User Guide| FreeSpeak II for Eclipse HX
l Be aware that in order to achieve reliable DECT sync, your AES67 network has a lower
tolerance of jitter and delay than other AoIP networks.
l If the AES67 IP address on the transceiver changes, the device will reboot. This may take
up to 5 mins.

6.18 Beltpack support capacities for FS II IP Transceivers
FreeSpeak II for Eclipse HX supports up to a maximum 64 beltpacks per matrix.
Each FreeSpeak II IP transceiver supports 10 beltpacks within one coverage zone.
When designing the system, determine how many beltpack users will be in or passing through a
given coverage zone. If it will be 10 or fewer users, then place one transceiver in the center of that
area. If it is between 10 and 20 users, place two transceiver next to each other, both with a direct
connection to the FS II Matrix.
If an extra beltpack user goes into a coverage zone with only one transceiver, and that user is out
of range from another transceiver, it will lose connection with the system. This is because the
transceiver has a maximum capacity of up to 10 beltpacks at a time. If one of the existing users in
