“Juniper Networks’ core routers are ideal for constructing high-capacity, reliable video networks. To achieve the high-quality of services that our customers demand, we have worked hard to develop new technologies that enable the forwarding of multicast streams to change dynamically and across a wide bandwidth without packet loss.

We look forward to continuing our collaboration with the Juniper team to support our organization’s evolving needs,” said Osamu Nakazawa, Director, Innovative IP Architecture Center, NTT Communications.
