Bitstream — a Polish manufacturer headquartered in Lublin — designs and produces in Europe telecommunications equipment for the energy, railway and intelligent transport, CCTV, telecom, uniformed services, and fuel industry sectors. Its catalog covers the full chain of a critical infrastructure network: industrial Ethernet switches, precision time servers, optical and media converters, signal multiplexers, and remote supervision systems.
The Hyperion family of managed switches ranges from compact DIN-rail format (Hyperion 105) to a modular 19" chassis with 8 hot-swap slots (Hyperion 500), with ITU-T G.8032 ring redundancy reconfiguring in under 20 ms, PRP/HSR support (IEC 62439-3), PTPv2 synchronization, and IEC 61850-3 / IEEE 1613 certification for substation environments with severe EMI and -40°C to +85°C temperatures.
The Quazar family of time servers spans from the IP65 outdoor master clock with integrated GNSS (Quazar 100) to synchronization quality analyzers for 5G networks (Quazar 700), with GNSS reference accuracy down to ±15 ns and support for PTPv2, SyncE, NTP, and IEEE C37.238 Power Profile. In an IEC 61850 digital substation or a railway signaling network, precise time synchronization between distributed equipment is the precondition for protection and control functions to operate correctly.
