Before You Begin
About Your AirWay System
Your AirWay wireless communication system is the world’s first
wireless networking product designed to provide both voice and
data networking capabilities to the h ome and small business.
No addtitional wires to run!
The AirWay system allows you to easily build a wireless network
that includes desktop and laptop computers, AirWay wireless
HandSets, and standard analog devices such as wired telephones
and fax machines, without the hassle and expense of running
additional phone lines or data cables throughout your building.
Because the networked devices are connected together wirelessly,
you can move them virtually anywhere within your premises,
anytime you wish, again without having to rewire your building.
Share all phone lines among all network devices!
Your AirWay system allows you to share all your phone lines
among all network devices, so you can pick up incoming calls or
place outgoing calls on any line from any phone in the network.
Because the AirWay system is so flexible, you can also easily
configure it to restrict a line to a particular extension or extensio ns.
Share computer data, peripherals, and Internet accounts!
Not only can you share files and peripherals such as printers and
modems among networked computers, but your AirWay system
also allows all computer users in the network to share a single
Internet account - all at the same time.
Advanced telephone features on a wireless HandSet!
Besides offering the convenience and portability of a wireless
telephone, your AirWay HandSet also provides such advanced
telephone features as multi-line call handling with Caller ID,
conference calling, extension-to-extension calling, call transfer , and
speed dialing using custom dialing directories.
Before You Begin • 11
Secure communications!
Your AirWay system uses Digital Spread Spectrum Technology to
help ensure robust, secure communications. The system provides
five levels of security, the highest available for 900 MHz products.
The first level of security involves peripheral registration and
authentication. All network devices must be registered with the
Controller using a unique Controller ID number and system
password. In addition, network devices must continually reauthenticate themselves to the Controller during communications.
This authentication process takes place automatically, with no
action required by the user.
Other security measures involve a unique, seven-layer call
processing protocol in which all calls are authorized, digitized,
scrambled, and dynamically rephased before transmission to help
ensure privacy from eavesdropping.
Additional Features
■ Supports multiple phone lines
• AirWa y 516 - up to five telephone lines (four for voice,
fax, etc., and one for Internet access via external modem)
• AirWa y 308 - up to three telephone lines (two for voice,
fax, etc., and one for Internet access via external modem)
■ Supports multiple network peripherals (16 for AirWay 516, 8
for AirWay 308)
■ Interoperates with existing inside wiring
■ Windows® compatibility allows computers to be easily con-
nected to network
■ Easy system administration from AirWay HandSets
■ Low Battery & Out of Range warnings on HandSet
