Datum's New Software Cuts Costs of Network Synchronization Operations; SynCraft Offers Industry's First Remote Network Element Management.Business Editors & High-Tech Writers AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 13, 2002 Datum The singular form of data; for example, one datum. It is rarely used, and data, its plural form, is commonly used for both singular and plural. Inc., (Nasdaq:DATM DATM Dummy Air Training Missile DATM DISA ATM Network DATM Data Mode (Naval data analysis) DATM Drums Along the Mohawk (Rome, NY Drum Corp International Competition) DATM Derby Area Transport Model ) a leading global supplier of carrier-class synchronization (1) See synchronous and synchronous transmission. (2) Ensuring that two sets of data are always the same. See data synchronization. (3) Keeping time-of-day clocks in two devices set to the same time. See NTP. solutions, today announced the availability of SynCraft(tm), an application that enables telecommunications carriers to remotely manage Datum's individual NetSyncPLUS(R) network elements thereby increasing overall network performance and reducing costs. In the past, network operators were forced to assign a field engineer to drive to remote facilities to maintain, provision, and diagnose synchronization status. Now users can monitor performance as though they were physically in front of the units. "Simplified operation decreases maintenance costs and is an essential tool for carriers to manage the synchronization performance of their network," said Datum-Austin Product Manager Terry Baldwin. "SynCraft not only allows our customers to fully maintain our products without having to be on site, but the graphical user interface graphical user interface (GUI) Computer display format that allows the user to select commands, call up files, start programs, and do other routine tasks by using a mouse to point to pictorial symbols (icons) or lists of menu choices on the screen as opposed to having to also makes it extremely easy to use." SynCraft has a suite of embedded Inserted into. See embedded system. element operation tools to simplify the job functions of network technicians. Full operation, administration, maintenance and provisioning (OAM&P) can be performed either locally or remotely through a standard, user-friendly graphical interface See GUI. .
