Zhongxin Chuangwei provides clock synchronization equipment to Guilin Bank Co., Ltd.

Recently, Guilin Bank Co., Ltd. issued a tender for a time server. Beijing Zhongxin Chuang promptly collaborated to develop a detailed proposal and recommended its independently developed and manufactured DNTS‑9 time server 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 Guilin Bank Co., Ltd.’s time‑server project.

Founded in 1997, Guilin Bank is a state‑controlled commercial bank with independent legal status. After years of development, it has grown into Guangxi’s largest financial institution by asset size, distinguished by its unique business profile, strong core competencies, a reputable brand image, and a lean, highly efficient team. As of March 31, 2024, Guilin Bank has established branches across all 12 prefecture‑level cities in Guangxi, operating a total of 172 branch offices—86 of which are located in county‑level areas—alongside 671 community and micro‑small enterprise branches, including 500 situated in towns and rural communities, as well as nearly 7,000 comprehensive rural inclusive finance service points. In regions where it has a presence, the bank provides financial services covering 100% of counties, 66% of townships, and 57% of administrative villages.

Guilin Bank takes Party building as its guiding principle, effectively establishing a modern corporate governance system characterized by the coordinated operation of the “Three Meetings and One Layer.” It firmly upholds the values of “self‑driven, resilient, responsible, collaborative, and striving for excellence,” and adheres to the work ethos of “high standards, integrity, rigor, professionalism, pragmatism, warmth, and dedication,” thereby fostering a positive and uplifting corporate culture. The bank has meticulously developed the Party‑building brand “Grateful to Our Hometown, Red Guilin Bank,” ensuring the deep integration of Party building with business operations.

Guilin Bank Co., Ltd. aims to build a world-class banking group with distinctive strengths, anchoring its entire business strategy in green finance. The bank is committed to developing four core business pillars—inclusive finance, trade finance, technology‑driven finance, and wealth management—while continuously enhancing five key areas of expertise: customer‑centric operations, technology‑led innovation, risk management, cross‑functional collaboration, and resource allocation. Guided by innovative breakthroughs in Shanghai’s “main‑venue” development and digital transformation, the bank is driving high‑quality growth across all its operations.

With the approval of the National Administration of Financial Regulation, the Bank provides comprehensive financial services—including deposits and loans, supply-chain finance, cash management, international settlement and trade finance, investment banking, asset custody, wealth management, bank cards, private banking, and treasury operations—to 2.6192 million corporate clients and 192 million retail customers through online channels such as mobile banking and internet banking, as well as via more than 2,800 domestic branches and 23 overseas branches and representative offices. The Group, through wholly owned or controlling subsidiaries, operates in such business areas as financial leasing, fund management, wealth management, trust services, insurance, overseas securities, and debt-to-equity swaps.

Guilin Bank Co., Ltd. conducted an in-depth evaluation of the DNTS-9 time server independently developed by Zhongxin Chuang, and the results exceeded all specified performance parameters. The bank expressed strong satisfaction with both the product’s quality and our after-sales service, proceeding to place a successful order and put the system into operation.

The DNTS-9 network time server, developed by Beijing Zhongxinchuang Technology Co., Ltd., is an intelligent, high-precision NTP network time server. The DNTS-9 obtains standard time information from the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System and provides standard time services over the network via NTP/SNTP or other network protocols. Devices in the network that require time synchronization—such as personal computers, servers, and controllers—can synchronize with international standard time. When using a GNSS satellite receiver, users can define priority levels and configure single-receiver/dual-receiver or single-antenna/dual-antenna setups; each receiver can be set to operate in standalone or combined timing modes. If both receivers and other available time sources lose signal, the DNTS-9 relies on its built-in rubidium atomic clock for timekeeping and continues to provide uninterrupted time services to external clients.

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 precise 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. Installation and operation of the DNTS‑9HG network time server are exceptionally straightforward: simply connect the satellite receiving antenna and link the Ethernet port to a network switch to achieve time synchronization for all devices on the network.

◆GNSS satellite reference clock, with a built-in temperature-compensated crystal oscillator or rubidium atomic clock, serving as a stratum‑1 network time server.

◆ High throughput enables simultaneous synchronization of the clocks of tens of thousands of clients, servers, workstations, and other devices.

◆ Six 10/100/1000M Ethernet ports are available, enabling easy network configuration and deployment, and facilitating system upgrades.

◆ Supports management via SSH, Telnet, Web, SNMP, and DNTS-Manager, enabling easy remote network login, administration, configuration, and maintenance.

◆ A single device with multiple network interfaces, or multiple devices with multiple network interfaces, can be configured to use the same IP address for hot backup.

◆High reliability, with an MTBF of 90,000 hours

◆ Supports heartbeat detection and hot switchover across multiple devices and network interfaces.
