GAP Support
GAP(General Access Protocol) is an extension to the DECT standard (see Communication Standard) that provides compatibility between handsets and bases from different manufacturers. Thus, handsets supporting this standard can be easily connected to a base with GAP support, regardless of whether they are from the same bundle or not, whether they are made by the same manufacturer or by another — the main features of the phone, such as dialing and talking, will be available to the user anyway. At the same time, GAP support does not guarantee the possibility of using additional features (for example, managing an answering machine). Also, the GAP protocol allows you to connect several handsets to one base at the same time and vice versa, one handset to several bases.
Handsets supported (base)
The number of handsets that can be simultaneously connected to one radiotelephone base using GAP technology (see above).
If the base supports the connection of several handsets, you can actually organize a paired (triple, quad, etc.) telephone without purchasing additional bases (for which you would have to organize your own connection to the telephone network). And some models may have additional features available, such as handset-to-handset communication (see Features/Specs).
Handset search
A feature that allows you to
find a lost handset: when you press a special button, the base contacts the handset, and the latter starts to emit a well-audible sound signal (sometimes it is supplemented by light).
Wall mount
Possibility of mounting the base of the radiotelephone
on the wall. The advantage of this mount is that the phone does not require a horizontal surface for installation. This allows you to both save space on the desktop, shelf, etc., and install the phone where it would be difficult to provide a horizontal surface — for example, in the hallway.
