Description

Ericsson's Session Border Controller (SBC) is a high-performance, virtualized solution aimed at ensuring both security and interoperability between IMS and various networks, managing both signaling and media effectively. It serves as a comprehensive solution for a range of services including Voice over LTE (VoLTE), Voice over Wi-Fi (VoWiFi), Video over LTE (ViLTE), Rich Communication Services (RCS), fixed VoIP, interconnection, and web communication applications. This SBC can be implemented on virtually any x86 hardware across several cloud platforms, such as OpenStack, VMware, and Ericsson NFVI. It is also validated on Ericsson's software-defined infrastructure (SDI) and can be part of standardized industrial solutions. The architecture of the SBC leverages centralized control while managing the media plane in areas of high traffic, which helps to reduce media latency and optimize transmission costs. With its extensive features and convergent capabilities, the Ericsson SBC allows service providers to consolidate their needs into one product, leading to considerable operational expenditure (OPEX) reductions. This unification of services not only enhances efficiency but also simplifies the management of diverse communication solutions for operators.

Description

Nokia's Session Border Controller (SBC) plays a crucial role in safeguarding signaling and control media as they traverse the boundaries of the IMS network. Positioned at the access network edges, it secures various forms of IP access while facilitating the delivery of all IMS services effectively. Additionally, it is located on the periphery of peering networks, enabling seamless roaming, IMS interconnection, and corporate SIP trunking operations. The SBC encompasses a range of functions, including the encryption and decryption of bearer traffic, firewall capabilities, and topology hiding for enhanced security, as well as media handling, transcoding, SIP interworking, and NAT traversal. It may be implemented as an independent SBC or integrated into Nokia’s VoLTE/VoWiFi framework. For VoIP services aimed at residential and enterprise customers, the SBC is equipped with robust protections against DoS/DDoS attacks, ensures network topology concealment from access points, facilitates NAT traversal, and supports various codecs, notably G.729, G.722, and T.38 Fax. Furthermore, within a VoLTE core network, it regulates access and supports mobility features, offering an EVS codec and compatibility with eSRVCC, VoWiFi, NPLI, S8HR roaming, and additional functionalities, thus enhancing the overall communication experience.
