High quality synchronization is an essential infrastructure component to ensure all network elements perform at maximum efficiency, which is required for the smooth transmission of voice, video and data. Investing in the network foundation is a critical step towards supporting next-generation services, optimizing bandwidth utilization, assuring network reliability and ensuring interoperability at boundaries where IP and circuit-switched networks meet. Join Symmetricom at the IEC 21st Century Communications World Forum to find out how precise synchronization and timing: --Is essential for end-to-end IPTV (Internet Protocol TV) Also called "TV over IP," IPTV delivers scheduled TV programs and video-on-demand (VOD) via the IP protocol and digital streaming techniques used to watch video on the Internet. Service Assurance --Facilitates Seamless Transition of TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) A technology that transmits multiple signals simultaneously over a single transmission path. Each lower-speed signal is time sliced into one high-speed transmission. Legacy Infrastructure and Interoperability --Is crucial to delivering Circuit Emulation Services --Enables Next-Generation Cable Network Capabilities --Is necessary for wireless mobility applications, such as GSM and UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) The GSM implementation of the 3G wireless phone system. Part of IMT-2000, UMTS provides service in the 2 GHz band and offers global roaming and personalized features. The 21st Century Communications World Forum 2006 will analyze the business and technology requirements for making convergent IP communications on a carrier scale a reality in today's world. In 2005, the inaugural 21st Century Communications World Forum drew more than 2,000 registrants eager to discuss the latest advances behind the move toward customer-centric information and communications technologies. The 21st Century Communications World Forum exhibition is a must-see show for ICT (1) (Information and Communications Technology) An umbrella term for the information technology field. See IT.
