Expanding the DECT network ECO DECT ECO DECT includes settings for the range and radiation on the DECT wireless network. On delivery, the device is configured to guarantee an optimal connection between the handset and the base station with as little radiation as possible. In idle status, the handset does not transmit (it is radiation-free).
Black lists The radiation-free function is deactivated by default. To be able to use the radiation-free function, all registered handsets must support this feature. Regardless of the device on which the function is activated, it is always acti- vated for all handsets. If a handset is registered that does not support this feature, radiation-free is automat- ically deactivated.

Save Setting STUN server Once you have downloaded the profile of your VoIP provider from the Gigaset configuration server, the settings for STUN are already initialised (STUN = Session Traversal Utilities for NAT). The STUN server you set here is used as an alternative or as a fallback for the system.
Audio Audio Voice quality The voice quality of VoIP calls is mainly dependent on the codec used for the transmission and the available bandwidth of the network connection. A "better" codec (better voice quality) requires more data to be transferred, i.e. it requires a network connection with a larger band- width.

Network VLAN VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) divide a physical network into multiple virtual networks. Enable VLAN if your phone is on a local network divided into virtual subnets. In a "tagged" VLAN, data packets are assigned to individual subnets with tags that consist of, among other things, a VLAN identifier and the VLAN priority.
Page 50
Network Quality of Service (QoS) The sound quality depends on the priority of the voice data on the network. The VoIP data packets are prioritised using the QoS protocol DiffServ (Differentiated Services). DiffServ defines a number of classes for the quality of service and, within these classes, various priority levels for which specific prioritisation procedures are defined.
