Alcatel-Lucent 8379 DECT IBS

Introduction

The Alcatel-Lucent 8379 DECT IBS is a proven DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications) infrastructure designed for professional mobile communications, both indoors and outdoors. It ensures excellent communication quality even in complex environments. With the IBS terminals, ALE DECT cordless phones benefit from professional communication services like name dialing and multi-line communications. The 8379 IBS terminals offer an economical and manageable solution for businesses of all sizes, providing high-quality communication for SMEs, campuses, and industrial or explosion-prone environments. They require a simple digital twisted-pair connection and centralized management via communication servers.
