16.4 Enabling DECT Eco
DECT Eco allows the DECT radio network to be switched off
during standby operation.
How Does DECT Eco Work?
When all registered cordless telephones are in standby oper-
ation, the DECT radio network of the FRITZ!Box and the tele-
phones is switched off.
When a call arrives or you press a key on a cordless tele-
phone, the DECT radio network is switched back on.
A telephone is on standby operation when you are not mak-
ing any calls, not using any other features, and not pressing
any buttons.
Requirements
• In the user interface (see page 28), the option “DECT Eco
supported” must be displayed for each cordless tele-
phone under “DECT / DECT Monitor”.
