The Cisco IP Transfer Point (ITP) is a comprehensive product for transporting Signaling System 7 (SS7) traffic over traditional time-division multiplexing (TDM) networks or advanced SS7-over-IP (SS7oIP) networks. Because the Cisco IP Transfer Point supports traditional, advanced, and combined traditional/advanced networks, operators can control their migration to advanced networks and make sure it is aligned with business goals.
The Cisco ITP offers the complete feature set found in traditional signaling transfer points (STPs). When operating in a TDM mode, the Cisco ITP provides superior value for transporting SS7 traffic over traditional TDM networks.
