Metronet Selects GENBAND to Power IP Voice Business

Unified Comms
GENBAND has announced that Metronet (UK) has chosen GENBAND’s Session Border Controller (SBC) and Real Time Session Manager (RSM) to power its rapidly expanding IP voice business.

Having outgrown its previous SIP Trunking solution, Metronet (UK) looked to GENBAND’s scalable SBC and RSM to support the rapid growth of its enterprise business and the distribution of its quality service to a now more extensive customer base.

“Deploying GENBAND’s SBC and RSM equips us with the advanced technology we require to deliver the quality of service our customers have come to expect, on an exponentially larger scale,” said Wayne Mills-Kidals, Voice Services Manager at Metronet (UK). “GENBAND’s respected technological prowess, commitment to service and simple API integrations with our back office functions made it the only vendor that could ensure the VoIP arm of our business is as blue chip as our IP connectivity.”

GENBAND’s SBC delivers advanced network security, simplified interoperability and session management along with carrier-grade capabilities for SIP Trunking and IP Interconnect. The RSM solution offers the ability to proactively enable and monitor service level agreements (SLAs), provide Quality of Service (QoS) metrics, and easily enforce subscriber and network policies.

“Metronet (UK) has built its business by providing best-in-class solutions and the highest level of customer service possible, so we are thrilled to be an integral part of their growing IP voice network,” said David Hiscock, GENBAND’s Senior Vice President of Sales, EMEA.
