Component Requirement
SMS encoding
Different types of SMS encodings exist to accommodate various
language needs in the world. XProtect Enterprise gives you the
following options:

7-bit

8-bit (default)

16-bit
7-bit encryption allows you to use up to 160 characters per SMS,
however it also limits the type of characters you can use.
8-bit encryption is the standard form of encryption with more special
characters allowed. It allows you to use up to 140 characters per
SMS.
16-bit encryption is necessary for non-Latin alphabeat languages.
Characters from, for example, Arabic, Chinese, Korean, Japanese
or Cyrillic alphabet languages require 16-bit SMS encoding. If you
use any of these languages in your organization, you must set your
XProtect Enterprise to use 16-bit encoding. 16-bit has a limit of 70
characters per SMS.
