GSM (2G3G) Communications
All Videofied 630-series control panels come standard with an
integrated GSM modem capable of accepting a standard sized
GSM M2M SIM card and communicating via AT&T and T-Mobile
carriers.
There are several SIM providers which Videofied has partnered
with and each partner has a unique APN (Access Point Name)
code. In certain cases, it may also be necessary to input a
user name and password. The APN code (and user name and
password, if required) is necessary to authenticate the SIM card
with the associated cellular network during signal transmission.

Ensure that the SIM card is inserted following the proper orientation based on the control panel
