Zhongxin Chuangwei provides clock synchronization equipment to Shanghai Tieda Telecommunications Technology.

 

Recently Shanghai Tieda Telecom Technology 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 offering high‑quality products and comprehensive after‑sales service, ultimately securing the contract over competitors’ offerings. And out, Awarded by Shanghai Tieda Telecommunications Technology Time Synchronize server project.

Shanghai Tieda Telecommunications Technology Co., Ltd. was established in 1992 Year is a high-tech enterprise integrating the R&D, manufacturing, sales, and service of railway, urban rail, and subway signaling systems. To ensure product quality, the company has established a comprehensive quality management system; our company… 1998 Passed in the year ISO9001 Following certification of the quality assurance system, in 2019 it was comprehensively updated and upgraded to international standards: the Quality Management System, the Environmental Management System, and the Occupational Health and Safety Management System. 2017 Passed in the year CMMI Level-3 assessment, holding Level-3 qualification for computer information system integration. Shanghai Tieda Telecommunications Technology Developed independently by Zhongxin Chuang DNTS-8 The time server underwent a thorough evaluation, with test results exceeding the specified performance criteria. We are highly satisfied with both the product quality and the after-sales service, and have successfully procured and put it into operation.

 

 

 

 

    

   

  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‑defined time‑broadcast packets from Zhongxinchuang Technology via 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.
