Using a remote SIM card with Bluetooth wireless technology
1.Using a remote SIM card with
Bluetooth wireless technology
The car kit phone supports Bluetooth wireless technology and
Bluetooth SIM access profile.
Bluetooth wireless technology
y
Bluetooth wireless technology is an international standard
for wireless short-range communication, allowing you to
establish a wireless radio connection between your car kit
phone and a compatible device supporting Bluetooth
wireless technology within a maximum range of 10 metres.
Such devices may include, for example, a compatible mobile
phone, laptop computer or wireless headset. The wireless
connection between the compatible devices established via
Bluetooth technology is free of charge for the user.
Bluetooth SIM Access Profile
y
Bluetooth SIM Access Profile is an industry standard which
allows a device, e.g. a car kit phone, which supports
Bluetooth wireless technology to access a SIM card in a
compatible mobile phone over a wireless link. The car kit
phone is then able to read and write data from/to the
remote SIM card inserted in the compatible mobile phone
and to log into the GSM network. A separate SIM card
inserted in the car kit phone is not required in this case.
You have switched on a compatible mobile phone supporting
the Bluetooth SIM Access Profile standard, a valid SIM card is
inserted in the compatible mobile phone, Bluetooth wireless
technology has been activated, the compatible mobile phone
has been paired with the car kit phone and you get into your
car.
How the GSM/Bluetooth wireless connection works
When the car ignition is switched on, a wireless connection is
established between the compatible mobile phone and the car
kit phone via Bluetooth SIM Access Profile. The car kit phone
requests the compatible mobile phone to log out of the GSM
wireless network and to deactivate the mobile phone
components required for the GSM connection. The car kit phone
then uses Bluetooth SIM Access Profile to access the SIM card
inserted in the compatible mobile phone (remote SIM card) and
utilises this card’s profile to log into the GSM network. Now the
car kit phone handles all incoming and outgoing calls and
messages while accessing the SIM card of the compatible
mobile phone.
Using a remote SIM card with Bluetooth wireless technology
With Bluetooth SIM Access Profile, the car kit phone combines
the advantages of a fixed installed car phone such as excellent
audio quality, use of a compatible, external GSM antenna and
optimum ease of operation with the advantages of a car kit
installation, e.g. use of the SIM card inserted in a compatible
mobile phone or access to the relevant contact data.
And all this time the compatible mobile phone can conveniently
be located in the user’s briefcase; there is no need for it to be
inserted in a cradle for operation. The wireless Bluetooth SIM
Access Profile connection between the car kit phone and the
compatible mobile phone is upheld either until the compatible
mobile phone is moved out of range (e.g. when the user leaves
the car) or until the user breaks the connection by pressing a
button on the compatible mobile phone to change back to
standard operation of the mobile or to switch off the phone.
If desired, a separate car SIM card can be inserted in the car kit
phone. This SIM card can be used when the wireless link to the
compatible mobile phone established via Bluetooth technology
is interrupted or if the car kit phone is to be operated using a
permanent car SIM card.
If you use Bluetooth technology functions regularly, you can
y
deactivate the option "Authorisation request" in the
compatible mobile phone. Then connections between the
devices via Bluetooth wireless technology can conveniently
be made automatically without separate acceptance or
authorisation. To do so, scroll to the menu item View paired
devicesand select the option Request authorisationand set
it toOff. For further information, see the user’s guide
applicable for the compatible mobile phone with Bluetooth
technology that you are using.
For information on compatible mobile phones, see the Nokia
website: http://www.nokia.com.
