Proc2401 - Session Border Controller Expansion

Jisc introduced Session Border Controller (SBC) as a Service to our members and customers following the Covid pandemic as a response to their needs, to facilitate the secure change from office to hybrid /home working. This initiative has resulted in the investment of a highly resilient pair of carrier grade Oracle SBC 3900 devices hosted in Jisc Data Centres. The installation now provides a multi tenanted solution to it members and customers for the enablement of direct routing across IP networks. The service provides a gateway between private networks enabling VoIP telephony of Unified Communications solutions, such as (but not limited to) Microsoft Teams, to break out into the PSTN. Jisc are seeking to expand this service offering, and the purpose of this RFI is to gain information and knowledge from those in the marketplace who can provide hardware, associated services and support for Jisc’s hosted Session Border Controller (SBC) as a service. This RFI will help inform the direction of expansion to the current SBC offering. We are keen to hear from Communications Service Providers (CSP) who have demonstratable experience in this sector.
