Signaling Transfer Point (STP)

SS7 STP Functionality for Core, Edge and Interconnect Deployments on DSC 8000


Despite the evolution of mobile markets and services, from older generations (2G and 3G) to 4G and 5G, the need for SS7 STPs will continue for decades.

Ribbon's Diameter Signaling Controller solutions, DSC 8000 and DSC SWe, can be configured to provide essential STP functionality for core, edge and interconnect deployments.
