SN500 SmartNode eSBC Very-Low-Cost Session Border Controller
The SmartNode SN500 from Patton is the first and only eSBC designed for
small/home offices and small to medium enterprises. Supporting 4 to 30
concurrent SIP sessions, this entry-level eSBC provides SIP demarcation,
network protection, and call-quality assurance for All-IP business
communications. The SN500 is ideal for implementing unified communications,
SIP trunking, and cloud/hosted PBX services.
SLA Monitoring
Call Quality monitoring ensures service level
agreement (SLA) is met at the customer
premise. Call data recording (CDR) includes
voice-quality information, call duration,
codec, and more. Accessible by Web and
API (OSS/BSS integration).
VoIP Security
Network separation with SIP back-2-back
user agent, DoS prevention, trust SIP peer,
optional signaling encryption (SIP-TLS),
intelligent access control list (ACL).
SIP Normalization & Interop
SIP-to-SIP Interworking, normalizes otherwise incompatible vendor-specific
SIP implementations. Service demarcation point provides separation between LAN
and WAN.
SIP Endpoint Management
Endpoint provisioning and operating tools include discovery and remote-access
of SIP endpoints, maintaining VoIP service.
Easy Management & Provisioning
Patton Cloud network edge orchestration.
Automated mass-provisioning with HTTPS delivers secure, zero-touch
provisioning.
Patton’s cloud-based Web Wizard configuration tool combined with software-
image campaign-management ensures efficient large-scale deployments.
Proprietary Software
Proprietary Trinity™ operating system offers added security.
D esigned to resolve the complex security, interoperability, and service-
quality issues service providers and enterprises face, Patton’s very-low-cost
SmartNode™ SN500 eSBC is perfect for delivering high-quality SIP trunk, hosted
PBX and UC services for SoHos and SMEs. Service providers do not typically own
the transport network, so they cannot control the quality of service at the
customer premise. That’s where the eSBC comes in:
The SN500 is operated, managed, and administrated by the Patton Cloud, which
provides proactive notification of performance issues in the customer network
that may impair call quality. Automated alerts allow pre-emptive corrective
actions that
reduce service downtime and increase customer satisfaction.
The Application
The SN500 is ideal for such applications as SIP trunking and unified
communications as as service (UCaaS)—with a cloud/hosted PBX.
Installed at the SoHo or SME customer premise, the SN500 provides a clear
network separation point (demarc) between the subscriber LAN and the service
provider WAN.
In conjunction with the Patton Cloud, the eSBC monitors SIP traffic and call
quality, and triggers an e-mail or SMS notification whenever call-quality
drops. Remote SIP endpoints (phones, computer terminals, etc.) can be easily
provisioned,
monitored and managed using the Patton Cloud. Visit
