Zhongxin Chuangwei provides precise clock synchronization for Zhejiang China Tobacco Industry Co., Ltd.

 

 

Recently, China Tobacco issued a request for a time server. Beijing Zhongxin Chuang promptly collaborated to develop a detailed proposal and recommended its self‑developed and manufactured DNTS‑8 time server as the product for this tender. Following a fiercely competitive bidding process, Zhongxin Chuang stood out by virtue of its high‑quality products and comprehensive after‑sales service, ultimately securing the contract. Ultimately won China Tobacco Time and Step server project.

   Zhejiang China Tobacco Industry Co., Ltd. was restructured from Zhejiang China Tobacco Industry Company and is among the first batch of provincial-level industrial enterprises in the tobacco industry to establish a board of directors system.

China Tobacco Developed independently by Zhongxin Chuang DNTS-8 The time server underwent rigorous testing, and the results consistently exceeded the specified performance parameters. We are highly satisfied with both the product’s quality and our after-sales service, and have proceeded smoothly with procurement and deployment.

  

           

 

 

 

    

   

   The DNTS-8 time server, developed by Beijing Zhongxinchuang Technology Co., Ltd., is a high-tech, intelligent, stand-alone clock synchronization server that operates based on the NTP/SNTP protocols and delivers high precision. The DNTS-8 time server obtains standard clock signal information from GPS geostationary satellites and transmits this information across the network, enabling devices requiring time signals—such as computers and controllers—to synchronize with the standard clock. When all receivers lose signal, the DNTS-8 relies on its built-in temperature-compensated crystal oscillator for timekeeping, achieving a timing accuracy of up to 1E-9. The DNTS-8 uses standard clock information transmitted over TCP/IP networks and supports multiple popular time‑broadcasting protocols, including NTP and time/UDP; it can also accommodate custom time‑broadcast packets defined by Zhongxinchuang Technology, with configurable UDP ports. The port numbers for NTP and time/UDP are fixed at 123 and 37, respectively, as specified in RFC-123 and RFC-37. Additionally, the DNTS-8 supports the broadcast mode of the SNTP protocol.
