DECT Infrastructure

The DECT infrastructure based on multizone technology connects multiple DECT base stations into a synchronized system that ensures uninterrupted roaming and handover. This keeps employees reachable at all times, supporting efficient communication even in demanding environments.

Typical applications of this technology include large office complexes, hospitals, hotels, retail spaces, warehouses, production sites, and expansive corporate grounds. Such environments benefit from stable, comprehensive coverage that ensures continuous availability and reliable communication.

Synchronization via Ethernet offers significant advantages over radio synchronization in terms of stability, flexibility, and efficiency. Ethernet-synchronized DECT base stations ensure seamless roaming and handover as well as greater ranges. Employees can move freely without call interruptions – even in critical areas like elevators or when transitioning between fire protection zones, where radio signals are often restricted. Additionally, Ethernet synchronization alleviates the radio band, minimizes interference, and facilitates flexible and efficient infrastructure expansion. This technology ensures operational safety even in demanding environments.

CNT's DECT installations stand for outstanding scalability and are suitable for both small branch locations and large companies with multiple sites and extensive corporate areas. The system can be expanded from small, reliable multizone installations to the largest networks supporting up to 20,000 users on a single platform. The ability to cascade DECT base stations ensures robust capacity in environments with particularly high densities of DECT devices. This flexibility ensures seamless communication, regardless of the size or requirements of the locations.

Cross-site roaming allows employees to flexibly log into local DECT radio networks at various company locations with their handsets. This maintains their usual availability, regardless of location. This feature is ideal for companies with multiple branches and supports employee mobility, ensuring smooth communication. The easy log-in at any appropriately equipped location provides flexibility and efficiency in daily work.

CNT offers a flexible choice from a variety of compatible DECT devices that provide extensive comfort features. These include integrated address books securely connected via LDAPS to protect access. Connections are encrypted using SRTP/TLS standards, ensuring secure voice transmission. This combination provides user-friendly and secure communication that meets the demands of modern corporate environments.

For companies with special requirements, CNT offers a selection of specialized DECT devices optimized for various applications. These include water- and dust-resistant models for demanding environments, antimicrobial devices for healthcare, and robust devices for industrial applications. Special models with emergency call buttons or enhanced safety features such as Man-Down alarms and precise location support employees in safety-critical areas. These devices ensure high flexibility and protection for companies needing reliable and secure communication solutions.

AML functions provide security-critical companies with a valuable extension of the DECT infrastructure and an optimal complement to the integration of alarm servers. With AML, alarms can be automatically triggered, messages quickly transmitted, and devices precisely located. This improves responsiveness in emergencies and ensures prioritized communication. In areas such as healthcare, logistics, and security services, AML significantly enhances operational safety and efficiency through targeted and coordinated alerts and notifications.

Precise premises coverage is crucial for establishing a powerful DECT infrastructure. As part of the DECT services, qualified professionals conduct an on-site analysis, with state-of-the-art measuring technology, to optimally position DECT base stations. This precise planning ensures seamless coverage and excellent voice quality – both in buildings and on premises. Maximum reliability and efficiency are achieved with minimal hardware investment. The DECT Service customizes your infrastructure to meet your requirements and provides a future-proof solution.

The DECT technology offers clear advantages over voice communication via WLAN. Thanks to dedicated frequencies, interference from other networks is avoided, ensuring consistent high voice quality. The frequency suitability allows for stable connections as well as seamless roaming and handover, even in environments with many radio sources. These features ensure that conversations can continue uninterrupted while users move through different areas. Additionally, DECT remains independent of the data load on WLAN, ensuring stable connections even under high network load.

DECT base stations offer greater range compared to WLAN base stations and, with optimal positioning, seamless coverage that ensures reliable voice communication within large building complexes and on company premises. Additionally, DECT devices have a significantly longer battery life compared to WLAN devices, allowing for smooth communication flow without frequent recharging.
