1Preface
Welcome to use this fixed GSM phone, the SAGEM RT1000. In order to use it
correctly, please read carefully this manual.
This telephone provides similar services as a desktop telephone for PSTN (Public
Switched Telephone Network). But it doesn't need a telephone line: instead of being
connected to the PSTN, it provides access to a GSM network through a radio link.
It can be used everywhere so far there is a GSM coverage.
This telephone is delivered with a small external antenna. In areas far from the GSM
base station, this antenna can be replaced by a high gain antenna connected to the
SAGEM RT1000 by a coaxial cable. In the case of an outdoor antenna, lightning
protections shall be used and installed by professional staff according to rule book.
