Investor Relations

Symmetricom leads the world in the design and manufacture of precise time and frequency products and services essential to communication, computation, transportation, space and many electronic systems. Our products bring critical timing, frequency and synchronization solutions to telecom, enterprise, and space, defense, and avionics networks in over 90 countries. In addition to generating time, Symmetricom products distribute and apply time, enabling a range of critical operations - from controlling or synchronizing the flow of voice, video, and data throughout communication networks, to securing mobile communications in warzones or facilitating complex navigation systems in space.

The network of GPS satellites, the Naval Observatory, and the National Institute of Standards and Technology rely on Symmetricom products for the ultimate in accuracy. These include atomic frequency references, such as rubidium, cesium and hydrogen masers, GPS time and frequency receivers, distribution systems and analysis software. Symmetricom technologies, including expertise in Network Time Protocol (NTP), Precision Time Protocol (IEEE 1588), and DOCSIS Timing Interface (DTI) are a fundamental part of the migration to Next-Generation Networks (NGN). Symmetricom is located in San Jose, Calif., with offices worldwide.

Brief History

From day one, innovation has been the foundation of our company. For more than fifty years Symmetricom has lead the industry by designing and manufacturing advanced electronic systems that combine state of the art engineering, unparalleled durability, and a relentless focus on our customer's needs. We shipped out first network synchronization product in 1986 and since then telecom companies, cable providers, and customers in government, military, and aerospace have relied on Symmetricom for precision timing, reference, and frequency signal equipment. With the acquisition of TrueTime, Inc. and Datum, Inc. in 2002, Agilent Technologies' Frequency and Time Standards product line in 2005, and Timing Solutions in 2006, we continue to lead the industry in timing and frequency products and services.

Now in our sixth decade, we continue to build on our heritage of innovation by developing critical new timing and frequency products and services that will enable the reliability, performance and efficiency of the world's next-generation communication, transportation and defense systems.

Organization

Symmetricom is organized into two core business groups:

Telecom Solutions Division (TSD)

Telecom Solutions Division provides network timing and synchronization equipment and components to the global communications industry for wireline, wireless and cable networks. Our products provide the critical infrastructure that ensures information, voice, video, or data is transmitted accurately and reliably across traditional narrowband and next generation digital broadband networks.

Timing, Test and Measurement Division (TT&M)

Timing, Test and Measurement Division provides equipment to generate and distribute precise time and frequency to a wide variety of industries including IT networks, government laboratories, metrology services and space, defense and avionics contractors. Our products include state-of-the-art atomic frequency references designed for ultra-precise timing, testing, verification and measurement of time and frequency-based signals.
