Registering AT&T Dect 6.0 base station with Panasonic Dect 6.0 handset?
As these DECT 6.0 systems are supposed to be compatible, does anyone
know if it is possible to register an AT&T Dect 6.0 base station with Panasonic Dect 6.0 handset please? If possible without jerry-rigging two wires between the two contacts on the base station and the two contacts on the handset for the registration process? |

No. In order to support interoperability among a mix of vendors, the handset must support GAP (Generic Access Profile): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generic_access_profile http://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/300400_300499/300444/02.01.01_60/en_300444v020101p.pdf This is widely supported in Europe, but not in the US. However, even if GAP were supported, there is not test or certification requirement for cross vendor interoperability. The GAP spec also does not cover optional features, such as answering machines. If the base has an answering machine, it's unlikely that another vendors handset can program the answering machine as the menus are in the handset, not the base. -- Jeff Liebermann 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 |

OK thanks for that.I just thought that as both SEEM to use the same freqs & (bare) specs and both support interop with additional handsets, they might cross-support. Frequencies: 1880 - 1900 MHz in Europe 1900 - 1920 MHz in China 1893 - 1906 MHz in Japan 1910 - 1930 MHz in Latin America 1920 - 1930 MHz in US and Canada This bit of the referenced page certainly is confusing: "Most consumer- level DECT phones and base stations support the GAP profile, even those that do not publicize http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DECT_6.0#DECT_6.0 DECT 6.0 products do not support "GAP", therefore phones of differing brands are not guaranteed to work together. E.g. A GE 28105EE1 DECT 6.0 headset will not receive calls if registered to a Uniden base unit. Actually, that's not quite true. GAP is not required for DECT 6.0 (which is not a standard but rather a marketing term). However some vendors advertise GAP compatibility. For example: https://www.google.com/search?q=dect+6.0+GAP&tbm=shop Whether it actually works between different vendors is doubtful. -- Jeff Liebermann 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 |
