Comprehensive Real-time Communication Solution

The Internet is rapidly expanding, becoming increasingly content-rich and business-critical. The services offered will continue to grow both in terms of variety and quality, improving the ability to address new convergence scenarios derived by the combined usage of voice, text and video content and the integration of voice and data networks. Current data network platforms present severe limitations since they have not been specifically designed to satisfy the new requirements of convergence applications and services. This problem is further compounded when trying to bring such applications to remote branch offices, retail outlets, or even to broadband telecommuters. In that situation, a powerful real-time communications capable security, routing and session border controller solution is required in the branch office.

SIP Enabled

The Media5Boss-Convergence solutions are fully RFC 3261 compliant SIP Proxy – Registrar as well as B2BUA. As such, they can act in conjunction with a SIP PBX to provide Voice Routing, Survivability, Call Admission control, ENUM Lookup, Call Prioritization, Transcoding, as well as other features.

Enterprise Class Network Security Solution

The Media5Boss-Convergence solutions offer a state-of-the-art firewall with Layer 7 Traffic classification as well as VPN functionality. The Convergence solutions use encrypted voice signaling and management protocols. With two LANs and one DMZ interface, there is also the possibility to configure different security zones even on the LAN side. Contrary to many other branch office solutions, the Media5Boss-Convergence solutions can also act as a Session Border Controller for voice scenarios thus controlling real-time traffic flows in and out of the branch office. This makes it the first single box branch connectivity solution for VoIP Enterprise or VoIP Centrex scenarios.
