Send SMS via the Internet
If you are planning to send more than 4000
SMS a day from your office computer or IT environment, or if you plan to
transmit messages infrequently and you want to send a large amount of SMS
messages in a very short period of time, than installing an SMS service with
IP SMS connectivity is well advised. This kind of system is able to connect
directly to the SMSC (SMS Center) of a GSM service provider thus it is
excellent for transmitting huge amount of SMS messages.
What do you need?
This solution requires an SMS subscription purchased
from an SMS service provider, that allows you
to connect to the mobile network to transfer SMS messages (using SMPP, CIMD2,
UCP, HTTP). This subscription might have a monthly
fee and a fee that will be charged for each SMS you send. It is worth to
consider choosing a tariff package which offers
favorable text message prices. You also need Internet connection, a computer
with a Windows operation system and Ozeki NG SMS Gateway software. The
bandwidth of the Internet connection needs to be min. 64 Kbps so a leased
line, ADSL, Cable modem, T1 and other Internet connections are adequate.

Where can you obtain them?
The IP SMS subscription is obtainable from any SMS service
provider on the Internet or from your local Mobile Network Operator (MNO).
Internet SMS service providers will sell you SMS credits and will provide a
per SMS tariff. If you sign up with your local mobile network operator, you
will probably be charged a monthly fee and a small rate per SMS. After
subscribing for the service, the SMS service provider (or your local MNO)
will provide you their IP address, a port number and a username and password
to access their service. These parameters are needed to configure the
connection in the Ozeki NG SMS Gateway software. The SMS gateway software
can be obtained at Ozeki Informatics Ltd. Please send us an e-mail to get a
quotation. In the e-mail tell us how many messages per minute do you want to
send or receive in your system.
