Juniper Networks Extends Mobile Solutions Portfolio

Juniper Networks, Inc. has announced that it is broadening its mobile solutions portfolio with the addition of an integrated set of new hardware systems and software features for mobile backhaul. As part of the portfolio, Juniper has introduced the BX 7000 Multi-Access Gateway for the cell site and new M-series Circuit Emulation Physical Interface Cards (PICs) for the aggregation site. The solution introduces comprehensive network management capabilities through new enhancements to the JUNOScope framework, as well as the capability for zero-touch deployments.

As mentioned in the official press release, the BX 7000 will feature a timing expansion module that protects network investments and provides a wide range of timing synchronisation options. Additionally, the BX 7000 provides an expansion slot that will offer maximum flexibility for backhaul network uplinks. Mobile operators can retain their existing investments in 2G and 3G cell sites. Services can be migrated gradually by offloading the high-growth data transport as a first step.
