Voice over IP (VoIP), video streaming, instant messaging, and gaming are just a few of the real-time, IP-based applications enjoying rapid growth in today's competitive communications market. The Cisco ASR 1000 Series Session Border Controller (SBC) helps service providers and enterprises connect isolated islands of voice-, video-, and multimedia-based IP networks and facilitates end-to-end IP-based transport of these real-time applications.
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series SBC builds on the continuous operation and service aggregation provided by the powerful and flexible Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Router platforms. With integration of media-forwarding functions of the SBC for both IPv4 and IPv6 in the high-performance data-plane Cisco ASR 1000 Series Embedded Services Processor (ESP), and control functions in the separate, flexible, and scalable control-plane Cisco ASR 1000 Series route processor, the Cisco ASR 1000 Series completely integrates the SBC with other layer 2 and layer 3 services such as security, quality of service (QoS), IP multicast, etc. without requiring additional application-specific hardware.
By incorporating SBC capability, the Cisco ASR 1000 Series SBC eliminates the need for overlay networks and standalone appliances and provides an open and flexible architecture for all service provider deployments, whether for peering or for customer access. A key element of the Cisco Service Exchange Framework (SEF), which supports IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) and non-IMS services, the Cisco ASR 1000 Series SBC further accelerates network convergence while providing investment protection.
