About the repeater

You can use a repeater to extend the operating range for the AT&T SB67118 DECT 6.0 4-line corded/cordless telephone system to cover areas where the signal is very weak or not available. The repeater extends the range in all directions, even going around certain barriers.

The telephone base, cordless handsets and repeaters are linked through wireless connections. When configured properly, you should not notice any reception problems as you move around within the covered area.

Up to six repeaters can be registered to the telephone base. There can be two repeaters in series going between the base and handsets. The first repeater can be up to 950 feet away from the base. The second repeater can be up to 950 feet away from the first repeater. Handsets work up to 950 feet from the base or any repeater, so with two repeaters in series, handsets work up to 2,850 feet away from the base. The figure below shows an example of how you might choose to setup your system.
