Ribbon has confirmed that its Session Border Controllers (SBC) have been certified for Google's new Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Link.
Ribbon's SBC 5400, SCB SWe, SBE SWe Edge, SBC 1000, and SBC 2000 can now be deployed by Google Cloud business customers to leverage Google Voice telephony services.
As communications continue to shift to the cloud, Ribbon hopes that its products will help optimise workforces worldwide following the Google certification.
Tony Scarfo, EVP & General Manager of Ribbon's Cloud & Edge Business Unit, said: "SIP Link is an important initiative in the ongoing quest to make cloud-based voice services more broadly available to organisations and their workers.
"We’re proud to partner with Google Cloud to showcase our ability to support cloud-based telephony solutions that enhance employee productivity anywhere in the world.”
According to Ribbon, its extensive SBC portfolio offers organisations secure telecom connectivity to help block unauthorised access and fraudulent activity.
It also offers call encryption and protection of the broader enterprise data network.
Ribbon has designed its SBCs to provide robust SIP security and interoperability, including legacy PBXs, contact centres, analogue devices, SIP devices, and different telecom providers.
The company's SBCs already support Microsoft Teams Phone (formerly Operator Connect) following an announcement last year.
