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 Figure 1 on page 3) in addition to the older PP310 and PP332 family of processors.
The front panel of the PP833 processor comprises the following components (see Figure 1 on page 3):

about the PMC module, see “CTP2000 PMC Module” on page 30 and “Installing a PMC on CTP2000
Platforms” on page 99.
Ethernet connection—Provides the 1-Gbps Ethernet connection to the IP network by means of a local
Ethernet switch or router.
Console connection—Provides an asynchronous tty connection for locally configuring the CTP Series
device. Because of front panel space limitations, the PP833 processor provides an RS232 serial console via a supplied USB-to-DB9 cable (p/n 720-071594), in which the DB-9 connector has the same pinout as a standard RS-232 DTE port.

CTP2008 Platform

The Juniper Networks CTP2008 Circuit to Packet platform is a 3-U high, full-rack wide chassis designed for tabletop or shelf installation. It can also be installed in a rack with the supplied rack-mounting kit. The CTP2008 platform has one removable interface module and one removable processor module, and is available in both AC-powered and DC-powered versions. It has a removable fan tray, and airflow is side-to-side. Figure 2 on page 3, Figure 3 on page 4, and Figure 4 on page 5 show the CTP2008 chassis containing the PP332 processor (which requires an RTM card for Ethernet and console port accesses). The new PP833 processor module does not require an RTM card. All PP833 module access is located on the front panel with all CTP serial and T1/E1 ports. If you are upgrading from the old PP310 or PP332 processor to the PP833 processor, the RTM card may be left in the node. But, none of the interfaces (Ethernet or serial ports) on the RTM panel are functional.

applications with CESoPSN bundles.
Four-wire audio interfaces with E and M signaling interfaces (4WE&M) are commonly used as trunks between a central office (CO) and a private branch exchange (PBX). E and M is a type of supervisory line signaling that uses separate leads, called the "E" (ear) lead and "M" (mouth) lead and are traditionally used in the telecommunications industry. In 4WE&M signaling, two wires are used to receive and two wires are used to transmit, incorporating simplex control and differential payload in each channel. Type I, II, and V signaling is supported.
The 4WE&M interface module consists of a front card and a rear transition module (RTM). Port interfaces are located on connectors A and B of the RTM. (See Figure 15 on page 15 and Figure 16 on page 15.) The RJ-45 connectors are not used.
Figure 15: CTP2000 4WE&M Module

Figure 16: 4WE&M RTM
CAUTION: Power to the RTM is supplied from the interface module. Using an RTM
other than those matched to the interface module may result in damage to both the interface module and the RTM. For example, never install a clock module RTM directly behind a 4WE&M interface module.
Voice ports can be used only by voice compression bundles (VCOMP) and cannot be used for CTP, SAToP, or CESoPSN bundles. There is no software configuration of 4WE&M ports. Signaling type is configured by means of jumpers (see Figure 18 on page 16 and Table 1 on page 16). One or more 4WE&M ports can be mapped to a VCOMP bundle. The bundle configuration specifies the remote destination, the local port or ports transported by the bundle, voice compression options, as well as other configuration options.

Jumper JP26 is used to connect all signal grounds (SG) to the chassis ground. When jumper JP26 is in Position 1-2, the signal ground is connected to the chassis ground. In Position 2-3, it is isolated from the chassis ground.

The rear transition board uses two RJ-21 25-pair Telco connectors labeled A and B to interface the audio and control connections for eight E&M channels.
NOTE: Because of space limitations, a 180º RJ-21 connector is required. The CTP 4WE&M RTM
supports clips to secure the RJ-21 cable connections to the RTM.
The R1/T1 pair and the R/T pair are the audio inputs and outputs of each port, respectively. For example, the audio input pair for port 0 is R1 and T1 on pins 2 and 27 of connector A. The audio output pair for port 0 is R and T on pins 1 and 26.
See Table 2 on page 18 for signal definitions. See “CTP2000 4WE&M Interface Connector Pinouts” on
page 45 for the connector A and B pinouts.

