Uniden DCT5280 manual E L C O M E / F E At U R E S

The DCT5280 series features include AutoTalk™ and AutoStandby™. AutoTalk allows you to answer a call by just removing the handset from the cradle so you don’t have to waste time pushing buttons. AutoStandby allows you to hang up by simply returning the handset to the cradle.

To protect you against mis-billed calls, which might result from your phone being activated by other equipment, the DCT5280 series has Random Code™ digital security, which automatically selects one of over approx. 130,000 digital security codes for the handset and base.

Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) technology improves calling range and clarity, and eliminates cross talk. Because it rapidly changes transmission frequencies within the 2.4GHz bandwidth, this cordless phone helps reduce the possibility of eavesdropping.

DirectLink™ Mode is used when you have 2 or more handsets. You can use your handsets as transceivers.
