1. DECT R4
Avaya DECT R4 is a DECT system where multiple base stations are connected using an IP LAN. For IP Office, DECT R4 is
supported with IP Office Release 5+. This installation manual covers the installation of DECT R4 systems using the
firmware supported by IP Office Release 8.0.
This manual is just a basic manual covering the most common install scenarios for DECT R4 with an IP Office system. For
more advanced options and complex install scenarios refer to the full set of Avaya DECT R4 manual.
· For IP Office Release 6.0 and higher, the Compact Base Station is supported. Compact Base Stations can be
used in place of standard base stations. This type of base station only supports 4 simultaneous calls. Up to 5
Compact Base Station units can be included in a system. If used as the master base station, the whole system
is limited to 5 base stations.
· Phones 15
Up to 120 DECT phones are supported. The Avaya 3700 Series phones supported are the 3720, 3725, 3740 and
3749. Other DECT phones, including the 3701 and 3711, are supported but only for basic telephony and only using
the DECT GAP and DECT CAP standards.
· Chargers 19
A number of different types of charger exist for 3700 Series phones. Note that chargers for 3720/3725 phones are
not necessarily useable with 3740/3749 phones. Some of the chargers are advanced chargers which allow the
phone docked with the charger to be accessed using the Device Manager application (browser access via the AIWS
unit and charger LAN port or WinPDM application via the USB port).
· IP Office
DECT R4 is supported on IP Office systems running IP Office 5.0+ software. This manual is for systems running IP
Office Release 7.0 or higher in IP Office standard mode.
· Licenses
Each phone subscribed via the DECT R4 systems requires an Avaya IP Endpoint license in the IP Office
configuration.
· Configuration Tools
The tools and applications for DECT R4 are included as part of the IP Office Manager application installation. This
includes the appropriate firmware for operation with the IP Office system.
· IP DECT Gateway
This device allows base stations using traditional 4-way telephony cabling to be connected to the DECT R4 system.
Each IP DECT Gateway can support up to 16 digital base stations and provides power to those base stations. The IP
DECT Gateway connects to the IP Office via the LAN.
· A IP DECT Gateway can be configured as the master base station for the whole system.
· AIWS2
The AIWS has been replaced by the AIWS2. The AIWS2 is easier to install and supports a wider range of additional
functions for the DECT system.
· IP Office Provisioning
The DECT master base station can be installed in 'provisioning' mode. In this mode, once the base station is
operational and connected to the IP Office, the bulk of configuration is done by the IP Office.
· The IP Office is able to provide key settings to the base station such as the system SARI code and the
authentication code for phone subscription.
· User configuration and subscription control is done through the IP Office. Previously user configuration and
subscription was done in parallel through both the IP Office and base station.
· When using provisioning mode, 3700 Series handset are provided with enhanced menus and idle status display
driven by the IP Office. This does not include 3701, 3711 and other GAP compatible phones subscribed to the
system.
· Provisioning installation in pre-configured or auto-create modes should be used for all installations with
just 3720, 3725, 3740 and 3749 phones.
· Provisioning installation in pre-configured mode should be used for all installations with a mix of 3720,
3725, 3740, 3749 phones and other DECT phones.
· Provisioning installation should not be used for installations with no 3720, 3725, 3740 or 3749 phones.
The availability of particular base stations variants depends on the country of operation.
IP Base Stations
IP base stations are supplied with a mounting bracket and a 1.2 metre (4 foot) LAN cable. The base station can be
powered using IEEE 802.3af power over ethernet (PoE 7W Class 2). Alternatively the base station also requires a main
power supply outlet socket within 8 metres (26 feet) cable distance and power supply unit.
The original IPBS1 versions of these base stations have been replaced by IPBS2 versions. The two types are functionally
the same and can be mixed in the same installation.
Digital base stations can be powered either direct from the IP DECT Gateway or using separate power adapters for each
base station. The number of base stations that the IP DECT Gateway can power depends on the cable distance to each
base station and the type of cable used. The maximum cable length between the IP DECT Gateway and each digital base
station should not exceed 1500 meters.
Digital base stations are available in variants with internal and external aerials. There is no digital variant of the Compact
Base Station base station.
