Description

The Yeastar GSM Module is a modular telephony accessory designed to add 1 GSM channel to compatible Yeastar IP PBX systems. As a key component of Yeastar’s modular product line, it enables businesses to seamlessly integrate their IP PBX with mobile cellular networks. This provides a versatile and cost-effective solution for reducing communication expenses, ensuring business continuity, and expanding a company’s communication reach.

The GSM Module is a compact circuit board that plugs into a dedicated module slot on various Yeastar S-Series and P-Series PBX systems, as well as some MyPBX models. By inserting a standard SIM card directly into the module, the IP PBX gains the ability to make and receive calls over a cellular network. This functionality is particularly valuable for businesses that make a high volume of calls to mobile phones, as they can leverage mobile-to-mobile rates, which are often significantly lower than landline-to-mobile rates.

The “plug-and-play” nature of the GSM Module makes installation simple and straightforward. Once the module is inserted into the PBX’s chassis, the system automatically detects the new channel, which can then be configured through the PBX’s web-based management interface. The module supports a wide range of mobile network bands (quad-band GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz), ensuring compatibility with most cellular carriers worldwide.

In addition to voice calls, a significant value-added feature of the GSM Module is its support for SMS functionality. This allows businesses to send and receive text messages through the PBX system, which is an excellent tool for customer relations, marketing campaigns, and internal communication. Furthermore, the GSM channel can serve as a vital backup trunk, automatically routing call traffic over the cellular network in the event of an internet or landline outage, thus ensuring business continuity.
