Applications

GSM Trunking for IP Phone Systems
The matrix VG Media Gateway helps organizations make huge number of calls over mobile networks to drastically cut down recurring telephony bills. When connected with existing hardware or software-based IP phone system, VG allows extension users to place outbound calls using integrated mobile SIMs similar to landline trunks.

The VG also delivers value-added features such as Host Swapping of SIM Cards, SIM Balance Recharge from GUI and High-Speed Internet Access over 3G. This makes it an ideal solution for small and medium enterprises, remote offices and project sites and rural and educational institutions.
