Security, ease of deployment, IP network adaptation and peering solution for:

• Baremetal COTS (Commercial off-the-shelf)
• Specialized compact carrier grade form factor

The TelcoBridges FreeSBC is our Session Border Controller (SBC) product.

Software upgradeable from 100 to 60,000 sessions (or 30,000 with 100% transcoding), the FreeSBC is the most cost-effective SBC product for service providers and carriers currently available on the market that combines solid protection, IP-to-IP network adaptation and fast setup time in a single solution.

Characteristics of the FreeSBC

• Back-to-back user agent (B2BUA)
• DOS/DDOS protection, dynamic blacklisting and call access control
• Easy to deploy, operate and manage through various interfaces including a RESTful API
• Integrated network troubleshooting tools (traces, media/signaling recording, test call generation, etc)
• Up to 60,000 simultaneous signaling and media sessions
• Media transcoding
• Flexible and extensive routing with SIP headers modification capabilities
• Fit to install on clouds, baremetal servers or TelcoBriges' hardware.

Installation

Configuration/Status

Baremetal COTS

Commercial off-the-shelf

The FreeSBC is offered on baremetal COTS platform. The advantages running the FreeSBC on baremetal are:

• Higher performance (sessions per seconds)
• Higher capacity (simultaneous sessions and media handling)

TSBC-HW-SRV

The TelcoBridges TSBC-HW-SRV-HIGH and TSBC-HW-SRV-MID are carrier-grade hardware platforms to run the FreeSBC session border controller designed for Network-to-network interface (NNI SBC), peering and access functions (access SBC).

TSBC-HW-TRANS

TSBC-HW-TRANS, 1U transcoding unit

The TelcoBridges TSBC-HW-TRANS is a carrier-grade hardware platform to transcode sessions processed by the FreeSBC session border controller:

• 1U slim form factor
• Up to 2744 transcoding sessions per unit
• Up to 16 TSBC-HW-TRANS per FreeSBC system (43,904 transcoding sessions)
• Telco-grade hardware with either AC or DC redundant power supplies
• Transcoding for G711, G723, G729, AMR-NB, AMR-WB, T.38, DTMF and more
• Add voice services to the SBC call flows

Cloud computing

TelcoBridges FreeSBC is offered as a virtual SBC, ready to be deployed in a private/public cloud environment. Along with TelcoBridges licensing model, the FreeSBC transforms the following advantages into benefits to customers.

• Avoid up-front infrastructure costs
• Faster (new) service deployment
• Improved manageability
• Grow/Shrink on demand
• Pay as you go
