalable resiliency and PTP speed capabilities in a compact, rack-mountable unit. It exceeds Level 4 PNT resiliency as specified in the IEEE P1252 standard and incorporates PTP profiles for multiple industries. Doug Russell, Senior Vice President, AvComm, VIAVI, stated that the EdgeGM 7000 enhances VIAVI's portfolio to stay ahead of a rapidly evolving threat landscape, providing powerful features in a flexible and scalable architecture.
