Congratulations to the Formosa Plastics Group on procuring the newly developed NTP time server equipment.


Congratulations to the Formosa Plastics Group on procuring the newly developed NTP time server equipment.

 

 

Recently, the Formosa Plastics Group issued a procurement announcement for NTP time servers. Beijing Zhongxin Chuang Co., Ltd. proactively collaborated to develop a detailed proposal for the client and recommended its independently developed and manufactured DNTS‑9 model as the bid‑winning product. Following a fiercely competitive bidding process, Zhongxin Chuang stood out thanks to its high‑quality products and comprehensive after‑sales service, ultimately securing the contract for the Formosa Plastics Group’s time server project.

Founded in 1954, the company has, over more than fifty years of dedicated effort, grown to a capital base of NT$57.3 billion. The Wang Yung-ching family, part of the Formosa Plastics Group, is one of the postwar era’s most prominent and influential clans, with a large number of members who are almost all employed and advancing within the family‑related enterprises. Although no member of the Wang family has entered politics, Wang Yung-ching has long been a leading figure in Taiwan’s business community, enjoying considerable prestige and influence both within industry and society. As a result, the Wang family wields significant sway over the political sphere and maintains strong ties between business and government.

Formosa Plastics Group conducted an in-depth evaluation of the DNTS‑9 time server independently developed by Zhongxin Chuang. The results consistently exceeded the specified performance parameters, and the group expressed high satisfaction with both our product quality and after-sales service, resulting in a successful procurement and deployment.

 

 

In addition to serving as a primary‑level network time‑synchronization device, the DNTS‑9 can also function as a secondary‑level time server, enabling more effective time synchronization in large‑scale network environments. It provides high‑precision standard time signals for systems such as distributed networks, computer security systems, file management systems, e‑commerce platforms, online B2B systems, and cloud database storage and maintenance. The DNTS‑9 has been successfully deployed across government, finance, mobile telecommunications, public security, petroleum, power, transportation, industrial, and defense sectors.

The DNTS-9 network time server is extremely easy to install and use: simply connect the satellite receiving antenna and plug the network port into a network switch, and you can achieve time synchronization across all devices on the network.
