What’s Next at Mitel and What This Means for You

 

Mitel SBC

Mitel Session Border Controller, or SBC, is the device used to conduct calls. However, high-quality calls
require several steps, and with the right SBC, can be used to collect valuable information.
The Mitel SBC controls signaling and the media streams involved in starting, conducting and ending a
call. The call could be a traditional voice telephone call or any interactive media call, such as by video.

Benefits and Features of the Mitel SBC

As a leading business phone system expert, Mitel has developed an SBC packed with utility. It allows
network operators to overcome some of the problems that are created by firewalls and network address
translators.

SBCs provide measurement, access control and data conversion facilities, giving you more useful
statistics. SBCs modify the stream of call control data and create a better user experience for both your
employee and your customer.
