Novo Banco is one of the main Portuguese banking institutions with more than 5000 employees, which has chosen to update its communication infrastructure and to replace the existing Session Border Controller (SBC) that it had in its network with our NetMatch-S Lite Edition (LE), leveraging to the latest features for new digital market.
SBC is an element of the network that regulates how telephone calls are started, conducted and ended on a VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) network. Our NetMatch-S LE is a fully virtualized SBC and can be placed at the edge of the network to demarcate and protect its SIP domain, simplify work and solve the security problems of SIP interconnections with the telco operator.
The key factors for triggering the change were to secure & improve the network features, with a smooth transition without operational issues at the right timing and ensuring a better operating experience further.

Novo Banco faced the selection process by inviting the major players in the SBC arena, and evaluating their capabilities at a complex Proof of Concept (PoC); and where it was recognized the Italtel
NetMatch-S as the right product to fit into the bank requirements.
