hi all,
Swisscom will discontinue the old GSM service soon, so I'll need to replace an old gateway.
Any recommendation will be appreciated. I'm looking for a ready-made voice gateway, as follows:
* 4 or 5 SIM card slots * support for VoLTE and UMTS (in Swiss frequency bands) * Voice calls routed via SIP * API for receiving SMS * Nice to have: support for OpenVPN or some other VPN.
thanks, stan
Hi Stan
You should take a look at the Beronet VoLTE SBC: https://www.beronet.com/gateway/volte-sbc/
It does all you want, up to 6 SIM slots, SIP routing, SMS via REST-API and there is an "app marketplace" where you can install OpenVPN as client or server on the box.
Feel free to contact me if you need someone to import one :-)
Best Regards
Jean-Pierre

I've been using the Berofix boxes for about 10 years with various modules, mostly BRI and FXS. I've one running with a GSM module for for voice calls. Works like a charm. I've never used the SMS API though. Hardware quality is perfect and as they are based in Berlin, Support is in the same timezone and in German if ever need something.

Thanks Jean-Pierre, I ordered the beroNet box. It's pretty nice. A few issues with them, but in general they are solid boxes:
-- OpenVPN of an old release, with some buggy TLS. Certificate-based authentication doesn't work because of that. Had to do shared-secret authentication.
-- one "admin" account for GUI and API, impossible to add a separate API user.
-- Problems with receiving SMS, I opened a support ticket. Probably it's because the LTE modules are relatively new.
Voice over 3G and 4G works totally fine.

It always hurts me (as one of the OpenVPN maintainers) if I read such.
So - if someone from beroNet has interest in working on that, feel free to contact me.
