The SMPP 3.4 spec is clear about the use of two connections, but offers
another type of bind operation, BIND_TRANSCEIVER. This type of bind
(over a single TCP connection) may both receive Mobile Originated and
Delivery Report messages, and send Mobile Terminated messages.

Having two binds (BIND_TRANSMITTER + BIND_RECEIVER) over a single TCP
connection is not supported by most SMPP clients and servers.
