Session Border Controller (SBC)

Assure STIR/SHAKEN compliance

Validate incoming VoIP calls with the STIR/SHAKEN framework of interconnected standards.

Vet and validate the authenticity of traffic

Implement a STIR/SHAKEN REST client, which, upon receiving an initial out-of-dialog SIP INVITE, sends a REST request to a STIR server for attestation or verification of the calling party identification.

Monitor operations

Evaluate, track, and troubleshoot operations based on extended STIR/SHAKEN client statistics.

Configure a flexible SBC

Deploy as an access SBC, interconnect SBC, or both, enabling the consolidation of access and interconnect functionality in a single system.

Select from a broad array of platforms

Choose the best device for your needs from a wide range of Oracle platforms at different price and performance points. Oracle Acme Packet platforms feature high availability, carrier-grade manageability, and redundancy for uncompromised quality, interoperability, and security.

Deploy the SBC as a Virtual Network Function

Deploy the SBC as a Virtual Network Function (VNF) in a standalone instance or within an orchestrated virtual environment. Each way ensures functionality, security, interoperability, and reliability.

Group instances of virtualized and physical SBCs together in a cluster

Group instances of virtualized SBCs with their counterparts on purpose-built platforms to create “hybrid clusters,” providing a way to introduce them gradually and attain even greater deployment flexibility and network agility.
