Symmetricom®, Inc. (NASDAQ:SYMM), a worldwide leader in precise time and frequency technologies, announced today that it is offering a new low phase noise (LPN) option for its MHM 2010 Active Hydrogen Maser (Microwave Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation). In addition, the product is now CE-compliant making it more attractive for sale in Europe. The new LPN module provides a 10dBc improvement in close-to-the-carrier phase noise enabling higher resolution measurements in radio astronomy applications and other high precision metrological applications throughout the world.

Doug Lowrie, product marketing manager for Symmetricom’s maser product line noted, “Our MHM 2010 Maser has long defined the standard for atomic clock stability, with proven reliability and superior support and service. Now, with the new low phase noise option, we are able to improve the performance of our Maser for metrology and radio astronomy customers by enabling higher resolution measurements and observations.”

A significant portion of Symmetricom’s radio astronomy customer base utilizes VLBI (very long baseline interferometry) technology. VLBI focuses a beam from several antennas scattered across a vast geographic area that are in turn aimed at common distant sources in outer space. The array of telescopes combined has a baseline, equal to the maximum separation between the telescopes. The signals received by the various antennas need to be tightly time stamped as they are recorded. This allows the correlation of each telescope’s information so that the final output is in the form of one image, with greatly enhanced detail. Lowrie explained, “Our customers want to be able to use higher frequencies for each telescope which will in turn provide higher resolution images. A LPN mode capability is a requirement for using these higher frequencies.”

About Symmetricom’s MHM 2010 Maser

With more than 100 units installed world-wide, Symmetricom’s MHM 2010 is the most widely installed Maser product in the world. More than 30 of the masers installed in the field have been operating for longer than 15 years on a single charge of hydrogen. The new LPN option for Symmetricom’s MHM 2010 is provided as a factory installed option.
