T7406 Installation Guide
RF LANs (Radio Frequency Local Area Networks)
RF LANs are primarily installed in large chain businesses such as retail
and grocery where the RF LAN is used for inventory equipment.
With the correct selection of the T7406 operating band, the RF LAN
operating at 900 MHz does not pose an operating issue for T7406 nor
does the T7406 pose issues for the RF LAN with respect to data
transmission capabilities. However, there may be instances where the
T7406 user may hear an occasional slight audio click when operating in
a RF LAN environment. This should not inhibit the user's ability to
hold a normal two-way conversation using the T7406.
Telephone-to-Base Range
The T7406 cordless telephone utilizes an extremely efficient radio
design to deliver the maximum possible range while complying with
the governing rules of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
and Industry Canada. The effective operating range within a site will
largely depend on the environmental characteristics mentioned
previously, such as building construction and internal layout of the site.
Typically, the T7406 will provide an effective operating range of 95
meters (300 feet).
If the T7406 is not meeting this operating range, the following are some
steps that can be taken to assist with the troubleshooting:
Check surroundings for any other product that my be causing
interference.
Check environment for obstructions that may be limiting the range.
Change the orientation of the base station antenna.
Move the base station to another location.
Select the alternate operating band of the T7406.
It is important to keep in mind that, based on environmental
characteristics, the T7406 may not be the optimum solution for all
users. If the desired level of mobility performance is not met, contact
your authorized Nortel Networks distributor to discuss alternatives.
