                                  POWER OF ATTORNEY

      Know all by these presents, that the undersigned hereby constitutes and
appoints each of Patrick Macken and Bruce W. McClelland, signing singly, the
undersigned's true and lawful attorney-in-fact to:

(1) prepare, execute in the undersigned's name and on the undersigned's behalf,
and submit to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") a Form ID,
including amendments thereto, and any other documents necessary or appropriate
to obtain codes and passwords enabling the undersigned to make electronic fil-
ings with the SEC of reports required by Section 16(a) of the Securities Exch-
ange Act of 1934 (the "Act") or any rule or regulation of the SEC;

(2) execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in the undersigned's capacity
as an officer of Ribbon Communications Inc. (the "Company"), Forms 3, 4, and 5
in accordance with Section 16(a) of the Act and the rules thereunder, and any
other forms or reports the undersigned may be required to file in connection
with the undersigned's ownership, acquisition, or disposition of securities of
the Company;

(3) do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the undersigned which
may be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such Form 3, 4, or 5,
or other form or report, and timely file such form or report with the SEC and
any stock exchange or similar authority; and

(4) take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the foreg-
oing which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to, in
the best interest of, or legally required by, the undersigned, it being under-
stood that the documents executed by such attorney-in-fact on behalf of the
undersigned pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall
contain such terms and conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve in such
attorney-in-fact's discretion.

      The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power
and authority to do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever requi-
site, necessary, or proper to be done in the exercise of any of the rights and
powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes as the undersigned
might or could do if personally present, with full power of substitution or
revocation, hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney-in-fact, or
such attorney -in-fact's substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do or cause
to be done by virtue of this power of attorney and the rights and powers herein
granted.  The undersigned acknowledges that the foregoing attorneys-in-fact, in
serving in such capacity at the request of the undersigned, are not assuming,
nor is the Company assuming, any of the undersigned's responsibilities to comply
with Section 16 of the Act. This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force
and effect until the undersigned is no longer required to file Forms 3, 4, and 5
with respect to the undersigned's holdings of and transactions in securities
issued by the Company, unless earlier revoked by the undersigned in a signed
writing delivered to the foregoing attorneys-in-fact.


      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney to
be executed as of this 30th day of August, 2022.
