Please note:
Some 2.4GHz cordless phones will cause interference or problems with wireless data networks. If cordless phones are needed, DoIT Network Services recommends using 900 Mhz, 2.4GHz with FHSS (Frequency-Hopping Spread Spectrum) technology, 5.8 GHz with FHSS or DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications). Some phones marketed as 5.8 GHz are also transmitting a 2.4 GHz signal. If you are purchasing cordless phones, be sure to check the technical specifications. |
