IP DECT Base Stations |
When used with IP Office, the IP DECT supports up to 32 base stations. One base station is designated during installation as the Avaya DECT Mobility Manager (ADMM) and is used to configure and control the IP DECT system. Note that a base station is also called a Radio Fixed Part or RFP.
The following types of base station are supported for use with IP Office:
| • | RFP31: Indoor Base Station No longer available and not supported in North America. This base station is for indoor use only. It has integral aerials and can be powered by either a mains adapter or by 802.3af Power over Ethernet supply. |
| • | RFP32: Indoor Base Station This base station is for indoor use only. It has integral aerials and can be powered by either a mains adapter or by 802.3af Power over Ethernet supply. For Australia and New Zealand the mains adaptor is not currently supported. |
| • | RFP33: Outdoor Base Station No longer available and not supported in North America. This base station can be used outdoors or indoors. The outdoor IP Base Station can only be powered by 802.3af Power over Ethernet. |
| • | RFP34: Outdoor Base Station This base station can be used outdoors or indoors. The outdoor IP Base Station can only be powered by 802.3af Power over Ethernet. |

Each base station can handle simultaneous calls for up to 8 DECT phones at any time. Additional phones will connect to the next nearest base station with sufficient signal strength if it has available capacity.
Groups of IP Base Station are called clusters. Within a Cluster, IP Base Stations are synchronized to enable a seamless hand over when a user crosses from one IP Base Station’s zone of coverage to another. For synchronization, it is not necessary for an IP Base Station to communicate directly with all other IP Base Stations in the system. Each IP Base Station only needs to be able to communicate with the next IP Base Station in the chain. It is preferable for an IP Base Station to see more than one IP Base Station to guarantee synchronization in the event that one of the IP Base Stations fails.
Power over Ethernet Support
All the base stations can be used with Power over Ethernet (PoE). They are classified as Class 0 devices. Note that the Avaya 1151 MidSpan Power Unit should not be used to provide power.
Aerials
By default all the base stations are supplied with omni-directional aerials. For the RFP31 and RFP32 base stations the aerials are integral and cannot be changed. For the RFP33 and RF34, the aerials are connected by TNC connectors and can be replaced with beam or dipole aerials. The use of beam aerials is not supported in North America. The use of third-party aerials is not supported by Avaya.
RFP31
This base station is for indoor use only. It has integral omni-directional aerials and can be powered by either a mains adapter or by 802.3af Power over Ethernet supply. The RFP31 has a single multi-colour LED that shows the different states during startup and operation.
This type of base station is no longer available from Avaya and is not supported in North America.
RFP32
This base station is for indoor use only. It has integral omni-directional aerials and can be powered by either a mains adapter or by 802.3af Power over Ethernet supply. The RFP32 has 3 separate LEDs in red, orange and green showing the different states during startup and operation.
RFP33
This base station can be used indoors and outdoors. It has two external omni-directional aerials. The base station can only be powered using an 802.3af Power over Ethernet supply. Connection requires the base station to be opened and the LAN cable to be connected to an internal IDC punch down connector block.
This type of base station is no longer available from Avaya and is not supported in North America.
RFP34
This base station can be used indoors and outdoors. It has two external omni-directional aerials. The base station can only be powered using an 802.3af Power over Ethernet supply. Connection requires the base station to be opened and the LAN cable to be connected to an internal RJ45 or IDC punch down connector block.
