Global Enterprise Session Border Controller (SBC) Market Definition

Users in remote branch offices, home workers/remote workers, and unified communications as a service (UCaaS) providers all have secure voice and video connectivity provided by enterprise session border controllers (E-SBCs), which are located at the edge of the enterprise network. The following is where the term “session border controller” originates from A real-time communication connection between endpoints or users is referred to as a session, which comes from the Session Initiation Protocol. A voice or video call is typically included in this.

The boundary between networks that are not completely trusted by one another is referred to as a “border.” The E-SBC’s ability to manage (permit, refuse, transform, and terminate) each session that crosses the border is referred to as its “controller” capability. The letter “E” in E-SBC stands for “enterprise.” It seeks to distinguish SBCs with a carrier focus from those with an enterprise focus. An Enterprise Session Border Controller (SBC) is a network device used in Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and Unified Communications (UC) systems. It acts as a mediator between an organization’s internal communication network (such as a private IP-PBX or UC platform) and the external public Internet or service provider networks.

Global Enterprise Session Border Controller (SBC) Market Overview

The Enterprise Session Border Controller (SBC) Market was experiencing steady growth due to the increasing adoption of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and Unified Communications (UC) solutions across various industries. The demand for secure and reliable communication services, especially for businesses with geographically dispersed locations and remote workers, contributed to the market’s expansion. Key factors driving the growth of the Global Enterprise Enterprise Session Border Controller (SBC) Market included a rise in VoIP and UC adoption, security concerns, remote workforce, interoperability, adoption of SIP trunking, and scalability and flexibility.

With more than 10 vendors providing some type of SBC functionality, either incorporated in another network element or as a standalone device, the competitive environment within the enterprise Enterprise Session Border Controller (SBC) Market is still fluid. In order to safeguard the enterprise network from incursions through the service provider network, handle NAT and firewall traversal, and, if necessary, interwork between various VoIP protocols, eSBCs are utilized as a border element on the enterprise premises. The Enterprise Session Border Controller (SBC) Market is primarily driven by medium-sized and big businesses that use SIP trunking services to centralize, consolidate, and maximize the use of their trunking infrastructure.

Another driver is UCaaS, which employs an SBC similar to a SIP trunking service. Connecting remote workers is another application that enables them to use desk phones and softphones outside of the company network. With the SBC handling enterprise border traversal, the main use case is to do away with the requirement for a separate VPN appliance when desk phones are used at remote offices or employees’ residences. The majority of the time, however, people utilize softphones and VPN software, and they purchase VPN hardware for the select few high-value employees who require them. Additionally, a lot of IP phones come with built-in VPN functionality, which reduces the requirement for VPN appliances or SBCs.
