The IOS features to manipulate SIP headers are very powerful and will let you workaround any interworking problems between the SBC and UCM quite easily.

Robert,

You can technically get away with just using the provider's SBC but be prepared for a lot of going back and forth with them to solve any interop issues.  I like having my own SBC/CUBE so that I can modify whatever I want and have more control over the setup.

It's also nice to be able to completely hide your internal network behind the CUBE.

I am planning on replacing an again CallManager deployment with SCCP phones with a new CUCM 10.x and SIP phones.

Our service provider can provide all of our trunking and PSTN connectivity via a direct SIP trunk, so I no longer need a PSTN gateway or PRI card, etc.  (or at least I should not).

We will be peering SIP from the CUCM to our providers SBC, so the question begs to ask on our side is a CUBE absolutely required to make this work?  Pros/Cons?  I'd rather not have to add a CUBE in if I don't have to.

Since the phones are native SIP as is the CallManager I'm trying to understand why a CUBE is required? (or is it not?)

TIA
