Universal multi-task communication module (GSM-X LTE)

GSM-X LTE offers extensive communication functionality and support for multipath communication. The device comes with a cellular phone that supports data transmission using LTE* technology.

The module can be used to implement reporting in alarm systems. For this purpose, it should be connected to the dialer or suitably configured outputs of the control panel.

An important feature of the device is its expandability by adding the GSM-X-ETH Ethernet module, so that reporting can be implemented using two independent paths (data transmission via cellular network* and Ethernet). Another option to add the GSM-X-PSTN module, in which case the analog PSTN telephone line will be used as an alternative transmission path. Thanks to constant monitoring of the state of connections with the monitoring station and substitutability of transmission paths, the stringent EN 50136 requirements for the so-called Dual Path Reporting are met.

GSM-X LTE allows sending notifications to 8 telephone numbers – this can be done in several ways: using voice, SMS or PUSH messages, or the CLIP service.

The module offers extensive compatibility with the INTEGRA and INTEGRA Plus control panels. When connected to the control panel RS-232 interface, it will perform reporting and messaging (in the case of INTEGRA Plus, the SMS content is based directly on the event log). It also enables remote programming of these control panels from a computer with the DLOADX program and administration of alarm systems using the GUARDX program.

The device can fully replace the analog telephone line, working as a backup communication path. When the line is not available, the module will divert voice calls to the cellular network. In the case of PBX systems, it can be used as an additional external line.

GSM-X LTE is provided with 4 programmable outputs that can be controlled remotely using SMS, CLIP, DTMF, GX CONTROL mobile application, GX Soft configuration software or via IoT. Consequently, the module can be used to remotely control the alarm system or other devices.

For programming and configuration, you should use a computer with the GX Soft program installed. The computer can connects to the module locally (USB port) or remotely (data transmission via cellular network* / Ethernet**).

Remote update of the device firmware is possible owing to the module compatibility with the UpServ update server.

The built-in cell phone has two slots for nano-SIM cards. If communication with the first card operator's network fails, the module automatically switches to the other one to keep communication uninterrupted.
