SBC CNe Edge provides an intuitive web management interface with built-in templates for popular cloud services, IP-PBXs and telecom providers. It operates in concert with Ribbon Application Management Platform (RAMP) making it easy for multisite enterprises to centrally manage and monitor a variety of Ribbon security elements across hundreds or thousands of locations. For ease of deployment, SBC CNe Edge will be available on the Microsoft Azure Marketplace in the coming weeks.
