DECT Telephone Base Stations and Repeaters
A telephone base station is the radio unit that links cordless DECT handsets to your business phone system. It connects to the system by cable, through a digital port or over the IP network, and each base station covers part of the building. You add base stations to cover a larger site or carry more calls at the same time.
This range covers new and refurbished DECT base stations and repeaters from Avaya, Panasonic, Siemens, Mitel, NEC, Aastra, Nortel and LG. Models include the Avaya D100 and RFP32, the Siemens BS4 and BS5, the NEC AP300 and the Panasonic KX-A405 repeater. They suit engineers who extend coverage or replace a failed unit on an existing system. More parts are in phone accessories.

How to choose a base station
Match the system's DECT platform
A base station only works with the DECT platform it was made for. For example, the Avaya D100 is a SIP DECT base station for Avaya IP Office, and the Avaya RFP32 runs on Avaya IP DECT systems. Check the part number on your existing units.
Digital or IP connection
Digital base stations, such as the Siemens BS4 and Panasonic KX-TDA0141, connect to a cordless interface card in the system. IP base stations connect to your network, register to the system or a DECT manager, and often take power over PoE.
Plan coverage and call capacity
Each base station carries a set number of calls at once and covers a limited area. Handsets hand over between base stations only when they are set up as one system. If you are unsure how many you need, send your system model through a quote request.
Use repeaters where cables cannot reach
A DECT repeater, such as the Panasonic KX-A405 or Snom M3 repeater, extends radio range without a system or network cable. It needs mains power and a signal from a base station, and it does not add call capacity.
Power and outdoor use
IP base stations take power from a PoE switch or a separate power supply. For yards, car parks or warehouses, choose an outdoor base station in a weatherproof housing, such as the Avaya outdoor base station.

Questions
What does a telephone base station do?
A telephone base station links cordless DECT handsets to your phone system by radio. Handsets register to the system through it, and calls pass between base stations as people move around a site, provided the base stations are set up to work together. Each base station is made for one system platform.
Do you sell Avaya IP DECT base stations?
Yes. The range includes the Avaya D100 SIP DECT base station for IP Office, the Avaya RFP32 and the Avaya DECT IP RBS V2, alongside digital Avaya DECT base stations. Match the model and software release to your system before you order.
Can I use a home phone base station with my business phone system?
Only as a single analogue extension. A home DECT base station can plug into an analogue extension port, but all its handsets then share that one extension. For handsets that each work as their own extension, you need base stations made for your system's DECT platform.
Do I need another base station or a repeater?
Add a base station if you need more calls at the same time, or coverage in an area you can run a cable to. Add a repeater if you only need to extend range where no cable can run. A repeater shares the calls of the base station it links to.
