Gigaset Repeater HX

Gigaset Repeater for extending the reception range of Gigaset DECT / GAP base stations and routers - e.g. with a FritzBox.

The additional implementation of the CAT-iq standard, as is the case with all Gigaset HX universal handsets, ensures compatibility with DECT/CAT-iq routers that support the new ETSI repeater standard. This means that the Gigaset Repeater HX is ready for future router generations.

Thanks to the new Early Encryption function, each call is encrypted before it is transmitted. This ensures a particularly high security standard for telephony at the workplace or at home. The re-keying function - i.e. changing the session key or the encryption key of an ongoing communication - also ensures additional data security. The Gigaset Repeater HX continuously modulates the security key even during a call.

The device also supports software updates via the air interface (SUOTA). Thanks to these technologies, the Gigaset Repeater HX also complies with the current standards of the European Telecommunications Institute.

Strengths

• Backward compatible with repeaters 1.0 and 2.0 (PN-CAP)
• CAT-iq 2.0 / 2.1.1
• HD Voice encryption, if supported by router
• 2 parallel HD voice calls
• DECT ULE
• SUOTA for repeaters and connected computers

DECT

• Interface: DECT, GAP, CAT-iq, CAT-iq 2
• Standards: Full compatibility with the Gigaset Repeater 2.0
• ETS 300 700 V2.1.1 Standard

Attributes

• Extends coverage for routers that support DECT and CAT-iq/DECT technology.
• SUOTA: Allows remote update of computer and repeater itself when the base or router is within range of the repeater
• Extends the coverage radius of Gigaset DECT / GAP base stations
• Allows automatic recording method
• DECT encryption
• Supports broadband calls or internal/external calls within repeater range
• Processes 2 active calls simultaneously or forwards information and settings from the base station/router to the phone in the reception area
• Supports handover in the reception area

Configuration

• Simple installation on the DECT base station
• Gigaset/Router DECT/CAT-iq
• Up to 6 repeaters per base station (depending on base station / DECT router)
• The repeater radio ranges must overlap
• The number of repeaters is independent of the number of handsets in operation

Compatibility

• Fully compatible with DECT routers with CAT-iq supporting the new standard
• Repeater (Broadband / Encryption / Handover)
• Compatible with all DECT routers (possibly less functionality (e.g. no encryption))
• All Gigaset phones support HX repeaters with full functionality

Full repeater compatibility is guaranteed for these base stations

• DX800A all-in-one, DX600A isdn, DL500A (supports up to 6 repeaters HX)
• Gigaset GO systems / IP systems (e.g. C430IP, C530IP, all GO-Box100) - supports up to 2 HX repeaters
• Gigaset analog base stations: C / SL class - supports up to 2 HX repeaters
• Backwards compatible with older generations of Gigaset products that support the repeater: with the features of the Repeater 1.0 (extended range)
