DECT is a digital standard, quite distantly comparable to GSM. There are multiple channels (I believe the standard allows for 12 channels, but the last time I actually worked on DECT is ages ago). A siemens S450IP can have up two 6 handsets with 2 'external' (SIP or POTS) phonecalls concurently. You cannot decline a phonecall, but you can ignore it. > > The thing I like about the wired SIP phones is that they handle the echo > issue fairly well.
