1.1 Product Description

Basic Features

The primary purpose of EasyGate is to transmit voice between a GSM network and an attached FXO-interface terminal (PBX, telephone, answering machine, etc.).

You can establish data connections (GPRS, CSD) and send/receive SMS using EasyGate in combination with a PC and appropriate software.

You can send an SMS to a pre-programmed number using the SMS sending input.

Analogue fax transmition on some models.

Advantages of 2N® EasyGate use

Call cost cutting

by forwarding GSM calls to EasyGate you save a lot on PSTN – GSM calls.

Easy installation

EasyGate is designed for immediate use without programming.

You get all you need in the delivery

your EasyGate delivery contains all you need to operate the system (the power supply adapter, telephone cable, PC serial cable, SMS input connector, CD-ROM with software).

Solution for sites without telephone lines

such as mountain chalets, exhibitions, conferences, etc.

CLIP

EasyGate is equipped with the FSK-based CLIP feature, so if a terminal capable of receiving the CLIP is used you know the caller‘s number.

Quick data connection

EasyGate transmits data using the high-speed GPRS connection (GPRS class 10, max. 85.6 kbps).

SMS sending input

simply send an SMS to a pre-programmed number by closing the contact. Recommended for easy supervision, simple securing, etc.

Radiation hazard minimization

you are not exposed to a direct effect of the antenna RF electromagnetic field while telephoning as opposed to mobile telephones.

Full UMTS/GSM coverage

EasyGate is available in the following versions: dual-band (900 and 1800MHz), tri-band for European markets (900, 1800 and 1900MHz), tri-band for the American market (850, 1800 and 1900MHz) and quadband (850, 900, 1800, 1900MHz).

Installation requirements

EasyGate is designed for vertical mounting on suspension holes (use the mounting pattern). This position is the best for signal reception because a vertical antenna is used. EasyGate can be operated in the horizontal position too where the GSM signal is good.

Install EasyGate with respect to the GSM signal strength – check the signal strength using the PCManager.

Place EasyGate out of range of sensitive devices and human bodies for electromagnetic interference reasons.

For the allowed range of operating temperatures refer to the “Technical Parameters”.

17

Before You Start

 

2.2

It is impossible to operate EasyGate on sites exposed to direct solar radiation or near heat sources.

EasyGate is designed for indoor use. It may not be exposed to rain, flowing water, condensed moisture, fog, etc.

EasyGate may not be exposed to aggressive gas, acid vapours, solvents, etc.

EasyGate is not designed for environments with high vibrations such as means of transport, machine rooms, etc

Caution

Check that you have everything needed for EasyGate start-up (SIM card, analogue phone set or FXO port of PBX, eventually PC etc.)

External Antenna Connection

Screw the antenna enclosed into the SMA antenna connector.

Caution

Tighten the antenna connector gently with your hand – never use wrenches!

Note

The antenna enclosed has a sufficient gain for trouble-free operation in normal conditions. If the UMTS signal is poor or you want to place your antenna separately from EasyGate , you can use an antenna with an SMAconnector terminated cable. The antenna should be mounted vertically.

The Antenna shall be located within the same building as the main equipment.

For antenna and cable parameters see the “Technical Parameters”.

SIM Card Installation

Open the SIM card holder on EasyGate ’s backside, insert the SIM card and close it.
