1.1 Product Description
2NVoiceBlue Next is a device that helps directly interconnect a SIP-supporting VoIP
network with GSM networks and can be used for direct connection with a telephone
set. The voice mode, i.e. outgoing and incoming calls, is the basic function of the
gateway. 2NVoiceBlue Next is equipped with all voice mode functions and provides
the highest user comfort. In addition to voice transmission, 2NVoiceBlue Next
enables you to send and receive text messages (SMS). No additional equipment (such
as an external phone) is needed for normal operation. You can use the web interface
or AT commands for all the gateway settings. The programmable parameters are set
in such a way that you can make calls the moment you connect the system to the
Ethernet, connect an antenna and insert the SIM card. 2NVoiceBlue Next can be
combined with the 2N Mobility Extension service (remote GSM extension) for up to 8
users1. 2NVoiceBlue Next also provides connection to the 2NSIM Star system2.

1.2 Safety Precautions
It is prohibited to use any transmitters, including the UMTS/GSM devices, in areas
where explosives are used, such as quarries.
It is prohibited to use the GSM gateways at petrol stations where mobile telephones
are also prohibited.
GSM phones may affect sensitive life-saving devices in medical centres. Therefore, it is
forbidden to use GSM/UMTS devices, including the GSM gateways, in such facilities.
In general, any prohibition regarding mobile phones based on RF energy radiation
applies to GSM/UMTS devices too.
If necessary, the GSM gateways may be installed at a safe distance from the
prohibited area and connected with the original place through an Ethernet cable.
Although GSM gateways are not intended for cars or aeroplanes, all relevant
prohibitions and regulations regarding mobile phones apply to them too.
