Sangoma Session Border Controllers
A Sangoma SBC protects both your voice and data network and is designed to handle every aspect of phone calls that travel over the internet (or voice-over-ip phone calls).
What is a Session Border Controller (SBC)?
- SBCs protect against Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed DoS (DDoS) attacks, safeguard against toll fraud and service theft, and provide media and signaling encryption
- SBCs can normalize SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) signaling headers and messages to mitigate multivendor incompatibilities
- Protocol interworking - SBCs enable interworking between protocols (i.e. SIP-to-H.323) or diverse codecs (i.e. g.711 to g.729 transcoding)
- Quality of service (QoS) - SBCs enforce call admission control (CAC) policies, type of service (ToS) marking, or rate limiting for service quality assurance
- SBCs can route sessions across network interfaces to ensure high availability or enable least cost routing (LCR)
