For users needing multiple handsets, the DECT525 supports up to six handsets connected to a single base station. This feature is particularly beneficial for larger households or office environments where multiple users need to make and receive calls seamlessly.

Safety features include a secure connection, protecting against eavesdropping. The use of DECT security ensures that voice data is encrypted, giving users peace of mind regarding their privacy.
