UNIVERSAL COMMUNICATION MODULE
GSM-X LTE
GSM-X LTE is a multi-purpose communication module that offers extensive functionality and support for multiple communication paths.
It can easily find numerous applications, some of which can be implemented in parallel.
Full flexibility
The module can be used in many existing and newly built installations. GSM-X LTE can receive event information from the connected alarm control panel or the controller and forward it to monitoring stations of security agencies or interested persons via cellular network, Ethernet* or analog PSTN** telephone line.
The module can be used to implement remote control functions, such as arming the system or opening the gate, also using the mobile application.
GSM-X LTE can give a "new life" to some older alarm systems.

Compatibility with INTEGRA and INTEGRA Plus
alarm control panels
GSM-X LTE can interact with the INTEGRA and INTEGRA Plus series, via the RS-232 interface. It can report events from these control panels through all available paths: audio (via cellular network or PSTN*), SMS, Ethernet** and LTE***. In addition, the function of automatic creation of SMS notifications is available for INTEGRA Plus - content of the message is based on the event list.
Additionally, GSM-X LTE allows remote connection to the INTEGRA and INTEGRA Plus programs:
- DLOADX – which is used for configuration, and
- GUARDX – which is used for supervision and administration of alarm systems.

** Data transmission via Ethernet - when GSM-X LTE is used with GSM-X-ETH
*** Mobile data transmission via LTE/HSPA+/EDGE/GPRS (depending on the capabilities of the cellular network)
Communication
The device comes with an integrated cell phone. It has two SIM card slots and allows you to use services provided by different operators. If one of the cards causes any communication problems, the module automatically switches to the other card to maintain continuous communication. A very useful feature is the prepaid SIM card handling functions that allow you to check your account balance and set notifications in case it has dropped below the required minimum.
An undisputable advantage of the device is that it allows simple expansion by adding one of the modules: GSM-X-ETH (Ethernet) or GSM-X-PSTN (telephone). It provides access to additional communication channels – Ethernet network or analog telephone line.

Effective reporting
As regards reporting, information can be effectively transmitted using:
- via cellular network* – using the TCP or UDP protocols
- voice – audio path via cellular network or PSTN**
- text – SMS messages
- Ethernet*** - via TCP or UDP.
Where events are made available via mobile network or Ethernet***, the module supports two transmission formats:
- SIA-IP (for communication with any monitoring station)
- SATEL (for communication with SATEL made devices: STAM-2 monitoring station or SMET-256 reporting converter).
Support for several transmission paths in one device guarantees fast and reliable transfer of information. You can use each of them independently, defining specific tasks to be carried out.
Dual Path Reporting
GSM-X LTE with the GSM-X-ETH module connected makes possible reporting through two independent paths: mobile network* or Ethernet (with priority setting option).
The device is constantly monitoring the status of connections with the monitoring station and, when necessary, it replaces one channel with the other.
When it is the GSM-X-PSTN module that works with GSM-X LTE, the dual path reporting is performed through cellular network or analog telephone line.
GSM-X LTE offers the possibility of reporting to two autonomous monitoring stations. If necessary, each of them may be assigned two IP addresses (TCP/UDP reporting) or two telephone numbers (audio reporting).
* Mobile data transmission via LTE/HSPA+/EDGE/GPRS (depending on the capabilities of the cellular network)
Notification messaging
The GSM-X LTE module makes it possible to send notifications to up to 8 telephone numbers. This function can be implemented by using:
- voice – via built-in voice notification circuit
- SMS messages
- PUSH notifications
- CLIP service.
The device can transmit notifications to the recipient through several independent paths. The event alert will be sent via all of the preprogrammed channels, therefore the information will reach the recipient even when one of them turns out to be unavailable.
GSM gateway
The module can fully replace the analog line. In that case, it generates voltage states and line status signals (e.g. on-hook/off-hook) typical of the line and, after connection via mobile network is set up, it transmits signals coming from the analog line. When the line is unavailable, it diverts the voice calls to the mobile network. In the case of private branch exchanges (PBX), it functions as an additional external line, which allows you to optimize the cost of calls (to the mobile networks). The module can also filter calls, generate a ringing tone and caller ID information.
Remote control
GSM-X LTE has 4 outputs that can be remotely controlled and activated in several ways:
In addition to controlling the alarm system, the GSM-X LTE module will be a perfect choice to implement automation functions, including control of lighting, gates, wickets, roller shutters/blinds, solenoid valves, etc. If needed, it will turn on heating, air conditioning, smoke extraction, watering and many other systems.
Mobile access
The application GX CONTROL allows:
- verification of the status of inputs and outputs (connected devices)
- viewing troubles with the possibility of clearing their memory
- viewing event memory with the possibility of filtering
- remote control of module outputs (devices connected to them).
PUSH messages give the user permanent access to information.
Importantly, configuration of the application is very simple, and so is connection with the module. All you have to do is send an SMS from the application level to the device and receive the configuration data in response. Another, equally convenient way is to scan the QR code that is generated in the GX Soft program or in a preconfigured application.
Functional software
GX Soft is an advanced tool provided with a friendly and clear interface, intended for configuration as well as diagnostics of SATEL communication modules.
The module and the program interact locally (via USB) or remotely (via Ethernet* or mobile network).

Easy and secure connection
Thanks to the SATEL connection set-up service, you can enjoy many functionalities of GX CONTROL and GX Soft. Configuration of communication between the application / program and the GSM-X LTE module takes just a few moments, without any need to use external IP address or advanced network settings. When being sent, the data are encrypted using a sophisticated algorithm to ensure security of the transmission.
Remote software update
GSM-X LTE is compatible with the UpServ program, which enables the device to be remotely updated. This allows the installer to quickly add new functionalities without having to physically visit the premises and dismount the module.

Characteristics
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 or GX Soft configuration software. 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.
