Introduction
Different telecom networks offer advantages in
different aspects. Today’s businesses expect the specific benefits from
each of these networks. The Plain Old Telephone System (POTS) and GSM
are two such omni-present networks. Most establishments have access to
both these networks and need to bridge and interconnect them. This
allows them to dynamically select one of the networks on per-call basis
for obvious benefits of cost and Quality of Service (QoS).
The SIMADO GFXD1111S is one such gateway
equipment offering interfaces for GSM, FXS and FXO ports. It can be used
with any brand of existing PBX or even in a stand-alone mode. SIMADO
GFXD1111S supports flexible and intelligent Least Cost Routing (LCR)
options providing significant cost savings and round-the-clock
connectivity.

interface GSM and Plain Old Telephone System (POTS) networks. On the GSM
side, it supports 2G Quad-Band operation and Tri-Band 3G network,
allowing it to work with any GSM/3G network. On the POTS side both, FXS
and FXO interfaces are supported. Incoming calls on GSM port can be
routed on FXS or FXO port. Outgoing calls from the FXS are routed either
on the GSM port or the FXO port depending on the least cost routing
logic.

of 3G networks for Voice communication. It supports Quad-band for 2G
Network and Tri-band for WCDMA Network. It supports fallback
compatibility and hence offers flexibility to access any available
network. Users are always assured for connectivity using the alternate
network in case the preferred (3G) network signal is weak or
unavailable. With 3G power, an organization experiences Noise-free,
Stanch and Crystal Clear Voice Quality, Enhanced Security and Utmost

12 KHz / 16 KHz Metering (PCO Application)
The SIMADO GFXD1111S provides both 12KHz and
16KHz metering for PCO applications. It generates 12KHz / 16KHz metering
pulses for the PCO monitor connected to its FXS port to print the bill
as per the call rate.
Abbreviated Dialing
Up to 32 frequently used numbers can be stored
in the internal memory. These numbers can be dialed just by using
abbreviated codes.
Allowed and Denied Lists
Allowed and Denied Lists are used to restrict
the dialing of long-distance and international numbers. A number is
blocked if its prefix matches any entry in the Denied List. On the other
hand, a number is allowed to go through if it matches any entry of the
Allowed List. This provides flexibility of allowing only specific
numbers while blocking all others.
Automatic Number Translation
The SIMADO GFXD1111S modifies the incoming
number or part thereof so that it matches with the numbering plan of the
destination network. For example, GSM networks require dialing of
complete numbers including the area codes. If a caller has dialed only
the local number, the Simado GFXD1111S adds area code as appropriate
prefix.
Call Divert
This feature gives the user flexibility to user
to divert incoming calls of a GSM port to another GSM or FXO port in
different conditions like Unconditionally, When busy, No-reply and
No-coverage.
Call Progress Tones and Rings
The SIMADO GFXD1111S provides Call Progress
Tones like Dial Tone, Ring Back Tone and Busy Tone etc. Country-specific
tones can be selected to match those of the country where it is
installed. Similarly, ring cadences can also be selected.
Calling Party Control (CPC)
The SIMADO GFXD1111S can send Calling Party
Control call release signal on its FXS ports. This signal is then sensed
by the PBX or other equipment to release the ports when a call is
terminated by the party on the GSM side of the network. This prevents
the blockage of ports. The system also detects CPC signals on the FXO
Port.
Caller Line Identification Presentation (CLIP)
The SIMADO GFXD1111S supports CLIP on FXS, FXO
and GSM ports. A port can be programmed to receive or send CLIP using
any of the standards like DTMF, FSK ITU-T and FSK Bellcore.
Caller Line Identification Restriction (CLIR)
The SIMADO GFXD1111S can be programmed to
deactivate CLIP being sent on the GSM port if the network supports such
flexibility.
Compact and Sturdy
The SIMADO GFXD1111S is an integrated gateway. It can be installed on a wall or any table surface.
FXO-GSM Bridge
In case an existing PBX does not have a spare
trunk (CO) port, the Matrix SIMADO GFXD1111S can be connected to an
extension of the PBX. The users can make GSM calls through the extension
port on which the FXO port of the SIMADO GFXD1111S is connected. Even
the incoming calls can be made to land on the desired extensions of the
PBX. External callers can reach the desired extensions just by dialing
the extension numbers once the call is answered by the SIMADO GFXD1111S.

Least Cost Routing
The SIMADO GFXD1111S can route a call either on
GSM or on the FXO (PSTN) network depending on which option is
cost-effective. Time, destination number and combination of both, are
the three options supported by the Least Cost Routing (LCR). It is
possible to route all the mobile number on the GSM and all the land line
numbers on the FXO port. Users can dial the numbers without worrying
about the cost. The SIMADO GFXD1111S automatically chooses the option
that costs the least for a given number.
