DECT Information
DECT products should never be used outside the region in which they were originally purchased
and intended to be used.
The enclosed DECT wireless product uses restricted wireless radio frequencies which vary by
country. Use of this DECT product in unauthorized countries is a violation of law, may disrupt
telecommunications networks and devices, and can subject you to fines and penalties by
regulatory agencies.
DECT Enhanced Security
Plantronics is a member of the DECT Forum and has fully adopted their recommendations for
enhancements to security within all DECT products.
Plantronics DECT-based products now fully incorporate the latest recommendations on Enhanced
Security from the DECT Forum and ETSI. These improvements cover registration, authentication,
authorization and encryption procedures. Plantronics DECT products are now secure against all
the known vulnerabilities that were highlighted by the public announcements of the Chaos
Council in 2009.
Plantronics DECT products have been tested against and passed the DECT Forum security
certification requirements and consequently have been granted 'DECT Forum security' logo
certification.
Plantronics products using the new enhanced version of DECT that includes these security
improvements are marked on the base with the DECT Forum security logo.
