Your ZyXEL Device has a built in Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) base station. DECT is an ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute) standard for digital cordless phones which specifies how they transmit, receive and process data and voice communication. You can register any DECT GAP phone with the ZyXEL Device.
