1. Introduction
1.1 Overview
The SmartCell 212 and 112 gateway enables direct connection of an
organization's internal telephony system to commercial cellular networks via
an already existing Private Branch Exchange (PBX) system.
The SmartCell 212 has a standard ISDN BRI “S0” interface on the Line side
and connects with 2 channels to any GSM cellular network to create a
cellular gateway. The SmartCell 112 is a single channel gateway. SmartCell
212/112 operates at 900MHz/1800MHz. The 212-1900 and 112-1900
models operate at 900MHz/1900MHz.

4.2 Configuration of the PABX
The PABX connected to a SmartCell device must be properly configured in
order to operate. The table below describes the configurations. For more
detailed information regarding the programming of the PABX, please contact
your PABX supplier.

4.4 Cable Connections
4.4.1 Normal Connection
In normal connection, the 212/112 is used as the NT side and the
PABX as the TE side. The Sync (timing) is delivered from the 212/112
to the PABX over the ISDN cable. The Sync IN/TE port of the 212/112
is not used.
Note: If the PABX will not accept the 212/112 as a sync source, use the
configuration described in paragraph 4.4.3.
Note: ISDN Ready LED will be ON.
4.4.2 Partial TE mode
In this mode, the 212/112 is used as the TE side and the PABX is used
as the NT side of the ISDN connection. The Sync (timing) is delivered
from the PABX to the 212/112 over the same ISDN cable. To enable
this mode, use the QMS S/W to set the 212/112 to partial TE mode
(Layer 1 = TE, Layer 2 = TE, Layer 3 = NT).
Note: Sync IN/TE LED will be ON.

4.4.3 External Sync mode
In this mode, the PABX is used as the TE side and the 212/112 is used
as the NT side of the ISDN connection. However, the Sync (timing) is
delivered from the PABX to the 212/112 over a second cable (a straight
RJ-45 cable, provided with 212/112). This cable connects to any NT
port of the PABX, without interrupting the traffic. If more than one
212/112 need to be connected to the PABX - a chain connection can be
used such that the first 212/112 provides timing to the second, the
second 212/112 to the third and so on.

4.5 Getting Started
4.5.1 After making all connections and installing the SIM cards, make sure
the POWER LED is lit. If it is not, make sure that the power supply is
properly connected to the unit and to the AC mains.
4.5.2 During the first few seconds after powering the unit, the STATUS LED
will start blinking, indicating unit initialisation. Once the SIM cards
have been registered and are operational, the STATUS LEDs will stop
blinking.
4.5.3 Verify that the RCPT. LVL LED is green, indicating high reception
level. To improve the reception level:
Move the antenna to a better location.
•
