Learn about the BFX Unified Signaling Core

The BFX Unified Signaling Core is BroadForward’s cloud native, multi protocol signaling engine, built to handle every signaling technology – SS7, Diameter, HTTP/2, IT protocols – and deployable on bare metal, virtual machines, or containers. All BroadForward products run on this same engine, eliminating integration overhead between routing, security, interworking, and number portability functions.

Unified operations – Every BroadForward product uses the same management environment, shared dashboards and a consistent operational model, so operators don’t need to learn new tools or workflows when deploying additional signaling functions.
API‑first design – Engineers get direct access to build, extend, automate, and troubleshoot. No black boxes, no hidden logic, no vendor lock in.

Signaling is invisible when it works. Catastrophic when it doesn’t. We engineer for both.
