Dect 6.0 Cordless Phones

DECT 6.0 cordless phones are the new gold standard in cordless phone technology. They utilize radio frequencies that have been set aside by the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) exclusively for voice communication devices. DECT 6.0 cordless phones provide crystal clear calls, extended range, secure calling, up to 24hrs of talk time per battery charge and they can be expanded to use many handsets through only one base station and one phone line.

This eliminates the considerable expense, hassle and inconvenience of setting up an appointment with a service technician, loosing a days pay when you have to take a day off from work, sit around the house and hope they show up when they say they will, or even at all, and have them drill holes through walls all over your house.

Gone are the days of straining to here your conversation over the static in the line. Imagine being able to actually sit IN the back yard, not just where you can see the back yard, while you talk on the phone and watch the kids play. Enjoy the convenience and harmony that having a phone in the kitchen, living room, master bedroom and all of the kids rooms will bring to your house.

If you own a business, DECT 6.0 cordless phones are perfect there also. There are no expensive phone lines to run or maintain in your business. You also get the freedom to put phones where you need them and there won't be any interference from machinery, microwaves, radios or wireless routers to ruin your calls. Dect 6.0 cordless phones don't skimp on features. Many models include features like a digital answering machine, phone book, conference calling, call transfer, call waiting caller ID an a speaker phone.

For many years, cordless phones have provided us with the convenience and freedom to go anywhere within the phones range to talk. But with some cordless phones this freedom comes with a price. With analog cordless phones anyone with a radio scanner or baby monitor, within a mile or more from your home, can eavesdrop on your conversations. All cordless phones use a radio signal to transmit your conversation from the base station to the handset, and a slightly different radio signal to transmit it from the handset back to the base station. Older cordless phones, and even some of the least expensive newer models, use an analog radio signal to transmit your conversations. Radio scanners, baby monitors, and other wireless communication devices also use analog radio signals to transmit and receive information. To make things worse, they use the same frequency range that some cordless phones use. This makes it easy for anyone with a baby monitor, radio scanner or even some walkie-talkies to tune into your phones frequency and listen in on your conversation.

Digital cordless phones eliminate most eavesdropping.

A digital phone converts your conversation into binary code, a series of zeroes and ones, before it is transmitted from the base to the handset or from the handset to the base. Then the base or handset converts it back into the original analog signal so you can hear it or it can be sent over your phone line. Analog radio receivers used in scanners and other wireless communication devices can not convert this binary code into usable sound. Newer cordless phones also transmit between the base and handset at a higher radio frequency then can be picked up by most scanners and baby monitors. The most advanced cordless phones, DECT 6.0 phones, transmit at a radio frequency that has been dedicated exclusively for voice communication applications by the FCC. There are other features that can make your cordless phone conversations even more secure. Digital Spread Spectrum Technology, or DSS, sometimes called Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum, or FHSS, uses frequency hopping to transmit your conversation between the base and handset. The phone rapidly switches from one frequency to the next several times per second making it almost impossible for others to follow your conversation. The pattern of which frequency the base and handset will switch to next is reset each time you place the handset back on the base.

So what security features should you look for in a new cordless phone? Depending on your security needs and your budget, look for cordless phones with these security features.

* 2.4GHz digital phones using DSS (Digital Spread Spectrum), or FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) technology.

* 5.8GHz digital phones using DSS (Digital Spread Spectrum), or FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) technology.

* DECT 6.0 phones. The FCC has set aside the 1.9GHz frequency range these Digitally Enhanced Cordless Telecommunication
devices use exclusively for voice communication applications.

I have to admit that I did not know a lot about what makes one cordless phone better or more secure then the next when I started researching this article. My dad was adding a line of cordless phones to his web site and asked for my help in picking the best phones available. I began checking manufactures web sites, consumer web sites and even the FCC's web site. What I came up with is a list of over 70 phones, from all of the top manufactures. Many of these phones give you all of the bells and whistles, but they all give what you really need, clear reception, great range and secure conversations that will only be heard by you and the people you call.
