Business Cordless Telephony
Chapter 1 Business Cordless Telephony
Digital Cordless Telephone system
The DCT1800-S system is a Digital Cordless Telephone system, providing
business cordless telephony for your organisation. The DCT1800-S system
makes it possible to use cordless phones in the area covered by the system. The
user of a cordless phone can make and receive telephone calls anywhere in the
covered area. The cordless phone user can walk within the covered area while
continuing the call, with the same speech quality.
Access to the system is protected. Only cordless phones subscribed to the
system can make and receive calls. During a call nobody can eavesdrop on the
conversation.
The Digital Cordless Telephone system DCT1800-S can be connected to any
PABX (Private Automatic Branch Exchange) with analogue lines. All functions
of the PABX can be used with the cordless phones as with the fixed phones.
Once installed, the DCT1800-S system requires no user-actions unless the
system is malfunctioning. Further, it may be desired to replace, add or remove
cordless phones with the CSM software. This user’s guide gives you all
information required to perform these user tasks.
Based on international DECT-GAP standards
The DCT1800-S system is based on the international DECT standard for digital
cordless telephony. DECT stands for Digital Enhanced Cordless
Telecommunications.
The DCT1800-S system is Generic Access Profile (GAP) compliant. GAP is
another standard in DECT. Therefore the DCT1800-S system can be combined
with all DECT-GAP compliant business cordless phones.
Expanding the system
The DCT1800-S cordless system can be expanded with extra cordless phones
and extra base stations for a larger using area:
• Up to maximally 40 cordless phones can be used.
• Up to maximally 8 base stations can be used.
Your supplier will be happy to provide you with more information on the
possibilities to expand your cordless system.
