simultaneously (calls, eMail checks, connections to online directories and the Info
Centre).
The following handsets are recommended: Gigaset SL610H PRO, SL400H, S810H,
E49H.
Further information relating to the functions of the handsets in connection with
the Gigaset base stations can be found in the Accessories section (
£ page 123)
and on the Service page at www.gigaset.com/pro/gigasetn720
on the Internet.
– Subscribers can accept or initiate calls in all DECT cells with their handset
(Roaming), and can also switch between the DECT cells during a call (Handover).
A handover is only possible within the same cluster.

The functions of a handset on a Gigaset N720 DECT IP Multicell System are described
in this document using the example of the Gigaset SL610H PRO handset. Detailed
information about this handset and other approved Gigaset handsets can be found in
the relevant user guide. These are provided on the product CD or on the Internet at
www.gigaset.com
.
u PABX
You can connect your DECT telephone system to a PABX for VoIP, ISDN or analogue
telephony, e.g.,
– A Gigaset T500 PRO or T300 PRO
– A PABX from another manufacturer
– A PABX over the Internet (hosted PBX)
The PABX
– Establishes the connection to a public telephone network
– Enables central management of telephone connections, directories, network
mailboxes
u Forming clusters with the Gigaset N720 DECT IP Multicell System
You can divide DECT base stations that you have installed at your location into several
independent groups, i.e., clusters, and manage them using one Gigaset N720 DM PRO
DECT Manager (
£ page 70).
This means DECT domains that are a long way apart can be managed from a central
point. The DECT Manager is connected to the base stations and the PABX via the local
network and is therefore not dependent on DECT ranges. It guarantees access to the
centrally configured IP connections, directories etc. However, a handover of handsets
between clusters is not possible.
