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 CTP150, 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.
PRODUCT FEATURES
CTP150 The CTP150 Circuit to Packet Platform supports 4 to 8 interfaces of circuit emulation
trac in a 1 RU rack mountable chassis. The 4-port interface options include T1/E1
and serial, and they interwork with any CTP Series product.
CTP2008 The CTP2008 Circuit to Packet Platform is a 1 RU rack mountable chassis that
supports up to 8 circuit emulation interfaces. The interface modules are soware
configurable and are the same across the CTP2000 line.
CTP2024 The CTP2024 Circuit to Packet Platform is a 2 RU rack mountable chassis that
supports up to 24 circuit emulation interfaces. The chassis includes the option for
redundant power.
CTP2056 The CTP2056 Circuit to Packet Platform is a 4 RU rack mountable chassis that
supports up to 56 circuit emulation interfaces. The chassis includes the option for
redundant power.
CTPView The CTPView Network Management System provides network operators with the
tools necessary to monitor network availability, report on IP networks performance,
provision circuits, and troubleshoot circuit issues through a web-based GUI.
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 buers 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.
