How do GSM gateways work?

Many telecommunications businesses use different telephone exchanges.

The GSM Gateway will give a business lower call costs between landline and a mobile telephone. The GSM gateway exploits the cheaper tariff of mobile to mobile rather than landline to mobile phone calls which have more expensive call rates. The GSM Gateway was part of the revolution of telecommunications. It started in the 1980’s with the introduction of mobile phones. The GSM Gateway hub contains normally two or more mobile phone SIM cards. This of course depends on how many mobile phones you have in your business. All outgoing calls from a landline to mobile phones go to the GSM gateway hub and are reconnected to one of the SIM cards. This switch to a SIM card now makes your call a mobile to mobile phone call which allows you the cheaper call rates.

The GSM Gateway is used already by all types of businesses. This service would be a great benefit to businesses that make lots of landline to mobile calls. For example if you make mobile phone calls that equate to 20% of your total calls, it could make up 60% of your total telephone bill cost.

With some providers this service does not have any capital cost associated with its equipment. The hub will manage your call volumes whatever the size of your business. Most services are fully installed and maintained by the provider.

Research has shown that people who answer a telephone with caller ID are more inclined to answer a telephone number that says unknown caller. Therefore there is more chance of connecting to the person on the first try.

To finish, the most important feature with a GSM Gateway is that it provides a crash option which gives you a separate line if your lines fail. This allows your business to function correctly.
