Introduction
Welcome to Multi-Tech’s MultiMobile SoftGSM, model MTSGSM, consisting of a cable and software
(driver and utility applications) which enables digital, cellular, radio communications. The special
Multi-Tech cable provides the connection between a GSM-compatible PC and a GSM-supported
handset. The driver software loads the device drivers providing access to Global System for Mobile
Communications (GSM) services. The utility software provides access to additional services such as
Phonebook Manager and Short Message Service (SMS) Manager.
GSM is a digital cellular radio network used throughout most of the industrial world. It provides
