GSM gateway (Mobile VoIP)
From Zenitel Wiki
This article describes the setup of the GSM gateway MV-370 (Mobile VoIP) from PORTech Communications Inc The GSM Gateway must be equipped with a SIM card and registered to the GSM network as a regular mobile phone subscriber. Via the gateway calls can be made from the AlphaCom E to the GSM network, as well as from the GSM network in to the AlphaCom E. The AlphaCom must be equipped with a license for SIP Trunk.
It is also possible to send SMS messages from the AlphaCom via the GSM gateway.
