Introducing CTP Series Platforms
Juniper Networks CTP Series Circuit to Packet platforms 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 Series platforms create an IP packet flow from a serial data or
analog voice connection at one end and provide the necessary processing to re-create the serial bit stream
or analog signal from the received packet flow at the other end.
CTP Series platforms provide compact and lightweight chassis, high port density, and multiple Ethernet
interfaces. Each CTP Series platform runs the CTP operating system (CTPOS) and can be managed by the
Juniper Networks CTPView Network Management System. The CTPView Network Management System
is a secure, Web-based management tool for provisioning, managing, running diagnostics, monitoring, and
reporting on all CTP Series devices and circuits in the network.
CTP2000 Series Processor
Starting with CTPOS Release 6.6, Juniper Networks CTP2000 Series Circuit to Packet platforms support
the PP833 processors (see
processors.
The front panel of the PP833 processor comprises the following components (see
Figure 1 on page 3) in addition to the older PP310 and PP332 family of
