With the rapid expansion of networks to keep the modern world moving, improving network availability and reliability has never been more crucial. An integral part of most large communication systems, synchronisation is responsible for aligning timings and frequency between devices across a large geographical area.
Watch now: See how Cherry & White is turning market-leading Safran capability into deployable solutions for Defence customers.

Safran Synchronisation Solutions for Defence
Cherry & White is a Safran Approved Systems Integrator for UK Defence Infrastructure. Building on our experience in critical communications, we integrate Safran Electronics & Defense technologies to deliver secure, high-precision timing and synchronisation across defence and commercial networks.
Safran provides advanced expertise in PNT (Positioning, Navigation and Timing), core and access transmission, and managed network services, ensuring reliable operation even in GNSS-denied environments.
SecureSync® 2400 Time Server
When seconds matter, even small timing errors can disrupt communications or compromise operations. The SecureSync® 2400 ensures precise, continuous synchronisation across defence and critical infrastructure.
Delivers:
-
Multi-GNSS support (GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, BeiDou)
-
High-performance NTP/PTP Grandmaster timing
-
Resilient timekeeping using TCXO, OCXO, or Rubidium
-
Secure network management and M-Code capability
A flexible, modular platform built for environments where uptime and accuracy are essential.
CXR QX3440-E
Legacy networks often struggle to integrate modern IP services without disrupting existing systems. The QX3440-E bridges that gap by combining TDM and IP services securely and efficiently.
Key advantages:
-
Simplifies migration from TDM to IP
-
Provides flexible timing with SyncE and adaptive clock recovery
-
Enables secure remote management
-
Modular design with hot-swappable interfaces for continuous operation
Ensures reliable communication across multi-technology defence and critical networks.
8230AJ GPS/GNSS Anti-Jam Antenna
Signal interference can disrupt GPS-dependent systems and compromise operations. The 8230AJ Anti-Jam Antenna protects critical infrastructure by detecting and rejecting interference from unwanted sources.
Features:
-
High-gain, multi-constellation GNSS support
-
IP67-rated for harsh environments
-
Strong signal filtering and horizon-level interference rejection
Maintains stable positioning and timing even in high-interference conditions.

The Model 8230AJ is a high gain (40 dB) GNSS anti-jamming antenna for outdoor conditions. It uses a three-stage low noise amplifier, a mid-section SAW, and a tight pre-filter to protect against saturation by high level sub-harmonics and L-band signals. This GNSS / GPS anti-jam technology rejects signals for the lower elevation angles – where most of the interference comes from.
