See IP Multimedia Subsystem. ) rollout. The new deployment spans 17 cities, connecting softswitch systems and legacy routers. "After more than a year of intensive use, our earlier M-series deployment has demonstrated the superiority and flexibility of Juniper's JUNOS Operating System operating system (OS) Software that controls the operation of a computer, directs the input and output of data, keeps track of files, and controls the processing of computer programs. ," said Mr. Abdul Haris, PT Telkom's Director of Network and Solutions and the service provider's Chief Technology Officer. "We were also impressed by the routers' traffic engineering capability, strict QoS adherence even under extremely heavy load, and Juniper's high availability Also called "RAS" (reliability, availability, serviceability) or "fault resilient," it refers to a multiprocessing system that can quickly recover from a failure. There may be a minute or two of downtime while one system switches over to another, but processing will continue. features, such as fast reroute and in-service upgrading. We are confident to stay with Juniper and its routing solutions for our long-term NGN strategy." The M-series multiservice routers are part of the Juniper Networks family of best-of-class routing platforms which also include the market leading E-series Broadband Services Routers and T-series next-generation core routers. Juniper Networks E-, M- and T-series routing platforms deliver industry-leading levels of performance, reliability and scale to enable service providers to deliver high-quality voice, video, data and other advanced services over an IP/MPLS IP/MPLS Internet Protocol/Multi-Protocol Label Switching network with assured levels of performance and security. The T-series is the industry's most proven core routing platform and, with the multi-chassis TX Matrix technology, allows service providers to scale to multi-terabit rates without the risks associated with new and unproven technologies. "Our M-series deployment at PT Telkom is a great example of the benefits of migrating to a next generation IP/MPLS-based infrastructure," said Adam Judd, vice president of Asia Pacific for Juniper Networks. "Asia Pacific's need for capacity to deliver advanced services - including VoIP, realtime video See real time video. , broadband access See broadband and wireless broadband. , and VPN (Virtual Private Network) A private network that is configured within a public network (a carrier's network or the Internet) in order to take advantage of the economies of scale and management facilities of large networks. services - continues to grow, and service providers such as PT Telkom are leveraging Juniper's industry leading platforms to address this demand and capture new revenue opportunities."
