Easy Call - Sending SMS

Dialup Access:

The most common way for sending SMS has been to use a modem and call the operators messaging centre.

Mobile Originated:

During the last years it has been more and more common to use a mobile phone for sending SMS. The benefits are:

- faster sending (approx. 5 secs)

- more robust

- no need for an analogues line

Easy Call has for many years given support in sending SMS by using a mobile phone (with the ETSI 07.05 protocol implemented). We suggest the Siemens MC35i, which can be purchased from us.

SNPP, WCTP:

These are other technologies for sending SMS by using the Internet. But because Easy Call is an alarm sending application for Network Management we have not implemented these protocols. It´s a bad design to send out alarms over the same media as we monitor.
