The CMB is not a ring, it is everywhere and can be seen in every direction. It fills the whole universe like water fills the whole ocean. The CMB comes from the time of the early universe, when the universe more dense and every part of space was filled with hot glowing matter. As the universe expanded the matter cooled off and stopped glowing but the light from that glow continues to spread in all directions.
