Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications is a digital communication method by ETSI for cordless phones, mobile phones as well as for wireless data transfer. In Europe, DECT operates within a frequency range of 1,88 to 1,9 GHz. In the USA there is the adapted standard DECT@ISM working with 2,4 GHz.

The DECT standard fully specifies a means for a portable unit, such as a cordless telephone, to access a fixed telecoms network via radio. But, unlike the GSM standards, does not specify any internal aspects of the fixed network. Connectivity to the fixed network (that may be of many different kinds) is done through a base station or “Radio Fixed Part” to terminate the radio link, and a gateway to connect calls to the fixed network.

Unify offers a family of DECT Handsets that are ideal for employees who are constantly on the move, rarely staying in a single office long enough to warrant having a desktop phone. These Handsets enable locally mobile users to freely move about the office or campus with always-on access to a full range of HiPath and OpenScape calling features, excellent voice quality, low weight, and exceptional design.

The Unify DECT Phone family of Handsets operates with HiPath Cordlessinfrastructure to deliver industry leading cordless telephony solutions based on the DECT radio technology standard. With Cordless infrastructures from Unify and those DECT Handsets, employees can move freely across the office and yet still be reached by peers or customers at any time.