· Digital Base Station with internal antennas for European Union, Switzerland, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and
Russia.
· Digital Base Station with external antennas for European Union, Switzerland, Iceland, Norway and Russia.
1.4 Aerials
The following different aerials can be used to replace the supplied aerials on a base stations with external aerials. These
aerials have aerial leads to allow for optimal positioning. Note that these optional aerials are not supported in North
America.
Though the gateway does not support telephone calls, it can be configured to act as the master base station for the whole
DECT system. It is possible to for it to act as a master even in a system that has a mix IP and digital base stations.
· Synchronization of attached digital base stations via UPN cables (including automatic cable delay measurement).
· Over-the air synchronization master for IP base stations. Master sync or backup sync functionality can reside in the
gateway appliance.
· Seamless roaming and handover, also with IP base station on same site.
· The IP DECT Gateway can act as the master base station for the DECT system. This does not affect the count of
actual base stations (IP and or digital) allowed.
· Remote automatic update of digital base stations connected to the IP DECT Gateway.
· Configuration option for reuse of Avaya’s UPN-repeaters. This means a configuration option for each base station
port to disable the automatic cable delay measurement and allow to manually set a cable delay value for that
specific port.
· Remote power feeding of digital base stations via UPN-ports. The maximum cable length between the IP DECT
Gateway and each digital base station should not exceed 1500 meters. The length and type of cable used affects
the power consumption 81 . If the total power capacity of the IP DECT Gateway is exceeded, additional digital base
stations will require their own power support connection.
· Note: The IP DECT Gateway does not support call handover when the digital base station a call is using is reset or
unplugged.

3720/3725 phones is not usable with 3740/3749 phones and vice versa. There is no battery charger for 3749
phones.
For IP Office Release 5 this unit also provides directory integration between the IP Office and the DECT R4 system.
For IP Office Release 6 and higher, directory integration is done by the master base station without requiring an AIWS.
However an AIWS is still required for both functions if SMS is needed.
The unit is managed via web browser and requires a fixed IP address.
· Wall mounting brackets are included with the unit. Various other mounting kits are available.
· Built-in power supply. The AIWS is supplied with a number of power leads suitable for most locales.
· For installation and maintenance, this server is managed by a PC using Windows Internet Explorer (7.0 or above)
and Sun’s Java Runtime Environment.
Several variants of the server are available. There is no upgrade available between variants.
1. Up to 32 handsets.
2. Up to 120 handsets.
· Wall mountable.
Several variants of the server are available. There is no upgrade available between variants.
1. Up to 120 handsets.
· Sufficient number of base stations covering each area for the number of expected simultaneous users (up to 8 per
base station) in that area.
· Sufficient overlap between areas of base station coverage to allow for call handover 26 when DECT phone users
are moving.
· Where possible, synchronization 27 of each base station with more than one other base station.
The diagram below indicates the basic measures for coverage between a base station and a DECT phone.
Signal Description
-40dB Strong signal typically seen when a phone is close to the base station.
-62dB Minimum signal strength at which a base station will accept a phone wanting to handover from another base
station.
-68dB Signal strength below which the phone will begin looking for a base station to which it can handover.
-75dB At this signal strength, the increased error rate will become apparent in the speech.
-90dB At this signal strength calls are likely to disconnect. This is also the limit for one base station to synchronize
with another.
Though this section focuses mainly on the measure of signal strength, the DECT signalling employs a number of methods
to overcome a poor signal. The other key factor that affects signalling is the error rate. While decreasing signal strength
and increasing error rate are usually related, there may be some scenarios where a higher than expected error rate
occurs.
In practice, no rules or guarantees can be given for base station coverage. Coverage is affected by too many factors that
are unique to each site. The following is a guide to those factors that can affect coverage which you should consider and
look for during any site survey.
· Metal surfaces.
· Beware of
· Wire Meshes and Grills with Apertures of Less than 4cm (1.5 inches).
These block signals as effectively as continuous metal sheet.
· Fire Doors
These block the signals. In multi-occupancy building such as hotels, the high number of fire-doors may be a
problem.
