Bridge different radio protocols \u2014 Icom IDAS\u2122 conventional\/trunked systems, wireless LAN, analogue systems, P25, DMR and even SIP phones. Enhance and secure communications for any operation.<br>All in one box<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The VE-PG4 combines RoIP, a SIP gateway, an IP router, an IP-PBX and an IP communication terminal controller in a single unit. Compared with an equivalent system built from several devices, the integrated VE-PG4 is easier to install and administer, with fewer configuration conflicts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Call recording to a USB drive<\/strong><br>Incoming and outgoing calls can be recorded to an external USB device connected to the VE-PG4. Up to four recording settings can be programmed. The call type to record can be set to &#171;All&#187;, &#171;Group&#187; or &#171;Individual&#187; calls. In addition, the &#171;Monitor&#187; function forwards received audio to a selected device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Desk microphone for base station operation<\/strong><br>Connect the optional HM-241 speaker microphone to the front-panel microphone jack of the VE-PG4 for simple base station operation. Built-in echo cancelling and noise reduction enable full-duplex communication with IP advanced radio systems such as the IP100H, IP501H and IP501M.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Location and status information<\/strong><br>GPS position and status information from IP501H\/IP501M LTE transceivers can be received and forwarded to a PC to track handheld or vehicle radio users.<br>RC-FS10 remote communicator software<br>The optional RC-FS10 remote communicator creates a virtual IP radio on a PC and can communicate with land mobile radios, LTE radios and IP communication terminals through the VE-PG4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Serial pass-through<\/strong><br>The serial pass-through function lets you connect a serial device to the VE-PG4 to extend communication between the device and a controlling PC. Virtual serial port software for Windows\u00ae PCs is supplied with the VE-PG4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SIP server and IP-PBX functions<\/strong><br>The built-in simple SIP server lets you assign IP phone numbers to extension groups. The VE-PG4 can also connect to an external SIP server as a client. The following IP-PBX settings are programmable:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Voice phonebook<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>DID (direct inward dialling)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Works with Panasonic KX-UT and KX-HDV series IP phones<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Call log<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Extension presence<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Telephone number routing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Outside line control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Caller prioritisation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Outgoing call restriction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SIP conferencing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Router functions with VPN tunnelling<\/strong><br>The VE-PG4 supports LAN connections, DHCP client, static IP address or PPPoE. The VPN function creates a secure IP tunnel over the Internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Half-width 1U form factor<\/strong><br>The VE-PG4 takes up only half the width of a 19-inch rack, so it can be installed alongside repeaters, switches and other equipment. LTE (4G)\/3G antenna bases with 1.5 m (4.9 ft) cables are supplied, in case the antennas need to be relocated for better reception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Online firmware updates<\/strong><br>The VE-PG4 supports automatic and online firmware updates for remote maintenance. Settings can be backed up and easily restored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Management functions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>SYSLOG and SNMP<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Telnet and SSH<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ping and traceroute tests<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fault monitoring, such as LAN port link loss and SIP server registration errors<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Administrator password<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SNTP server<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Security slot<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bridging communication between systems and devices Unites your land mobile radio systemsThe VE-PG4 connects almost any modern communication system with the Icom\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":915,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[86,71],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-966","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-icom-en","category-systems-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nelt.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/966","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nelt.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nelt.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nelt.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nelt.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=966"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/nelt.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/966\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nelt.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/915"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nelt.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=966"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nelt.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=966"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nelt.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=966"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
