Mavenir Releases Software-based SBC for VoLTE

Mavenir Systems released a software-based Session Border Controller (SBC) for delivering Voice over LTE (VoLTE) and Rich Communication Services (RCS) services.

The company said its SBC provides the full suite of standards-defined wireless functions needed to launch VoLTE and RCS services. The software-based, carrier grade solution can be deployed on cloud-based infrastructures using Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) and Software Defined Network (SDN) technologies, and its architecture provides the flexibility needed to adapt to the varied traffic models that these IP-based services impose on mobile operator networks. It can be deployed for either Access or Interconnect SBC use cases, with full support for VoLTE and RCS deployments.

“We believe that as VoLTE and RCS services are launched and carriers start peering at the IP layer, the demand will increase and traffic will grow,” said Pardeep Kohli, President and Chief Executive Officer, Mavenir Systems. “Our next generation SBC is built for wireless services and mobility, and is basically redefining Border Control.”
