In telecommunications, a Signaling End Point (SEP) is an SS7 endpoint.[1] This is to be contrasted with a Signal Transfer Point (STP).[2]
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
