Accurate time has many essential applications in the transport industry including synchronisation of railway signalling systems, station clocks, airport check-in systems and passenger information displays, and of course, the critical synchronisation of Air Traffic Control systems.
In
Air Traffic Control, many sub-system vendors provide systems using serial, timecode or even parallel inputs for time data. The TFS modular approach allows these interfaces to be incorporated either at the system design phase or at a later date.
Airport Terminals require precise time, both for passenger information, but more importantly for integration into their increasingly complex IT systems. Time 'event-tagging' provides providing chronological audit trails for such key areas as safety and security.
A similar philosophy can be applied to
rail network timing systems. The plethora of third party equipments requiring time data ranges from safety critical systems such as signalling and voice and data recording equipment through to Passenger Information Displays and public clocks.
The highly versatile products from Time & Frequency Solutions offer a cost effective means of providing accurate time to a complex, multi-vendor IT system. Due to the product flexibility, Time & Frequency Solutions have been very successful in the supply of products for the transportation sector.
