Oscilloquartz is expanding the range of Iridium positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) capabilities available across its synchronization portfolio.

The latest integration, done in collaboration with Iridium Communications, brings resilient PNT to a broader range of applications. It strengthens end-to-end, multi-layered assured PNT architectures for critical infrastructure, defense and other GNSS-dependent applications.

“Organizations are adopting layered PNT architectures to improve resilience and reduce dependence on any single timing or positioning source,” said Rohit Braggs, VP of PNT at Iridium. “Working with Oscilloquartz extends the reach of Iridium PNT services, making it easier for customers to deploy resilient, multi-source PNT architectures.“

Expanded support for Iridium PNT services extends resilient timing and positioning capabilities across the Oscilloquartz synchronization portfolio, including ruggedSync and edgeSync PTP grandmasters and NTP servers, accessSync miniature PTP grandmasters, and OSAinside embedded synchronization solutions. As an authorized reseller of Iridium services, Oscilloquartz enables customers to purchase both Iridium PNT service subscriptions and the synchronization solutions that leverage them through a single trusted supplier.

Support for Iridium’s service tiers — Iridium PNT Time, Iridium PNT Locate and Iridium PNT Navigate — enables organizations to integrate resilient satellite-based timing and positioning across a broader range of applications.

By leveraging common software, synchronization management and core timing technologies across the Oscilloquartz portfolio, customers benefit from a consistent deployment and management experience as they extend resilient PNT capabilities across their networks.

“For more than 75 years, Oscilloquartz has delivered trusted timing and synchronization technologies for the world’s most demanding networks,” said Igal Pinhasov, VP of product line management at Oscilloquartz. “By expanding the range of Iridium PNT capabilities across our synchronization portfolio, customers can build on the same proven timing technologies they already trust, simplifying integration while maintaining the consistency and reliability expected from mission-critical synchronization systems.”
