Juniper Networks Circuit to Packet (CTP) products provide advanced technology and
features required to reliably transport legacy time-division multiplexing (TDM) and
other circuit-based applications across next-generation IP networks. CTP platforms
create an IP packet flow from a serial data or analog voice connection at one end
and provide the necessary processing to recreate the serial bit stream or analog signal
from the received packet flow at the other end.
CTP platforms provide compact and lightweight chassis, high port density, and
multiple Ethernet interfaces. Each CTP platform runs the CTP operating system
(CTPOS) and can be managed by CTPView, a secure, Web-based management tool
for provisioning, managing, running diagnostics, monitoring, and reporting on all
CTP platform devices and circuits in the network.
