Call Screening: Call screening manages incoming phone calls by identifying and filtering them before the recipient answers: |
|
●

Blocks unwanted cold calls from sales agents or from Spam numbers to minimize distractions and interruptions in every day operations |
|

Enhancing Security by verifying the identity of the caller before connecting the call. |

Improving Productivity by ensuing that only relevant calls reach employees. |

CAC Profiles: CAC Profiles are designed to manage and limit the number of concurrent calls handled by SBC devices on the level of the SIP Connection entity. This prevents network resource overload. On Live Platform, CAC Profiles can also be used for Metering customer tenant services; phone numbers that are uploaded to the customer tenant and routed through theses SIP connections can also be configured with these profiles. |
