What Is a Wireless Phone?
A wireless phone has no handset cord and no telephone line cord, so it is portable. This
portability lets you move around freely, without giving up the features of a wired phone.
With a wireless phone, you can make and receive calls even when you are away from your
desk, thus remaining accessible and responsive to your customers and coworkers as you
move around your work area. Time-sensitive work issues will not need to wait until you are
back at your desk, and you can reduce the number of (sometimes costly) phone calls you
must return.

TransTalk 9000 System
Your wireless phone's handset is linked with your communications system through a match-
ing radio module,
not
through the battery charger where the handset sits for charging. Each
handset can be used only with the radio module packaged with the handset. The handset and
the radio module each have the same unique security code and serial number (on the bottom
of the radio module and inside the battery compartment of the handset) to identify the
matching pair. And there is built-in and secure automatic registration between the handset
and radio module, so that your system is ready to use after powering up.
Your TransTalk system may have from 1 to 18 wireless phones. In order to use multiple
wireless phones within the same zone (area of coverage), you also need a carrier (also
known as a backplane). A carrier holds up to six radio modules, and synchronizes radio
signals for proper operation of multiple phones, ensuring consistent voice quality and
range. Up to three carriers can be linked to support up to 18 wireless phones in a single
zone; linked carriers are automatically synchronized with each other.
