8.3 Additional base stations
A number of base stations can be used to extend the coverage available to the handsets.
To make use of this effect, all the base stations must have a telephone connection.
Depending on your objectives, you can provide each base station with its own telephone
line or connect them all to the same line. A new number will be allocated to the handset
each time that it moves within range of another base station.
You should ensure that the coverages of the base stations overlap. Before adding a new
base station to your system, check the range of the handsets.
If a handset is registered with the base station and automatic base station selection is
switched on (further information in this chapter), the handset will be automatically
handed on to the next base station. Calls in progress cannot be passed from one base
station to another.
