- With this a "cordless private
branch exchange ”can be created. A cordless PBX
would be especially useful and save costs in a company
with a number of mobile employees such as those in a
large warehouse.
- Can also create a Wireless Local Loop
(WLL). Users in a neighborhood typically served by a
telephone company wired local loop can be connected
instead by a cordless phone that exchanges signals with
a neighborhood antenna.
- Cordless Terminal Mobility. The arrangement
used by businesses for a cordless PBX can also be used
by a service that provided cordless phone numbers for
individual subscribers. In general, the mobility would
be less than that available for GSM users.
- Home cordless phones. A homeowner
could install a single-cell antenna within the home
and use it for a number of cordless phones throughout
the home and garden.
- GSM/DECT internetworking. Part of
the DECT standard describes how it can interact with
the GSM standard so that users can be free to move with
a telephone from the outdoors (and GSM signals) into
an indoor environment (and a DECT system). It's expected
that many GSM service providers may want to extend their
service to support DECT signals inside buildings. A
dual-mode phone would automatically search first for
a DECT connection, then for a GSM connection if DECT
is not available.
