  • Page 4: Summary

    GSM/WCDMA phones are getting more and more popular all over the world with lower and lower service charges, the emergence of GoIP and WoIP bridge the gap between the traditional telephone networks and VoIP networks as shown in the diagram below.
  • Page 5: Protocols

    The idea is to route all your incoming GSM calls to a GoIP / WoIP via call forward or simply insert your SIM card to a GoIP / WoIP. You can then setup the GoIP / WoIP to forward all incoming calls to another GSM number in the world via a VoIP service provider.

    Please make sure that the orientation of the SIM Card is correct before inserting the card. For GoIP (1-channel), the SIM card insertion orientation is shown in the figure on the right. The metal contacts must face down and the cut corner is inserted first.
  • Page 10 For GoIP-16, the SIM card insertion orientation is shown in the figure below. The cut corner is pointing downward with the metal contacts facing the front of the GoIP. For GoIP-32, the SIM card insertion orientation is shown in the figure below.

Depending on your network environment, it can be connected various type of network equipment, such as network router, network switch / Hub, xDSL/Cable modem, etc. 3. The RJ-45 port, labelled “PC”, is intended for network sharing and it supports both bridge and router modes.

It is important to note that the VoIP lines and the GSM channels are not mapped to each other as a one to one relationship.
  • Page 17: Sim Call Forward

    The top table shows a number of GSM parameters which are useful to determine if the GSM channels in the gateway are working properly. Remote SIM - This tells if Remote SIM function is used or not. "DISABLE" means using the local SIM cards that are inserted to the device.

Language This sets the webpage and voice prompts language. Currently, only English and Simplified Chinese (Mandarin for voice prompt) are supported.
  • Page 21 Enabling this feature allows the SIM Cards to be installed in a SIM Bank rather than in the on-board SIM slots. GoIP can either register to a SIM Bank or a SIM Server. Please refer to the SIM Bank User Manual for more information.
  • Page 22: Network

    Please try the Short Command format if you have troubles to get the Remote SIM to work properly. 12. SMPP SMSC This parameter enables the GoIP to act as a SMPP SMSC (Short Message Service Center). The SMPP Client must use the ID, Password, and the Port number specified.

In the LAN port configuration shown on the left, select “Static IP” and then fill in the parameters as provided by your network administrator.
  • Page 24: Basic Voip

    As more features are added, SIP and H.323 VoIP protocols are supported in two different firmware versions. Except GoIP-1, all other models are now shipped with the SIP protocol firmware as a factory default. H.323 protocol is required, the firmware of the device can be changed to the one that supports H.323 protocol.
  • Page 25 1. Single Server Mode In this mode, only one SIP registration is used for single or multiple-line operation. Please make sure that your SIP server supports multiple-line operation and the SIP account is configured in the SIP server to match the number of lines available in the device. Call routing to a GSM channel is now based on the Routing Prefix of each GSM channel.
  • Page 27 Prefix is a text string which consists of digits, alphabets, and special characters. The maximum length of the Routing Prefix is 120 characters. 2. Config. By Line (for all models except GoIP-1) Mode This mode is only applicable for multi-line models.
  • Page 28 Clicking this button after Line 1 is configured will automatically configure other lines with the Line 1 settings with the changes displayed in the following message box. 3. Config. By Group (for all models except GoIP-1) This mode is basically a combination of Single Server mode and Config. By Line mode.
  • Page 29 SIP server is required to support NAT. Both routers should also be setup to map the signaling port and media ports to the SIP Server and the GoIP properly. Otherwise, VoIP calls may fail to establish properly in this network environment.
  • Page 30 Example: SIP Trunk Gateway2 = 123.124.125.x This example shows that Calls originated from 123.124.125.0 to 123.124.125.255 are accepted. Call routing to a GSM channel is now based on the Routing Prefix of each GSM channel (Line x). channel selection algorithm is the same as the one described in the Single Server Mode. The syntax for the Routing Prefix is defined in the Parameter Table for Single Server Mode.

  • Page 33 Signaling NAT Traversal This setting is not required if the target SIP server / PBX supports NAT traversal. None However, if your ISP blocks VoIP traffics, you could try to use Relay Proxy setting. Depending on how your ISP blocks VoIP traffics, the Relay Server method may or may not work in your network environment.

It enables a call to be redialed automatically in Enabled x seconds after the last attempt fails. GSM Dialing Timeout (s) This is a general parameter for all channels.
  • Page 38 Group mode since SIP registration is required. If this parameter is blank and the Callee Number does not equal to the SIP Number defined for this line, GoIP dials out the Caller Number according to the Dial Plan defined. Dial Plan This parameter is used to define rules on how to handle a numbers received for dialing out via a GSM channel.
  • Page 39: Call Out Auth

    Example: Dial Plan: 8613[5-9]XXXXXXXX:-86+0| This rule performs the following actions: 1. Phone number must be 13-digit long. 2. Phone number must start with 86135, 86136, 86137, 86138, 86139. 3. The prefix 86 is removed. 4. A digit 0 is added. 5.

    4. Forward incoming GSM calls (to the host channel) to other idle GSM channels. This enables a multi-channel GoIP and/or multiple GoIPs to simulate the “Calll Center” function. Therefore, only the phone number of the host channel is released for the public to call in. In fact, multiple lines are available to serve incoming calls.

  • Page 71: Appendix F. Volume Adjustment

    Appendix F. Volume Adjustment The volume adjustment of the device can be accessed via the URL below. http://<device address>/en_US/gaim.html The <device address> is the IP address or domain name of the device. The volume levels of the audio streams from VoIP to GSM and GSM to VoIP are controlled by the input gain and the output gain respectively. An increase in the output gain means that the GSM / PSTN party hears a higher audio level.
