Hi Aleksander,

this documentation seems to refer to PLS8-E with firmware 01.x and
USB ID 1e2d:0060 where the serial ports were handled by the option
driver and which had one QMI-based network interface. With PLS8-E
firmware 02.x and 03.x Gemalto switched them to USB ID 1e2d:0061 and
now uses CDC ACM for the serial ports and provides two CDC ECM-based
network interfaces.

As can be seen from
https://developer.gemalto.com/threads/module-pls8-x-unable-switch-modem-mode-atsqport
firmware 02.x and 03.x now also provide a possibility to select several
port mappings ("service sets") for the serial ports.

One further difference I noticed is that USSD responses for AT+CSCS="GSM"
contain a non-standard \xx escaping for non-printable characters (unless
I missed some recent TS 27.007 changes).