· Stair Wells
In modern office buildings, stair wells frequently combine concrete building supports, fire doors and the
intervening floor material, making them a special problem.
· Screened Rooms
Typically found in offices involved with TV, video and radio production, but also possible in computer centers.
· Empty Sites
Do not perform a survey on a site that is not yet occupied. The survey results will differ from those of the same
site once occupied by the customer business. Similarly the survey should be performed during normal business
hours in order to assess the areas of usage and the effect of equipment being operated and moved.
· Be aware of
· Signal Direction
The signal from a base station does not propagate evenly in all directions. The signal typically propagates
strongest in the horizontal plane. However the ability for a base station to serve callers located on floors above
or below it should not be ignored. This may allow coverage to be extended to areas not frequently used and so
not meriting a dedicated local base station.
· Rack Chargers
A rack charger (6 phones) immediately creates an area where a single base station (8 calls) would be near
maximum capacity. Look to provide overlapping base station support to areas where rack chargers will be
located.
One base station is assigned as the 'air synch master', typically the master base station. Each other base station can
synch directly with it or indirectly via a synchronization chain. However, it is preferable that the number of synchronization
'hops' between any particular base station and its air synch master base station is kept as low as possible. To help achieve
this it is recommended that the air synch master is placed centrally within the set of base stations.
Where possible, each base station should be placed in synchronization range of more than one base station. That allows
the base stations to maintain synchronization should one base station fail or be switched off for maintenance. The process
of synchronizing by the shortest route to the air synch master when in synchronization range of multiple base stations is
automatic.
Having separate locations, each with its own synchronization is done through the settings on the DECT | Air Sync tab of
each base station. For each location, set the same Sync Region number for all the base stations at that location, using a
different number for each location. In addition, set the Sync Mode of one of the base stations in each location as Master
.
· Building Layout
Accurate building plans are an essential aid to both the site survey and also for later fault analysis. Ensure that
you have an accurate plan of the customer premises, including the locations of mains power outlets and
network connection points.
· Perform the survey during normal business hours. The movement of large items of machinery, such as lifts and
shutter doors, will then be observable during the survey.
· Ensure that you have read this documentation and understand the requirement of both phone handover 26 and
base station synchronization 27 .
· As the survey takes place, note whether additional network connection points will be required and or mains power
outlets. Consider the use of Power over Ethernet, if possible in order to simplify base station installation.
4. Select Link. The phone will display information about the base station.
· C7 S10
This is the DECT signal carrier and slot.
· ss
This is the signal strength 24 . This is the main value that should be recorded and accessed as you perform the
survey.
Signal Description
-40dB Strong signal typically seen when a phone is close to the base station.
-62dB Minimum signal strength at which a base station will accept a phone wanting to handover from another base
station.
-68dB Signal strength below which the phone will begin looking for a base station to which it can handover.
-75dB At this signal strength, the increased error rate will become apparent in the speech.
-90dB At this signal strength calls are likely to disconnect. This is also the limit for one base station to synchronize
with another.

· Screwdrivers for use with the screws selected for AIWS wall mounting.
Tools
· IP Office Manager.
· Device Manager
The software installed on each handset may need to be upgraded to match that supplied with the DECT R4 software
34 . This is done using the Windows Device Manager software to upgrade phones via an advanced charger or
using AIWS Device Manager 95 to upgrade phones over the air.
DECT R4 is supported on a range of Avaya systems. However, for IP Office operation, only firmware specifically
documented as having been tested and supported with IP Office should be used. Details of supported firmware will be
included in IP Office Technical Bulletins and Technical Tips.
1. On the programming PC, create a folder with a name indicating its purpose, for example c:\IP_DECT_R4.
2. Within the IP Office Administrator Application software (ie. the software from which IP Office Manager is installed),
locate the folder IPDECT.
3. The folder contains a file DECT R4.zip. This is the file containing software for DECT R4. The file IPDECT.zip
contains software for the previously supported IP DECT product and not for DECT R4.
4. Copy the DECT R4.zip file to the folder created on the programming PC.
5. Using WinZip or a similar tool, extract the contents of the zip file into the folder, maintaining the directory structure
of the zip files.
