IP DECT Gateway Information
With IP Office R8, Avaya introduces a number of updates for the IP Office DECT R4 solution. The new IP DECT
Gateway allows connecting digital base stations to the DECT R4 solution with the intention to leverage existing
4-wire cabling, for example when replacing an older PBX with IP Office.
In addition, Avaya is introducing new versions of the IP Base Stations (IPBS) and the Avaya Inbuilding Wireless
Server (AIWS).
The new Avaya IP DECT Gateway solution consists of new digital DECT base stations connected to an Avaya IP
DECT Gateway.
The solution extends the existing Avaya DECT R4 solution by making use of 4-wire UPN-cables. The Avaya IP
DECT Gateway will enable digital DECT base stations to act as additional radios that belong to an Avaya DECT
R4 system. The IP DECT Gateway will be connected to the LAN and communicate to the IP Office, AIWS,
Chargers and any IPBS via IP.
Standalone Avaya IP DECT Gateway installations and mixed installations with DECT R4 IP base stations are
possible.
DECT R4 IP Base Stations and Digital Base Stations use the same housing and accordingly the same mounting
options can be used.
Major highlights of the Avaya IP DECT Gateway solution include:
Up to 16 digital base stations can be connected to an Avaya IP DECT Gateway appliance
·
Up to two IP DECT Gateways are supported per IP Office; stackable solution (multiple IP DECT GW
