The HP MSR Survivable Branch Communication Module (SBM) powered by Microsoft Lync server enables real-time communications, even when the WAN is unavailable, enabling you to remain productive, make calls, and sustain communications locally in your branch office. The HP MSR SBM combines a Microsoft Lync survivable branch appliance with HP software to deliver a rich set of unified communications (UC) features such as instant messaging, voice, video, and desktop sharing. The HP MSR SBM provides toll bypass and least-cost routing over a public switched telephone network (PSTN) to reduce costs and improve user productivity.

The modules offer a single and multicore, multi-threaded processing architecture that combines storage, Gigabit Ethernet, and USB interfaces, which reduces your network’s physical footprint, power consumption, cabling, and management, thereby lowering the network’s cost and complexity.