Signal ground. E and M leads are referenced to this ground for signaling types

Supervisory Signaling
Supervisory signaling is the means by which a telephone user requests a service or initiates a call. The signaling unit (CTP platform) interacts with the trunk unit (PBX) by means of either two or four leads, depending on the signaling type. (See Figure 19 on page 19.) The signaling unit controls the E lead, whereas the trunk side controls the M lead. The two signaling states are on-hook and off-hook. During inactivity both units are on-hook. See Table 3 on page 20 for a summary of signaling types supported by the CTP2000 4WE&M module.
NOTE: 4WE&M and 4WTO audio paths are always up independent of the signaling state.

Type I uses two leads—the E and M leads—for signaling. During inactivity, the E lead is open and the M-lead is connected to ground. The CTP device connects the E lead to a grounding point to signal off-hook, and the PBX connects the M lead to the battery (–48 V) to signal off-hook. Note that two signaling units cannot be connected back-to-back. With type I signaling, the signaling and trunk units must be connected by means of a common ground. Because the two sides are not isolated, they are susceptible to noise in the audio channels.
Type II uses four leads—E, SG, M, and SB—for signaling. During inactivity, both the E and M leads are open. To signal off-hook, the PBX connects the M lead to SB and the CTP device connects the E lead to SG. Note that two signaling units can be connected back-to-back if the appropriate signaling leads are swapped. With Type II signaling, the signaling unit and the trunk do not share a common ground.
Type V uses two leads, the E and M leads, for signaling. During inactivity, both the E and M leads are open. The CTP device signals off-hook by connecting the E lead to ground. The trunk circuit signals off-hook by connecting the M lead to ground. As with type I, with type V signaling, the two units share a common ground. Type V signaling allows for signaling units to be connected back-to-back.

CTP2000 2W-FXS and 2W-FXO Interface Modules

The CTP2000 2W-FXS and CTP2000 2W-FXO interface modules provide analog support for voice applications. The 2W-FXS module has 24 two-wire FXS ports and the 2W-FXO interface module has 12 two-wire FXS ports. Both are paired with an RTM.
FXS interfaces point to the subscriber and supply battery and ring voltage. Some FXS devices also provide
dial tone, but CTP FXS interfaces do not. FXS interfaces detect when the attached FXO interface goes off-hook and on-hook. An FXS interface is a two-wire interface; the leads are called the tip (T) and the ring (R).
FXO interfaces point to the central office. An analog phone is an example of an FXO device. The FXO
interface must detect ring voltage (the analog phone rings) and provide on- and off-hook indication to
the FXS interface. An FXO interface is a two-wire interface; the leads are called the tip (T) and the ring

