Siemens and Juniper Networks have been selected by BT Group for a trial deployment in the carrier's 21C network project.
The 21C, or 21st century network, is BT's plan for a network offering consumer and business customers next-generation communication services.
The trials will include Siemens' SURPASS hiG 1200 Trunk Gateway. The carrier-grade Voice over IP (VoIP) trunk media gateway provides mediation between the core IP infrastructure of a next-generation network and the legacy circuit-switched network.
Juniper's IP/MPLS routing technology will also be provided to BT by Siemens. According to officials, the technology will deliver service convergence and operate at multi-Terabit speeds within the core of the network by using the T640 core router platform.
Developing and managing a network budget is hard work for network professionals, who often get hit with new projects that they know nothing about. Is there a better way to manage network spending?
Making the jump from outdated legacy technology to a more modern digital infrastructure will allow businesses to innovate at the speed and scale needed in today’s marketplace.
The business world is speeding up. The longer IT leaders wait to get their needs met, the more at risk their businesses and their jobs will be.
