China Telecom Shanghai Deploys Juniper's TX Matrix Core Routers

China Telecom Shanghai is expanding its core IP network with Juniper Networks T-series core routing platforms, including the TX Matrix multi-terabit router. The T-series platforms will be added to Shanghai Telecom's existing base of Juniper Networks E- and M-series routing platforms and will provide the additional capacity, reliability and scale required to support increased demand for advanced IP-based services.



Shanghai Telecom currently uses Juniper Networks M-series multiservice platforms in smaller core sites and previously deployed the E-series Broadband Services Routers. The E-series routing platforms support Shanghai's ADSL subscribers, providing the advanced routing capabilities that will enable Shanghai Telecom's IPTV service.



The TX Matrix combines multiple T640 platforms to deliver multi-terabit scale.



Juniper said over 1,000 of its T-series core routers have been deployed in over 100 service provider production networks worldwide since the platform was launched in 2002.