Both modules use connector A on the RTM. For both modules, connector B and the RJ-45 connectors are not used. See “CTP2000 FXS and FXO Interface Module Cables and Pinouts” on page 48 for connector pinout information.
You set the signaling by using the software on both modules. You cannot reconfigure the jumper parameters.
Required Cables and Pinouts
The CTP2000 2W-FXS and 2W-FXO interface modules require the use of double-shielded cables (copper braid plus aluminum mylar foil) to ensure EMI compliance. See “CTP2000 FXS and FXO Interface Module
Cables and Pinouts” on page 48 for particulars about cable pinouts.
Analog FXS/FXO Loop-Start Signaling
There are two basic signaling protocols for FXS/FXO interfaces: loop-start and ground-start. Residential telephones use loop-start. Ground-start is typically used between a CO and a PBX to prevent “glare.” Glare occurs when a call is established by the FXS device and the FXO device tries to make a call before the ring has been detected.
When a call is initiated from the CO (or FXS) side, the FXS interface puts an AC ring voltage on the R lead (typically 70-90 Vrms). This ring voltage generates the ringing that you hear on an analog phone. When the FXO device answers the call (someone picks up the handset), the switch is closed between the T and R leads to complete a loop between the battery and ground in the FXS device. The FXS device detects the current, which flows from the battery (–48 V) through the R leads and back through the T leads to ground and stops the ring voltage.
22
When a call is initiated by the CPE (or FXO) device, the device goes off-hook, closing the connection between the T and R leads. The FXS device senses the current flow in the loop. Either the attached FXS device, or an upstream FXS device, provides dial tone to the FXO device after it is ready to accept the digits for the call destination. Providing dial tone is a form of start-dial supervision.
On the FXO device, when the device is on-hook, there is an open lead between the T and R leads. When the device is off-hook, the T and R leads are shorted with a typical load of ~300 Ohms. With loop-start, the T and R leads on the FXO interface can be switched without adversely affecting the signaling.
Glare occurs when a call is established by the FXS device and the FXO tries to make a call before the ring has been detected. Because it takes time for the FXO device (or person about to place a call) to detect ringing, it is possible for the FXS and FXO devices to both seize the line without knowledge that the other end has done so. Ground-start circuits were established the minimize the possibility of glare. See “Analog
FXS/FXO Ground-Start Signaling” on page 23.
Answer Supervision
Answer supervision is a signal used by the phone companies to determine when to start billing the originator of the call. Without answer supervision, you could get billed for the time the phone was ringing, even if the call was never picked up. When the FXS device has detected that the FXO device has gone off-hook, it reverses the polarity between the T and R leads for the duration of the call.
Disconnect Supervision
Disconnect supervision is a signal sent by the FXS device to the FXO device to indicate that the call has ended. The disconnect supervision signal can be either a battery reversal, battery denial (more than 350 ms), or a tone.
Note that loop-start circuits are not sensitive to tip/ring reversal. For example, the tip on the FXO device may be connected to either the tip or ring on the FXS.
Analog FXS/FXO Ground-Start Signaling
Ground-start signaling is used to minimize the potential for glare. Unlike loop-start circuits, ground-start circuits operate correctly only when the FXO tip is connected to the FXS tip and the FXO ring is connected to the FXS ring. Also, unlike loop-start circuits, the FXS and FXO grounds must be at the same potential.
When on-hook, the FXO ring is not connected to either the tip or ground. Likewise, when idle, the FXS tip is not connected to ground. When a call is initiated from the CO (FXS side), the FXS grounds its tip and applies an AC ring voltage to the R lead. The FXO device senses the grounded tip and AC ring voltage, and then goes off-hook by closing the loop (connecting R to T). The FXO has 100 ms to respond to the grounded tip/ring voltage. This time constraint is used to minimize glare. Once the FXO has closed the loop, the call proceeds as in the loop-start case.
When a call is initiated by the customer (FXO) side, the FXO starts by grounding the R lead. The FXS side responds by grounding its T lead. After the FXO has detected the grounded T lead, it closes the loop by removing the R lead from ground and closing the loop. With ground-start circuits, a far-end disconnect (FXS side) is indicated by the FXS disconnecting the tip from ground. The FXO senses the tip disconnect and goes on-hook by opening the loop.

Digital Signaling
Channel banks are often used to multiplex and demultiplex FXS or FXO interfaces onto T1 or E1 digital circuits. In the process, the analog signal is converted into pulse code modulation (PCM) and carried by one of the channels in the time-division multiplexing (TDM) circuit. For the interface to function properly, it must be able to signal the remote end of the T1/E1 connection as well as respond to signals from the remote end. Signaling is carried over the TDM circuit using either channel-associated signaling (CAS) or common-channel signaling (CCS). Generally, four signaling bits (A, B, C, and D) may be used; however, two signaling bits are most common (A and B).
For CTP analog voice products to work with digital devices, A and B bits are generated and transported across the network.
Digital FXS/FXO Loop-Start Signaling
For loop-start signaling of FXS and FXO interfaces, the A bit is used to indicate the state of the current loop, whereas the B bit is used for ringing. In the idle state (no ringing, FXO on-hook), A=0 and B=1. A=1 when the FXO is off-hook. Ringing is signaled by the B bit toggling between 0 and 1. Typically the toggling is 2 seconds off and 4 seconds on. For digital loop-state, the signaling is bidirectional.
Because hook indication is detected by the analog FXS interface, this device is responsible for generating the A bit. Likewise, because the analog FXS interface generates the ring voltage, this device must respond
