Description

The Cisco Unified Border Element (CUBE) serves as a robust Session Border Controller (SBC) designed for enterprises, enabling secure, scalable, and adaptable voice and video communications between corporate networks and provider SIP trunks. It encapsulates four essential roles: session management, security enforcement, protocol interworking, and boundary definition. CUBE effectively facilitates signaling compatibility between SIP and H.323 protocols and manages media interworking, which includes DTMF, fax, modem support, and codec transcoding, while also executing address and port translations to ensure privacy and conceal network topology. Additionally, it offers features such as billing and call detail record (CDR) normalization, quality-of-service (QoS) optimization, bandwidth management, as well as media services that include forking and proxying capabilities. Moreover, CUBE can be implemented either on Cisco routers or as a virtual solution on Cisco UCS servers, accommodating centralized, distributed, or hybrid deployment strategies, which makes it versatile for various organizational needs. This adaptability allows businesses to tailor their communication infrastructure to meet evolving demands effectively.

Description

The Ribbon SBC Software Edition (SBC SWe) is a versatile, cloud-native Session Border Controller that enhances and secures real-time communications in a variety of deployment scenarios. It provides the same comprehensive functionality found in Ribbon's hardware-based SBC 5400 and SBC 7000 models, featuring capabilities such as extensive audio codec transcoding, signaling interworking, call admission control, and robust security protocols, including encryption and defenses against Denial of Service attacks. The SBC SWe can be implemented as a Virtual Machine (VM) on standard industry servers in data centers, as a Virtual Network Function (VNF) within private clouds utilizing OpenStack, or on public cloud platforms like Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This adaptable deployment model enables organizations to efficiently scale their communication infrastructure without compromising on performance or security. Additionally, the SBC SWe's cloud-native architecture ensures that enterprises can easily integrate it into their existing systems and workflows, fostering seamless communication across diverse environments.
