  1. Overviewof Fixed Cellular Technology

  2. Fixed Cellular Terminals(FCTs) Also known as GSM Gateways or “Premicells” What do they do? FCT’s route Landline to Mobile calls via the GSM Network to enable users to benefit from cheaper calling.

  3. How do FCTs work? Mobile Phone Average of 12p per minute Network Provider Office Telephone *Typical examples only. Subject to fixed line and mobile operators’ tariffs

  4. How do FCTs work? Mobile Phone Average of 9p per minute Network Provider 4.5p per minute* FCT Office Telephone *Typical examples only. Subject to fixed line and mobile operators’ tariffs

  5. The Portfolio Analogue BRI ISDN2e Multi-port Analogue FCT

  6. The Portfolio, Continued BlueTower PRI ISDN30e BlueStar PRI ISDN30e VoiceBlue Voice-over-Internet-Protocol (VoIP) StarGate PRI ISDN30e (IP version available)

  7. Some of the features available on 2N FCTs • Pass Thru – We can install on to Analogue, ISDN2 and ISDN30 lines as a “Pass thru” device. No PBX programming or capacity required. • Interim Disaster Recovery – We can offer resilience by enabling a secondary route out for landline to landline calls in case of PSTN / ISDN / ADSL failure • SIM Management – This enables us to stop using SIMS to route calls when the bundled minutes have been used up – No expensive, out of bundle, X-Net minutes to worry about. • Automatic Network SIM update – When Mobile Network Operators send SMS updates to their SIMS they often require a SIM reset or even take the SIM offline rendering it useless until rebooted. 2N PRI devices are Network SIM update compatible.

  8. The Benefits of Dial-thru PSTN PBX

  9. The Benefits of Dial-thru All calls to Landline PSTN 2N FCT PBX • No dedicated ports on the PBX required • Often no PBX programming required as routing carried out by FCT All calls to Mobiles GSM

  10. The Benefits of Dial-thru PSTN 2N FCT PBX All calls automatically route via GSM • No dedicated ports on the PBX required • Often no PBX programming required as routing carried out by FCT • Disaster Recovery solution (PRI) on PSTN Failure GSM

  11. EasyGate - Analogue “Dedicated” • Connects to a dedicated analogue trunk port on PABX • Takes 1 SIM Card so enables 1 call • Basic entry level product particularly sold to very small companies who want cheap unmanaged solution

  12. SmartGate - Analogue “Pass Thru” • Can sit “pass thru” on an analogue line before it reaches the PBX • Can connect to dedicated FXO or FXS port • Takes 1 SIM Card so enables 1 call • Sold to small companies who use up to 1200 mins landline to mobile a month

  13. Multi-port Analogue • Omikron - Analogue • Up to 8 Lines Monitored • Up to 8 Ports (concurrent calls) • Up to 8 SIMS • Dial-thru feature • SIM Management

  14. BRI FCT • ISDN2 ‘T’ or ‘S’ Bus • Up to 2 Ports (Concurrent calls) • Up to 2 SIMS • Dial Thru Feature • SIM Management

  15. VoIP (SIP) • VoiceBlue Lite (SIP) • VoiceBlue Enterprise (SIP / H.323) • 2 or 4 Ports (simultaneous calls) • 2 or 4 SIMS • SIM Management • SMS Capability on Voice Blue Enterprise • Sits as a static IP Address on the LAN

  16. BlueTower • Entry-level PRI (ISDN30e) FCT • Modular from 2 – 8 Ports • Up to 32 SIMS • Up to approx 14,000 mins a month • SIM Management • LAN Connectivity • Lite version available (Max 2 Ports) • Disaster recovery function • Automatic Network SIM update

  17. BlueStar • Modular up to 16 Ports • Up to 64 SIMS • Up to Approx 60,000 mins a month • SIM Management • LAN Connectivity • Rack mountable • Disaster recovery function • Automatic Network SIM update

  18. StarGate • Modular up to 32 Ports • Up to 256 SIMS • Up to Approx 250,000 mins a month • SIM Management • LAN Connectivity • Rack mountable • IP Version available • Disaster recovery function • Automatic Network SIM update

  19. Recommended Minutes per month : Ports • Up to 4,000 mins : 2 ports • 4,000 - 6,000 mins : 4 ports • 6,000 - 9,000 mins : 6 ports • 9,000 - 14,000 mins : 8 ports • 14,000 - 20,000 mins : 10 ports • 20,000 - 30,000 mins : 12 ports • 30,000 - 45,000 mins : 14 ports • 45,000 - 60,000 mins : 16 ports

  20. 3 Core questions • The type of FCT to be supplied can be determined by the following information… • Type of connectivity (ISDN2, ISDN30 etc) • Volume of current landline to GSM traffic • existing expenditure from landline to mobile (this enables us to present an ROI) Signal Strength site survey available on request.
