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.
Description
The PSX Software Edition (PSX SWe) from Ribbon is a centralized and virtualized policy and routing solution tailored for service providers to effectively manage and enhance VoIP services in a variety of network settings. It offers advanced session control for session border controllers (SBCs), media gateways, and call controllers, accommodating a wide range of protocols, including SIP, ENUM, H.323, TDM, SS7/C7, IN/AIN, and IMS. Thanks to its distributed architecture, service providers can set up local instances that improve performance and resilience while still upholding centralized control over policy, routing, and administration, thus removing the complexities of synchronization across multiple locations. Prominent applications feature Least Cost Routing (LCR), Quality of Service (QoS) routing, toll-free number routing, and number translation services, all of which enhance operational efficiency. Moreover, the PSX SWe serves as an IMS Breakout Gateway Control Function (BGCF) and incorporates call validation treatment for STIR/SHAKEN along with Reputation Scoring services, effectively reducing the risk of call spoofing. This multi-faceted approach ensures that VoIP services remain reliable and secure, ultimately benefiting both providers and end-users.
