RF LANs (Radio Frequency Local Area Networks)
RF LANs are primarily installed in large chain businesses such as retail and grocery where the RF LAN is used for inventory equipment.
With the correct selection of the T7406 operating band, the RF LAN operating at 900 MHz does not pose an operating issue for T7406 nor does the T7406 pose issues for the RF LAN with respect to data transmission capabilities. However, there may be instances where the T7406 user may hear an occasional slight audio click when operating in a RF LAN environment. This should not inhibit the user's ability to hold a normal
Telephone-to-Base Range
The T7406 cordless telephone utilizes an extremely efficient radio design to deliver the maximum possible range while complying with the governing rules of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry Canada. The effective operating range within a site will largely depend on the environmental characteristics mentioned previously, such as building construction and internal layout of the site. Typically, the T7406 will provide an effective operating range of 95 meters (300 feet).
If the T7406 is not meeting this operating range, the following are some steps that can be taken to assist with the troubleshooting:
•Check surroundings for any other product that my be causing interference.
•Check environment for obstructions that may be limiting the range.
•Change the orientation of the base station antenna.
•Move the base station to another location.
•Select the alternate operating band of the T7406.
It is important to keep in mind that, based on environmental characteristics, the T7406 may not be the optimum solution for all users. If the desired level of mobility performance is not met, contact your authorized Nortel Networks distributor to discuss alternatives.
