Interesting to see a commercial company using leap seconds as
a positive marketing play.

ARE YOUR IT SYSTEMS READY to ADD a LEAP SECOND on DECEMBER 31, 2005?
A Leap Second will be added by the world's timekeepers on December 31, 2005. The leap second
insertion increases the length of the last minute of the UTC day to 61 seconds.
** The Effect of Leap Seconds on Symmetricom products **
Symmetricom has completed simulation testing of all of our time and frequency receivers, time
and frequency processor modules and network time servers to characterize their behaviors, and
then appropriately distribute the leap second information. This is not just our most recent
products, but also those that have been out in the field for a quite a while.
To find out the Leap Second test results for your Symmetricom product, or if you are
