• Each update session takes approximately 3 hours, and the base station will complete a
session before starting a new one.
• A base station in a single cell system can update 10 handsets in a single session
(because there are 10 available RF channels), so Handsets 1 through 10 are updated

• In a multi-cell system, each base station can update 8 handsets in a session, but all
base stations can perform update sessions at the same time. If you distribute the
