Definition of Border Controls
A Session Border Controller (SBC) is a device used in some VoIP networks to exert control over the signaling and media streams involved in setting up, conducting, and tearing down calls. SBCs are put into the signaling and/or media path between calling and called party. In some cases, the SBC acts as if it was the called VoIP phone and places a second call to the called party.

The effect of this behaviour is that not only the signaling traffic, but also the media traffic (voice, video etc) crosses the SBC. Without an SBC, the media traffic travels directly between the VoIP phones.
