Ensures Cooperative Information
Sharing Across Systems and Devices
The VE-PG4 is a versatile RoIP (Radio over IP network) gateway unit, whichseamlessly interconnects LMR radios, LTE radios, IP communication terminals,
IP phone systems and external devices. In addition to the IP Network (LAN/WAN),
the built-in LTE module* provides virtually nationwide communication coverage.
* Service availability depends on the country. Network coverage provided by a custom SIM card.

Features
All in One Package

SIP Server and IP-PBX Functions

Call Recording to a USB Drive• Voice Phonebook• DID (Direct Inward Dialing)• Used with Panasonic KX-UTand KX-HDV series IP phones• Call log• Extension presence

The VE-PG4 includes built-in RoIP, SIP gateway, IP router, IP
PBX and IP communication terminal controller functions, in onebox. In comparison with a similar system combining several
devices, installation and administration of the integrated VE-PG4
can be simpler, with less conﬂiction of settings.

Incoming/Outgoing calls can be recorded to an external USB
device connected to the VE-PG4. Up to four recording settings
are programmable. The recording call type is selectable from All,Group, and Individual calls. In addition, the Monitor function
transfers the received audio data to an intended device.

The built-in simple SIP server enables you to assign IP phone
numbers with extension groups. The VE-PG4 can be connected
to external SIP server as a client. The following IP-PBX settings
are programmable.
• Phone number routing• Outside line regulations• Caller prioritization• External call limiting• SIP conferencing

Router Functions with VPN Tunnel

The VE-PG4 supports LAN, DHCP client, Static IP or PPPoE
connections. The VPN function creates a secure IP tunnel
connection over the Internet.

Half-width 1U Form Design

The VE-PG4 occupies only half the width of a 19-inch rack. It canbe functionally installed with repeaters, switching hubs and otherequipment. LTE (4G)/3G antenna bases with 1.5 m (4.9 ft) ofcable are supplied in case antennas need to be relocated forbetter reception.

Microphone Connection for Base Operation

Connect HM-241, optional speaker-microphone
to the microphone connector on the VE-PG4’s
front panel to enable simple base operation.
Echo canceller and noise canceller functions
are built-in for full-duplex communication withIP advanced radio system, like the IP100H,
IP501H or IP501M.

Online Firmware Update
Position and Status Information

GPS position and status information from the IP501H/IP501M
LTE transceivers can be received and transferred to a PC totrack the location of the radio users or a user in a vehicle.
* GPS mapping software is required for GPS data.

Remote Communicator Software, RC-FS10
The optional RC-FS10 remote communicator
creates an IP-based virtual radio on a PC,
and can communicate with land mobile
radios, LTE radios, and IP communication
terminals through the VE-PG4.

The VE-PG4 supports automatic and online ﬁrmware update
functions, for remote maintenance. Settings can be saved to a
backup ﬁle, and easily restored.

Management Features• SYSLOG and SNMP
• Telnet and SSH• Ping Test and Traceroute Test
• Abnormal condition monitoring, such as
LAN port link-down and SIP server registration error• Administrator password• SNTP server• Security slot

Serial Pass-through Function

The Serial Pass-through function enables you to connect a serial
device to the VE-PG4 to extend the communication range
between the connected device and a controller PC. The virtual
serial port software for Windows® PC is supplied with the VE-PG4.

IP100HThe wireless access points can be shared for use withwireless devices, such as smartphones, tablets and PCs.

The VE-PG4 has a built-in IP100H IP communication terminal controller function that is capable of controlling up to 50 IP100H IP
Communication Terminals, and IP100FS Remote Communicators. The IP100H can send and receive voice and preprogrammed
text messages to the other units through the wireless LAN access points. The IP communication terminals are suitable for
intra-building communication, which will communicate anywhere your network has Wireless LAN access.
Wireless Communication System
By deploying access points along the existing IP network, theIP advanced radio system can communicate from anywhere inthe facility. The IP100H can access the nearest access point,and can roam between access points. No license fee isrequired, and there are no call charges.

Hands-free, Full-duplex Communication
With an optional earphone-microphone or headset*, the IP100H
user can simultaneously talk and receive like a phone call. Hands-free
operation allows your staff to carry out other tasks at the same time.

Individual, Group, All or Area Communication
Staff spread across multiple rooms can communicate seamlessly.
The IP communication terminal can receive Short Data Messages
with a vibration alert from a PC installed with a IP100FS.

Easy System to Set Up and Use
The VE-PG4 programs almost all terminal conﬁgurations overthe air. Individual PC programming through a cable connection
is not required. (Except initial setup).

* For full-duplex operation, use either an HM-153LS, HM-166LS,or HS-102 with
the OPC-2359, for full-duplex operation.

Radio System C

The VE-PG4 interconnects with two or moreradio systems, even when the systems areusing different bands and different categories.
All received audio is bridged to opposing
radio system, so a radio user can talk to all
connected radio users. The built-in digital
voice converter converts analog audio toIDAS™ compatible digital audio.
* Cross band/cross category operation may be prohibitedin some countries. Please check the legal requirements inyour country before installation.

LTE Transceiver Gateway
By installing a custom SIM card to the built-in
LTE module, the VE-PG4 can interconnect
IP501H/IP501M LTE transceivers with conventional
radio systems and IP100H IP communication
terminals. GPS position information fromthe LTE transceivers can be received andtransferred to a PC.
