DECT

DECT (Digitally Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications) is a standard developed by ETSI for wireless telephones and it has a dedicated frequency range. The system consists of single-cell wireless phones connected through base stations to a DECT server, usually interfaced to a PBX and/ or external telephone lines.

The DECT platform can also serve as a mobile platform for receiving and distributing alarms and messages. The frequency range is reserved exclusively for voice communication applications and therefore is less likely to experience interference from other wireless devices such as baby monitors and wireless networks. New generation DECT (also known as CAT-iq) also supports wideband audio.
