Product Overview
Juniper Networks CTP Series Circuit to Packet Platforms provide the advanced technology and features required to reliably transport time- division multiplexing and other circuit-based applications across next-generation IP/MPLS networks. The CTP Series has the field-proven flexibility, performance and reliability required for circuit applications.
The CTP Series technology includes many advanced clocking options and per-circuit buffers to enable end-to-end timing and the removal of jitter to create a psuedowire across the IP/MPLS network. The CTP Series enables customers to connect digital and analog voice applications easily and reliably across the IP network using circuit emulation over IP, bringing them the advantages of converged multiservice IP networking without the complexities and cost of upgrades required for VoIP. The CTP Series bridges the legacy and IP world and provides many unique features that enable cost reduction by eliminating point-to-point circuits and convergence of all applications onto one IP/MPLS network.
Product Description
With the ongoing deployment of IP networks, the efficiency and cost-savings gains of IP are being realized for a variety of applications and functions. Largely left out of this evolution have been the circuit-based applications such as time- division multiplexing (TDM) leased line and voice private branch exchange (PBX) connections, serial encryption connections, and analog and digital radio systems networking, because their synchronous transport requirements are not addressed by a packet-based network. The Juniper Networks® CTP Series Circuit to Packet Platforms enable customers to connect these circuit-based applications easily and reliably across the IP network, bringing them the advantages of converged multiservice IP networking.
The CTP Series includes the Juniper Networks CTP151, CTP2008, CTP2024, CTP2056 Circuit to Packet Platforms, and the Juniper Networks CTPView Network Management System. The products are designed for government agencies, enterprises and service providers running circuit-based applications and range in size, port capacity and redundancy options.
