So
how does Integral DECT work?
It's very similar to a small-scale cellular phone network
for your offices. A series of base stations are connected
to the office PBX and placed at strategic points to provide
wireless coverage where it's required. When within range of
a base station the users' DECT handsets are able to make and
receive calls as if they were ordinary phone extensions. DECT
base stations or systems will support simultaneous calls,
and it is possible to move from coverage area to coverage
area seamlessly, due to its 'roaming' functionality. In order
to receive wide-area coverage over large sites, all that is
needed are more base stations.
Thanks to advanced digital techniques used in making and
receiving calls, sound and speech quality are excellent. Multiple
systems can also exist in the same location and are immune
to cross talk or interference. DECT acts just as a desktop
phone when the user is away from their desk and reduces the
likelihood of missing that vital call. It can bring low-cost
mobility around the workplace for a variety of job functions
- sales, support, administration or finance - and improves
the interface to external callers. Callers connect more often
with the people they need to talk to, and without the interference
problems associated with mobile phones. A further argument
is that DECT helps to centralise call costs, as all calls
made are logged through the main company switchboard, and
it negates the need to have mobile phones or pagers operating
in the office.
