4.8.1.5 INTERACTIONS
Interactions with other features
IBS DECT and IBS PWT (Personal Wireless Telecommunications) cannot run together on the
same system. The first IBS plugged determines the system type (DECT or PWT).
To switch from one system to another, unplug all IBSs, make a warm restart and plug in the
IBSs.
Interactions with other applications
IBSs are fully compatible with other wireless technologies such as VOWLAN.
Interactions with other software releases
OmniPCX Office release 5.1 requires 4 kinds of DECT initialization: Europe, Latin America,
United-States and China. See also:
4.8.1.6 LIMITS
Number of IBSs: 20 IBSs per cabinet is recommended, however, the number of IBSs is only
restricted by the available power.
DECT link limit: 3 links on an IBS with one UA access, 6 links on an IBS with 2 UA accesses.
DECT handset limit: up to 120 handsets on a system.
4.8.1.7 PERFORMANCE AND QUALITY
IBSs are downloaded during the system start phase or when hot plugged. A system with many
IBSs plugged might take longer to complete the start phase.
Downloading 1 IBS takes about 30 seconds. It takes more time when several IBSs are
plugged on the same UA resource.
The end of restart is only possible after all the devices have been taken into account.
If an IBS downloading fails, the IBS restarts with the previously installed software.
