Acme Packet and Microsoft Lync for Voice
•
•
•
•
•
Joint reference architecture established for voice
E-SBCs have achieved MSFT UCOIP qualification
E-SBCs used at the Enterprise premise for SIP trunking
E-SBCs don’t sit in the Lync client-server path
E-SBCs interface only with the Lync Mediation Server for
PSTN/SIP trunking traffic

Acme Packet and Microsoft Lync for Video
• Interest among customers for integrating existing
video systems with MS Lync
• E-SBCs interface with Mediation Server for voice
but mediation server doesn’t support video
• Microsoft video qualification program
• Separate track from voice qualification
• Three categories defined - endpoints, MCUs and GW (no SBC
category as in voice program)
• Only Radvision Scopia qualified so far under GW category
• To qualify for GW, we need to plug feature gaps
• TURN and ICE (MSFT specific)
• SIP-H.323 GW
• Video transcoding

Enterprise Use Case: Lync and Polycom
Video Integration

•
•
•
•
•
E-SBC interconnects Lync and
Polycom video domains
E-SBC media anchoring techniques
used instead of TURN/ICE
E-SBC provides remote worker
connectivity for Polycom softclients
E-SBC interworks MSFT
SIPoTLS/SRTP to SIPoUDP/RTP for
Polycom
DMA used for SIP-H.323 IW and
RMX used for video transcoding
Lync remote client and B2B
federation done via Lync Edge
