Symmetricom®, Inc. (NASDAQ: SYMM), a worldwide leader in precision time and frequency technologies, today announced that it has signed an agreement to become the first official reseller of FSMLabs’ TimeKeeper™ software. FSMLabs TimeKeeper software client for precision timing protocol (PTP) paired with Symmetricom’s IEEE-1588/PTP SyncServer® S300/S350 time servers provides Linux applications in the enterprise, government, military, aerospace, and financial trading markets with enhanced accuracy in an end-to-end precise timing solution.

“Low latency and precise time stamping are increasingly critical for a variety of Linux-based applications. By providing our ultra precise, GPS-referenced SyncServer® S300/S350 network time server in concert with TimeKeeper’s synchronization of precision time into the application layer, we are delivering a best-in-class timing solution,” stated Paul Skoog, product marketing manager at Symmetricom’s Government Business Unit. “The products from the two companies are truly complementary and provide an essential timing solution to the enterprise.”

Victor Yodaiken, president of FSMLabs noted, “Together, TimeKeeper and Symmetricom have already gained significant acceptance in one of the most precision-driven applications imaginable, high-frequency and algorithmic trading operations in leading financial services firms. This agreement will make it easier for new customers to meld these two solutions, gaining the increased responsiveness and competitive edge of ultra high-precision timing.”
