  3. About Session Border Controllers

    Session Border Controllers

    A Session Border Controller is a device used in some VoIP networks to exert control over the signaling and usually also the media streams involved in setting up, conducting, and tearing down calls.

    Within the context of VoIP, the word "Session" in Session Border Controller refers to a call. The word "Border" in Session Border Controller refers to a point of demarcation between one part of a network and another. The word "Controller" refers to the influence that Session Border Controllers have on the data streams that comprise Sessions, as they traverse borders between one part of a network and another.
