Wifi vs DECT

The quest for robust, efficient, cost-effective phone systems is relentless in today's rapidly evolving telecommunication landscape. Two technologies frequently found at the center of this discourse are WiFi Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT). While both systems are emblematic of significant strides in telecommunication, they present unique advantages and challenges. This white paper aims to dissect these technologies, laying bare the inherent challenges of WiFi VoIP, particularly in configuration and frequency interference, and juxtaposing these against the merits of DECT.
