Alcatel-Lucent 8379 DECT IBS User Manual

Alcatel-Lucent
8379 DECT IBS

The Alcatel-Lucent 8379 DECT IBS forms a robust
infrastructure for Digital Enhanced Cordless
Telecommunications (DECT) both in buildings and
outdoors, to connect mobile workers everywhere.
They offer excellent voice quality in even the most
challenging environments.

The base stations pair with Alcatel-Lucent DECT
handsets to deliver expert communication features
(such as, dial-by-name and multi-line management)
from the Alcatel-Lucent Communication Servers.

Alcatel-Lucent 8379 DECT IBS indoor

The resulting solution offers cost-effective operations
for all sizes of enterprise businesses. Excellent voice
quality meets operational simplicity in SMB and campus
environments as well as, industrial environments. The
base stations only require cost-effective twisted pair
digital connectivity, and are centrally managed by the
communication servers.

Features Benets

Built-in centralized management with Alcatel-Lucent
Communication Servers

Support of AGAP and GAP protocols Excellent communications with AGAP including twinset

Suitable for indoor and outdoor environments Excellent voice quality everywhere

Digital connectivity over twisted pair Cost-effective technology for long buildings or buildings

Handover and roaming with former Alcatel-Lucent 4070
DECT IBS base stations and Alcatel-Lucent 8378 DECT IP-xBS

Cost-effective operations

with desktop phone, multi-line management, dial-by-name

with scarce IP connectivity and power outlets

Investments on network, cabling and base stations are
preserved
