A Session Border Controller (SBC) is a critical component in VoIP and SIP-based communications, ensuring secure and high-quality voice and video calls. Here are some key benefits of using an SBC:

Security & Protection – Session Border Controller protect VoIP networks from threats like DoS (Denial of Service) attacks, toll fraud, and eavesdropping by encrypting communication and enforcing security policies.

Quality of Service (QoS) – They optimize call quality by managing bandwidth, prioritizing voice traffic, and reducing latency and jitter.

Interoperability – SBCs act as a bridge between different networks, ensuring compatibility between VoIP service providers, SIP devices, and legacy systems.

I see it's been a while since you've posted, but this is a solid breakdown of SBC benefits. I've worked with VoIP setups where security was a real headache, and having an SBC made a huge difference — especially for preventing toll fraud and keeping call quality steady.

We set up an SBC for a small office to keep calls secure and clear, and it really helped with call quality and avoiding issues. For the trunking side, we used Telxi and it worked smoothly—no weird drops or delays. Their setup made connecting different systems way easier and kept everything running without extra fuss.
