Ribbon's PSX Software Edition (PSX SWe) is a virtualized, centralized policy and routing solution designed for service providers to manage and optimize VoIP services across diverse network environments. It delivers intelligent session control for session border controllers (SBCs), media gateways, and call controllers, supporting protocols such as SIP, ENUM, H.323, TDM, SS7/C7, IN/AIN, and IMS. The PSX SWe's distributed architecture enables providers to deploy local instances for performance and resiliency while maintaining centralized policy, routing, and administration, eliminating the need to synchronize configurations across numerous sites. Key applications include Least Cost Routing (LCR), Quality of Service (QoS) routing, toll-free number routing, and number translation services. Additionally, it functions as an IMS Breakout Gateway Control Function (BGCF) and provides call validation treatment for STIR/SHAKEN and Reputation Scoring services to mitigate call spoofing.

The Ribbon SBC Software Edition (SBC SWe) is a cloud-native, software-based Session Border Controller designed to secure and optimize real-time communications across various deployment environments. It offers the same robust features as Ribbon's hardware-based SBC 5400 and SBC 7000 appliances, including extensive audio codec transcoding, signaling interworking, call admission control, and comprehensive security measures such as encryption and protection against Denial of Service attacks. The SBC SWe can be deployed as a Virtual Machine (VM) on industry-standard servers in data centers, as a Virtual Network Function (VNF) in private clouds using OpenStack, or in public clouds like Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This flexibility allows enterprises to scale their communications infrastructure efficiently while maintaining high performance and security standards.
