Alvaro,

you probably need a GSM Gateway. We've been using the one from Topex
(http://www.topex.ro) and it works quite well (at least here in Italy).
They have models with a single GSM card on board and with two cards.

The gateway gets tied either to a Zap (single SIM) or ISDN (double SIM)
channel and then you tell to your Asterisk to route the calls to mobile
phone through either the ZAP or ISDN channel.

Hote this helps.
