TLC’s Laptop GSM System

The LTGSM System is a complete GSM system in a suitcase. The package contains a

MSC, GSN*, SMSC, AUC*, MMSC*, BSC and BTS. This system is capable of providing

Voice, Circuit Switched Data (CSD) and High Speed Data. Due to the system type, the

area of coverage is limited to 500 feet indoors and approximately 100 yards outdoors

depending on the environment. Larger footprints can be achieved with the addition of

TLC’s Range Enhancement Pack (REP) and external antennas.

The main features of the LTGSM System are as follows:

•Single Chassis MSC, BSC, GSN*, AUC* and SMSC with single PCI slot

for external voice connectivity

•External connectivity is achieved via a SIP interface

•Single Carrier BTS with internal antenna (up to 20 supported)

•Small package consisting of all communications equipment and power

equipment

Note: * Indicates a non-standard feature and the purchase of a separate software

license is required.

Single Chassis MSC, BSC, GSN, and SMSC

A single Laptop computer running Windows XP with Linux Redhat on a virtual machine

is used to support the MSC, BSC, GSN, AUC and SMSC functionality of the network.

While this is a very small package it is capable of supporting up to 20 single carrier

BTSs.

External Connectivity

External connectivity is achieved with a single Ethernet interface. Both administration as

well as voice traffic is carried over this interface.
