CTP SERIES CIRCUIT TO PACKET

PLATFORMS DATASHEET

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.

Product Features

CTP151

The CTP151 Circuit to Packet Platform supports 4 to 8 interfaces of circuit emulation traffic in a 1 U rack-

mountable chassis. It provides T1/E1 and serial interface options in a powerful future-proofed chassis. The

CTP151 is a functional replacement for the legacy CTP150, which is still widely deployed.

CTP2008 The CTP2008 Circuit to Packet Platform is a 1 U rack-mountable chassis that supports up to 8 circuit emulation

interfaces. The interface modules are software configurable and are the same across the CTP2000 line.

CTP2024 The CTP2024 Circuit to Packet Platform is a 2 U 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 U 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.
