Wick Hill Now Shipping Sipera Systems E-SBC
April 2011 by Marc Jacob
VAD Wick Hill, specialists in secure IP infrastructure solutions and convergence, today announced the availability of the Sipera E-SBC session border controller (SBC) appliance, the industry’s first device for SIP trunk termination, to include a unique enterprise VoIP integration module for rapid installation and implementation.
Based on Sipera’s deep experience in enterprise SIP deployments supporting hundreds of thousands of users, the E-SBC can be deployed in as little as two hours for typical implementations. Unlike SBCs designed for carriers and repackaged for enterprises, Sipera’s E-SBC offers the features needed by enterprises adopting SIP trunks, while stripping out the highly complex and difficult to manage components of common SBCs.
Scaling from 20 to 10,000 concurrent sessions, the E-SBC is available for as little as ten percent of the cost of the market-leading carrier-focused SBCs.
Sipera’s E-SBC features:
Industry standard session border control functionality for terminating SIP trunks and providing demarcation and control at the enterprise edge.
The SIP Trunk Integration Module (STIM), a powerful, flexible interoperability framework that dramatically simplifies the interface with the enterprise UC servers and IP-PBXs.
A simple upgrade path to implement the full Sipera UC-Sec security appliance, providing VoIP and UC firewalling, and the industry’s best protection against VoIP toll fraud and UC intrusion.
An enterprise deploying the E-SBC can upgrade to the UC-Sec and gain advanced functionality such as encryption to all endpoints, UC firewalling, full UC proxy functionality, access control and advanced user authentication, signalling and media forking for compliance, signature-based intrusion and threat mitigation, and active policy enforcement for all UC traffic.
