Introduction

Overview

With years of Internet telephony and router manufacturing experience, PLANET proudly introduces the
The PLANET VIP-281GS VoIP GSM Gateway is a signal-GSM channel gateway that supports SIP and
H.323 VoIP protocol at the same time. The VIP-281GS provides a total solution for integrating
voice-data network and the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM).
The VIP-281GS is equipped with both FXS and PSTN interfaces, which gives the gateway a wide
range of potential applications. The VIP-281GS can be installed on a PBX trunk line to enrich its
trunks-GSM and VoIP routes. The PBX is able to have voice communication to either VoIP or GSM
environment by the least costs.
Meanwhile, the VIP-281GS is designed for comfort, ease-of-use with a sophisticated and satisfaction to
customers. The VIP-281GS not only inherits traditions of quality voice communications but the
VIP-281GS also eliminates the human resource of VoIP network deployment. With optimized
H.323/SIP architecture, the VIP-281SG is the ideal choices for P2P voice chat and ITSP cost-saving
solution, but also provides network-converting feature to translate the packet network into traditional
PBX system.
With built-in PPPoE/DHCP/DDNS clients, up to 2 concurrent connections in VIP-281GS, voice
communications can be established from anywhere around the world. The VIP-281GS comes with
intuitive user-friendly and powerful management interface (web/telnet), that can dramatically reduce IT
personnel resource and complete GSM/VoIP deployment in a short time. Plus remote management
capability, administrators can monitor machine/network status or proceed
maintenance/trouble-shooting service via Internet browser or telnet session.
Besides, it provides voice channels status display and optimized packet voice streaming over managed
and public (Internet) IP networks.
Network Features
Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) Client Support:
The router has a built-in PPPoE client for establishing a DSL link connection with the ISP. There is
no need to install a further PPPoE driver on computers.
Smart QoS
The smart QoS provides stable voice quality while users access internet from private LAN
to internet at the same time. This device would start suppressing throughput automatically
when VoIP call was proceeded and it keep full speed access when there is no VoIP traffic.
DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Server)
DDNS is a service that maps Internet domain names to IP addresses. It allows you to provide
Internet users with a domain name (instead of an IP Address) to access Virtual Servers.
NAT Traversal
The NAT traversal allows gateway to operate behind any NAT/Firewall device. There is no need to
change any configuration of NAT/Firewall like setting virtual server.
VoIP Features
H.323 / SIP dual mode communication
SIP 2.0 (RFC3261), H.323v4 compliant
Peer-to-Peer / H.323 GK / SIP proxy calls
PSTN lifeline support
Voice codec support: G.711(A-law /μ-law), G.729 AB, G.723 (6.3 Kbps / 5.3Kbps)
Voice processing: Voice Active Detection, DTMF detection, G.165/G.168 compliant echo canceller,
silence detection.
Built-in adaptive buffer that helps to smooth out the variations of delay (jitter) in voice traffic.
Voice channels status display: This function displays each port status such as on-hook, off-hook,
calling number, talk duration, codec.
GSM Features
SMS Server for SMS sending and receiving
Worldwide GSM network usable (850/900/1800/1900 MHz)
