NEW DELHI, INDIA: Juniper introduced a series of new applications and services in voice, video and other multimedia services.

Building on the intelligent services edge portfolio, these new features simplify networks and facilitate convergence for enterprises, government agencies and service providers by integrating key service delivery and performance functions directly within the routing platforms and IP network infrastructure.

 Additionally, Juniper is delivering hardware and software features that reduce costs by enabling customers to leverage investments in legacy voice and data networking equipment while they migrate to next-generation IP transport networks and services.

“As the world continues to move to IP, we see the requirement for SBC functionality as a strong growth opportunity,” said Diane Myers, Directing Analyst, Service Provider VoIP and IMS, Infonetics Research, Inc.

Together, these enhancements facilitate the transport of voice, radio, data and many other types of traffic over a single, converged IP/MPLS infrastructure.
