8. DECT over IP
®
In order to achieve optimal network coverage, a DECT network with several DECT
base stations can be operated. A DECT network is comprised of DECT terminals
connected with the next respective base station (network cell). For users of a DECT
terminal, the handover from DECT base station to base station is completely trans-
parent. Even during a conversation, users are switched from one network cell to
the next without any interruption. Administration of DECT terminals is done cen-
trally via the Aastra 800 Configurator in the Telephony: Devices: DECT Phones
menu.

8.1 Properties
8.1.1 DECT Base Stations
DECT base stations can be connected to the Aastra 800 via network (TCP/IP).
These DECT base stations are available:
■ RFP 32: Access via shielded CAT5 Ethernet cable (STP cable, Shielded Twisted
Pair cable) with up to 100 metres of cable from the last Ethernet switch, inte-
grated antennas; 8 voice channels
■ RFP 34: like the RFP 32; mounted outside enclosed areas (IP55); external
antennas
■ RFP 42: Access via shielded CAT5 Ethernet cable (STP cable, Shielded Twisted
Pair cable); offers simultaneous function of a WLAN Access Point conforming
with the IEEE 802.11b/g protocol; external antennas; 8 voice channels
Note: When started, the operating software for the
DECT over IP base stations is transmitted via TFTP protocol
from the Aastra 800. The configuration for the start se-
quence is transmitted by the DHCP server of the Aastra 800
to a DECT over IP base station for the start sequence.
