The CallFinder GSM cellular gateway connects to a PBX, KTS or analog phone to route incoming and outgoing calls over the GSM network. The gateway can be connected to an analog CO port (POTS line) or analog station port (extension line) on the PBX or

KTS. When connected to the CO port, the user simply dials a prefix pre-programmed for connecting to the GSM network and then dials the number desired. When connected to a station port, the line to the GSM network is activated by dialing the extension number, and then the number. When directly connected to an analog phone, the user simply dials the number.

The CallFinder GSM cellular gateway is an effective solution for any company looking to
reduce telephone call costs. Since most cellular rate plans are fairly inexpensive, and cellular-to-cellular calls are often free, a company can immediately realize substantial savings in fixed line-to-mobile long distance calling. In addition, calls over a cellular network to any destination are often free on nights and weekends.

The CallFinder GSM cellular gateway provides a fast, easy fixed line alternative for small offices, SOHO environments or other remote locations. Simply connect an analog phone to the gateway, and the user can make affordable cellular calls over the GSM network. There is no need for fixed wiring, making it an ideal solution to any environment where a fixed line is not readily available such as mobile centers, or retail kiosks.

The CallFinder GSM cellular gateway provides an easy, quick solution in emergency
situations. If PSTN service were to go down, a GSM gateway attached to the phone system would allow users to make and receive calls over the GSM network. This solution provides affordable “peace of mind” and helps ensure critical communication in disaster situations.