· Open the IP Base Station folder. There are separate sub-folders for IPBS1 and IPBS2 base stations. Open
each and note the software level shown as part of the .bin file filenames, there are separate files for the base
station boot file and firmware file. All the base station in the installed system should be run the same levels of
software.
· Open the Handsets folder and note the software level shown as part of the .pkg file filenames. The handsets
in the system should be running this level of software or higher.
· Open the IP DECT Gateway folder and note the software level shown as part of the .bin filenames.
Device Management
During installation (provision or non-provisioned) it may be necessary to upgrade the software being used by the 3720,
3725, 3740 or 3749 phones. This is done in one of two ways:
Requirements
· It is assumed that you are familiar with installation and configuration of IP Office systems.
Information
· Service user name and password for IP Office configuration access.
· Service user name and password for IP Office security settings access.
· IP Office IP address.
Parts Required
· IP Office Release 7.0 software DVD or image of the IP Office Release 7.0 admin software.
Tools Required
· Programming PC with IP Office Manager application installed. You must have rights on this PC to change its IP
address settings unless it is a DHCP client.
· For new IP Office systems installed with IP Office Release 7.0, the appropriate security settings are configured by
default. However it is still important to check the settings and to be aware of the controls that are used.
· For existing IP Office systems upgraded to IP Office Release 7.0, the default settings may not necessarily be
created as required. Therefore you must check the security settings and adjust them if required.
1. Start IP Office Manager and receive the configuration from the system.
2. Receiving the configuration will switch IP Office Manager from simplified view mode to advanced view mode
(security settings are not accessible in simplified view mode).
4. From the discovery menu select the IP Office and click OK.
5. Enter the systems user name and password for the security service user login. They will be different from the name
and password used for IP Office configuration access.
6. Select Services. The list of services should include one called HTTP. Select this service.
a. If the service is not present then the system has not been upgraded to run IP Office Release 7.0 or higher
software.
b. The HTTP service affects all HTTP connections provided by the IP Office system. Changing its setting will affect
applications other than just the DECT R4. The only option that change be changed is the Service Security
Level. The default is Secure + Unsecure, meaning both http and https can be used between the base station
and IP Office.
· Unsecure Only
HTTP port 80 available and used for phone files, embedded file manager, system file upgrade, one-X Portal
directory services, DECT R4 provisioning, IP Office Video Softphone provisioning.
· Secure + Unsecure
This mode (the default) allows both unsecure HTTP (see above) and secure HTTPS (see below)
connections.
· Secure, Low
HTTPS port 443 available and used for DECT R4 provisioning, IP Office Video Softphone provisioning. This
option allows secure access to that service using TLS, and demands weak (for example DES_40 + MD5)
encryption and authentication or higher. The service's unsecured TCP port is disabled.
· Secure, Medium
This option allows secure access to that service using TLS, and demands moderate (for example DES_56 +
SHA-1) encryption and authentication or higher. The service's unsecured TCP port is disabled.
· Secure, High
This option allows secure access to that service using TLS and demands strong (for example 3DES + SHA-
1) encryption and authentication, or higher. In addition, a certificate is required from the client (usually
Manager). For further details of security certificates see the IP Office Security Mode section in the IP Office
Manager manual.
7. Select Rights Groups. The list of groups should contain one called IPDECT Group. Select that group. If the
group is not present in the list, click on the new entry icon and create the group.
a. Select the HTTP tab. Check that the option DECT R4 Provisioning is selected.
8. Select Service Users. The list of users should include one called IPDectService. Select that user.
a. In the Rights Group Membership list check that the user is set as a member of the IPDECT Group.
b. Leave the Account Status as Enabled and the Account Expiry as <None>.
9. Click on the icon to save any changes you have made to the security settings.
· Reboot Required
Add or removing a line from the IP Office configuration requires the IP Office system to reboot. This will end all calls
and services in progress.
1. Using IP Office Manager, receive the configuration from the IP Office system.
3. Click on the icon and select IP DECT Line. The settings for an IP DECT line are displayed. If the option is greyed
out then the configuration already contains an IP DECT line.
4. On the Line tab there are no adjustable settings. Once the system is installed and operational, this tab will list the
DECT extensions.
