Large enterprises are facing insatiable demand for real-time, multimedia, SIP-based communication services for both employees and customers. And this demand has only grown with the migration of employees to work from home.

With proven network security, intelligent session control, robust media services and SIP normalization for interworking, the SBC 7000 is designed to address the unique reliability and security challenges of real-time communications. The SBC 7000 is ready-made to ensure quality of service for unified communications, collaboration and conferencing, contact centers, and SIP trunking underpinning business services.

The foundational strength of Ribbon’s SBC 7000 is its ability to easily scale to support even the highest  capacity requirements from the very largest enterprises.  The SBC 7000’s scalability empowers enterprises to leave behind traditional “racking and stacking” of small capacity SBCs to meet traffic demand.  With faster time-to-market and reduced operational expenses plus the ability to scale in hours or days with simple licensing upgrades, an enterprise can easily address business growth.

SBC 7000 Attributes

  • Superior scalability: The capacity of the SBC 7000 can be easily expanded up to 150,000 concurrent sessions by simply upgrading software licensing.
  • Carrier-grade: Enterprises get to take advantage of the reliability and high availability that was designed to meet the stringent requirements of service providers.
  • Unparalleled performance: Competitive SBCs lose as much as half their call capacity when encryption is turned on for media (RTP) streams. However, the SBC 7000 easily supports just as many encrypted secure RTP sessions as it does with unencrypted media sessions.
  • Robust security: Third party functional testing, under the condition of a Denial of Service (DoS) flood attack on SIP-signaling and media ports, showed these attacks were successfully deflected and no legitimate calls were dropped.
  • Verified interoperability: Certified SIP interoperability with industry leading UCaaS and CCaaS solutions as well as multiple IP PBX vendors.
  • UCaaS certifications: As part the complete SBC portfolio, the SBC 5400 is certified for Microsoft Teams and can be deployed to enable Teams Direct Routing.  It is additionally certified for Skype for Business and also for UCaaS providers Zoom and Ring Central.
  • US government certifications: JITC and FIPS-140-2 certified.

Zoom Phone Local Survivability - ZPLS

Ribbon SBCs are certified to work in concert with Zoom Phone Local Survivability Software (ZPLS). Zoom’s ZPLS software is deployed on-site to provide basic calling services, if the Zoom cloud is unreachable. The software works in concert with a Ribbon SBC to provide local access to telecom services (PSTN) – via locally terminated SIP trunks or using traditional analog/digital PSTN lines. The ZPLS software is deployed on a virtual server and remotely managed by Zoom to make deployment easy. If the Zoom cloud is unavailable, ZPLS enables intra-site calling (including directory-based calling). Ribbon’s SBCs add PSTN access so users can place and receive calls to/from anywhere – keeping employees connected and customers happy. It’s an ideal solution to assure emergency services access at schools, healthcare facilities, or any other mission-critical organization. Learn more from our Blog Post
