Connectivity
9bits supports plain connectivity to the SMPP servers. If your preference is TLS encryption, please contact our support team. Plain connectivity was chosen over TLS because most client SDKs for SMPP do not natively support TLS integrations. A tunnel might be required to configure a secure connection between your client and our server.