5. Select the VoIP tab. This table is used to set details of the master base station.
a. Set the Gateway IP Address to match the IP address that will be assigned to the master base station. The
MAC Address field is not used.
a. If you want to use anonymous handset subscription, select the Auto-Create Extension and Auto-Create
User options.
c. In the SARI/PARK field enter the SARI code that will be provided to the master base station.
· Auto-Create
If you select this option, extension and user entries are automatically created in the IP Office configuration
when a new handset is subscribed. Use this option for anonymous subscription. Ensure that the Auto-
Create User and Auto-Create Extension settings are also selected. For a provisioned installation, this
mode should be used if the installation includes just 3720, 3725, 3740 and 3749 phones.
· Preconfigured
If you select this option, handset will only be able to subscribe if they match an existing IP DECT extension
configured in the IP Office configuration, including an IPEI. For a provisioned installation, this mode should
be used if the installation includes a mix of 3720, 3725, 3740, 3749 phones and other DECT phones.
· Disabled
After installation and subscription of the handsets, this option can be selected to prevent the further
subscription of handsets.
Phones without a license will still be able to subscribe and register but will be limited to making emergency calls only (calls
that match an IP Office Dial Emergency short code). The associated user will be treated as if logged off. If a license
becomes available, it will be assigned to any unlicensed DECT handsets first and then to any other unlicensed Avaya IP
phone in the order that the phones registered.
· Phones can be licensed up to the 384 extension limit for all phone extensions of any type.
· For each IP500 VCM 32 or IP500 VCM 64 card installed in the system also enables 12 Avaya IP endpoints
without requiring licenses.
· For each IP400 VCM card installed in the system, each VCM channel supported by the card allows support
for 3 Avaya IP phones.
· The VCM channels provided by IP500 Combination cards do not enable any Avaya IP endpoints.
· Licenses are normally automatically assigned to extensions in order of registration. However, existing
extensions can be configured to reserve a license 42 . This ensures that they do not become unlicensed
when newly added extensions manage to register first following a system reboot.
1. Using IP Office Manager, receive the configuration from the IP Office system.
2. Select System.
4. The feature key serial number is shown by the Dongle Serial Number field.
2. Select License.

The software installed on each handset may need to be upgraded to match that supplied with the DECT R4 software
34 . This is done using the Windows Device Manager software to upgrade phones via an advanced charger or
using AIWS Device Manager 95 to upgrade phones over the air.
DECT R4 is supported on a range of Avaya systems. However, for IP Office operation, only firmware specifically
documented as having been tested and supported with IP Office should be used. Details of supported firmware will be
included in IP Office Technical Bulletins and Technical Tips.
1. On the programming PC, create a folder with a name indicating its purpose, for example c:\IP_DECT_R4.
2. Within the IP Office Administrator Application software (ie. the software from which IP Office Manager is installed),
locate the folder IPDECT.
3. The folder contains a file DECT R4.zip. This is the file containing software for DECT R4. The file IPDECT.zip
contains software for the previously supported IP DECT product and not for DECT R4.
4. Copy the DECT R4.zip file to the folder created on the programming PC.
5. Using WinZip or a similar tool, extract the contents of the zip file into the folder, maintaining the directory structure
of the zip files.
· Open the IP Base Station folder. There are separate sub-folders for IPBS1 and IPBS2 base stations. Open
each and note the software level shown as part of the .bin file filenames, there are separate files for the base
station boot file and firmware file. All the base station in the installed system should be run the same levels of
software.
· Open the Handsets folder and note the software level shown as part of the .pkg file filenames. The handsets
in the system should be running this level of software or higher.
· Open the IP DECT Gateway folder and note the software level shown as part of the .bin filenames.
Phones without a license will still be able to subscribe and register but will be limited to making emergency calls only (calls
that match an IP Office Dial Emergency short code). The associated user will be treated as if logged off. If a license
becomes available, it will be assigned to any unlicensed DECT handsets first and then to any other unlicensed Avaya IP
phone in the order that the phones registered.
· Phones can be licensed up to the 384 extension limit for all phone extensions of any type.
