Signaling End Point

Signaling End Point

In telecommunications, a Signaling End Point (SEP) is an SS7 endpoint. This is to be contrasted with a Signal Transfer Point (STP).

Examples include:
*Intelligent network components such as Service Control Points (SCPs) and Service Switching Points (SSPs)
*Telephone exchanges implementing Telephone User Part (TUP) or ISDN User Part (ISUP)
*Mobile Switching Centers implementing MAP
