Cordless Phones

The inception of cordless technology into the world of telephones has allowed people more freedom than every before. Modern cordless phones allow people to talk with friends and family while roaming up to 300 feet away from their house and still maintaining crystal-clear reception.

A cordless phone uses a wireless handset to communicate with a base station connected to a fixed telephone via radio waves. The cordless handset is powered by a battery, which is perpetually recharged at the base station when the phone is not in use. These batteries are very powerful and usually won't run out.

Most cordless phones operate in frequencies of 900MHz to 5.8 GHz. Many companies advertise higher call quality, range, and security with each higher step up in frequency. Today's cordless phones usually come with built-in caller ID, contact storage, speakerphone, and programmable rings. Learn more about cordless phones by checking out these articles.
