SMS Gateway requires a connection between the PC and Mobile Terminal.
The interface must be serial, such as a standard PC COM Port, or a wireless serial interface over
Infrared & Bluetooth.
NOTE: USB is NOT supported.
The preferred style of device for use with SMS Gateway is a
"black box" that has easy to use connections for Power, Antenna, and a 9 Pin Serial Cable
port suitable for direct connection to a PC "COM" port.
These type of devices are well suited to environments where SMS Gateway would be used,
as the need to use the terminal as a phone is in this case is not likely to ever be a requirement.
Please note: SMS Gateway will work with any GSM handset or modem that
conforms to the ETSI 07.05 and 03.40 standards and has a serial type interface,
please check your equipment specifications to see if it will work with SMS Gateway.
