titleIntroductionValid for N610 but not supported by N670 / N870 / N870E. Software 2.53 or higher is needed.

If in a business environment more DECT coverage is needed, the best solution is to create an (Mini) multicell solution. A multicell offers more reliability, stability and parallel calls then a repeater solution.

If in some cases, a repeater solution is enough, the N610 supports unencrypted repeaters.

Repeater functionality:The N610 supports

  • Up to 6 repeaters in star arrangement
  • Connection is unencrypted
  • 2 narrowband calls in extended DECT range
  • Activation via provisioning

Planned is:

  • Web-interface setting
  • encrypted connection

N670 and N870 does do not support repeaters, for the N670/N870 (mini) multi-cell is available.

titleAuto-provisioning

Following provisioning file does apply RPN=1 to all base stations of a system. In singlecell system, to the one and only local base.

(warning) DO NOT apply following provisioning file to any N670/N870/N870E.

Info
titleHow to use provisioning file to enable transparent repeater operation:
  • Provisioning is not atomic!
  • Wildcard-provisioning even more is not atomic!
  • Some settings depend on the other!

So the fully safe procedure to apply this provisioning file is to apply the provisioning twice:

  1. It is recommended to save a backup before applying the following provisioning step.
  2. Upload this provisioning file via web-ui.
  3. "Start auto configuration", should be successful, confirm by OK!
  4. Repeat step 3 - "Start auto configuration", should be successful, confirm by OK!
  5. Reboot the device.

titleHow to check in Web-UI and with handset MMI?

DECT Settings → DECT Encryption, early Encryption and re-keying is disabled to support transparent repeater operation.

Telephony → Audio → Wideband Support must stay deactivated to support transparent repeater operation:

With handset you could check the RPN in the RFP-Scan procedure

Image Added


If repeater support is deactivated RPN ends with '0' or '8'.

If repeater support is activated RPN ends with '1' or '9'.

Repeater might show up in RFP-scanning with RPN ending with '2..7' or 'a..f'

Using first manual generated N610 the repeater was not working.

The issue was caused due to wrong PARI.

Image Removed

Check if your PARI starts with "0" like above. With the sample, the PARI started with "1".

The PARI needs to be changed to solve the problem.
