Mobile Connect specifications<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Mobile Connect created a portfolio of GSMA technical specifications. These specifications have now been consolidated through GSMA Open Gateway, providing universal access to operator networks via a framework of common network APIs. The GSMA Open Gateway APIs are defined by the CAMARA Project.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
