Fair enough. But it's important to understand that Kamailio is not a piece of 
finished software like say, Asterisk or Freeswitch, where you just edit some 
declarative configuration files and "enable the SBC funcitonality" or whatever. 
It's more of a kind of SDK, almost, driven by an imperative domain-specific 
scripting language, so you'd have to meticulously script your desired outcomes. 

There are two different ways the term "SBC" is commonly used. One is kind of 
folkloric in nature, and refers to a carrier and/or customer endpoint-facing 
"traffic aggregation" element in a rather generic sense.
The other notion is somewhat more specific to the understanding fostered by the 
commercial SBC industry, and includes some things Kamailio either does not do 
well or to which it is not exceptionally well-suited. Which one are you after?

Kamailio can certainly play the role you're wanting it to play, but you need to 
be aware of the trade-offs. For instance, there are a number of things that 
fall under the mainstream commercial understanding of SBC, such as 
ASIC-assisted RTP relay, B2BUA-based topology hiding, various types of 
registrar caching middlebox functionality, forwarding out of a large number of 
network interfaces/VLANs, etc.
