ECO DECT: Reducing the power consumption and transmission power of the base station
ECO DECT: Reducing the power consumption and
transmission power of the base station
The base station of your phone is an ECO DECT base station, this means that:
u
The base station and the charging cradle use less power because they are
equipped with a power-saving mains adaptor.
u
The reduction of the handset's transmission power is dependent on the hand-
set's proximity to the base station.
u
The base station can also be switched to Eco mode.
Eco mode reduces the transmission power and the power consumption of the
base station further.
Eco mode means:
80% reduction of the transmission power in standby operation and when mak-
ing calls. Eco mode is available when the handset(s) and the base station are
close together, e.g. when the phone is being used in an office.
The setting can be made on the handset.
