5150 SeriesThe Range Networks 5150 Series is a family of GSM/SIP

access points that allows cellular handsets to interface

directly with VoIP networks. Based on the OpenBTS

RAN implementation, the 5150 Series presents a

standard GSM radio interface to cellphones and then

represents these as SIP endpoints to a VoIP network.

Range Networks commercial open source software

allows operators to reduce the cost and complexity of

their mobile networks. The 5150 is a complete RAN

node with integrated radio resource control. In small

networks, the 5150 can be used as complete a network

in a box comprising both RAN and core network

functions. It can also be used as a RAN element in

larger networks. To minimize operating costs, the 5150

processes local calls without the need for backhaul

and consumes little power.
