GENBAND’s SBC delivers advanced network security, simplified interoperability and session management along with carrier-grade capabilities for SIP Trunking and IP Interconnect. The RSM solution offers the ability to proactively enable and monitor service level agreements (SLAs), provide Quality of Service (QoS) metrics, and easily enforce subscriber and network policies.

“Metronet (UK) has built its business by providing best-in-class solutions and the highest level of customer service possible, so we are thrilled to be an integral part of their growing IP voice network,” said David Hiscock, GENBAND’s Senior Vice President of Sales, EMEA. “Our market-leading software-based real time communications solutions continue to help service providers and enterprises around the world optimize their networks and deliver superior communications experiences to their customers.”