· For each IP500 VCM 32 or IP500 VCM 64 card installed in the system also enables 12 Avaya IP endpoints
without requiring licenses.
· For each IP400 VCM card installed in the system, each VCM channel supported by the card allows support
for 3 Avaya IP phones.
· The VCM channels provided by IP500 Combination cards do not enable any Avaya IP endpoints.
· Licenses are normally automatically assigned to extensions in order of registration. However, existing
extensions can be configured to reserve a license 42 . This ensures that they do not become unlicensed
when newly added extensions manage to register first following a system reboot.
1. Using IP Office Manager, receive the configuration from the IP Office system.
2. Select System.
4. The feature key serial number is shown by the Dongle Serial Number field.
2. Select License.
5. Enter the license which you have been supplied and click OK.
6. The type of the license, Avaya IP endpoints, should be displayed but with its License Status set to Unknown. If
the License Type was not recognized, check that the key was entered correctly.
7. Save the configuration back to the IP Office system and then receive the configuration from the IP Office system
again.
1. Using IP Office Manager, receive the configuration from the IP Office system.
3. Select the IP DECT tab. Note, the appearance of this menu will vary depending on whether you are doing a
provisioned or non-provisioned installation.
4. The Reserve Avaya IP endpoint license setting is used to reserve an existing license for the extension. The
option is greyed out if the configuration does not have sufficient unreserved licenses remaining.
5. Repeat the process for any other extensions for which you want to reserve the license.
· Reboot Required
Add or removing a line from the IP Office configuration requires the IP Office system to reboot. This will end all calls
and services in progress.
1. Using IP Office Manager, receive the configuration from the IP Office system.
3. Click on the icon and select IP DECT Line. The settings for an IP DECT line are displayed. If the option is greyed
out then the configuration already contains an IP DECT line.
4. On the Line tab there are no adjustable settings. Once the system is installed and operational, this tab will list the
DECT extensions.
5. Select the VoIP tab. This table is used to set details of the master base station.

One base station is assigned as the 'air synch master', typically the master base station. Each other base station can
synch directly with it or indirectly via a synchronization chain. However, it is preferable that the number of synchronization
'hops' between any particular base station and its air synch master base station is kept as low as possible. To help achieve
this it is recommended that the air synch master is placed centrally within the set of base stations.
Where possible, each base station should be placed in synchronization range of more than one base station. That allows
the base stations to maintain synchronization should one base station fail or be switched off for maintenance. The process
of synchronizing by the shortest route to the air synch master when in synchronization range of multiple base stations is
automatic.
Having separate locations, each with its own synchronization is done through the settings on the DECT | Air Sync tab of
each base station. For each location, set the same Sync Region number for all the base stations at that location, using a
different number for each location. In addition, set the Sync Mode of one of the base stations in each location as Master
.
1. In the left-hand panel, select DECT. Select the Air Sync tab.

Wall Mounting
Remove the mounting bracket from the base station. Use it as a template for marking the screw fixing holes. Note the
diagram below indicating the required clearance for getting the base station onto the mounting bracket.
1. Hold the mounting bracket with its flat side against the wall with the text ‘TOP’ upwards and mark the two holes.
Observe the minimum distance between the top screw hole and the ceiling. This depends on the base station type
as follows:
2. Drill the two holes using a 6mm diameter drill and insert the included wall plugs.
3. Position the mounting bracket with its flat side to the wall and fasten it with the two included 3.5mm diameter
screws.
There are two methods of subscription; anonymous phone subscription and pre-configured phone subscription. Both
methods require the DECT users to be pre-configured in the master base station configuration. However, anonymous
phone subscription allows the user pre-configuration to be done without knowing the IPEI of the DECT phone the user will
actually use.
1.Allow Subscription.
5.Disable Subscription.
· This method makes changes to the IP Office system configuration. Ensure that no copies of the configuration are open
in Manager during subscription as sending that configuration back to the IP Office system will remove the subscriptions
and require the handsets to be resubscribed.
Pre-Requisites
· o Master base station installed and connected to the network.
Information
· Service user name and password for IP Office configuration.
Tools
· IP Office Manager.
· Device Manager
The software installed on each handset may need to be upgraded to match that supplied with the DECT R4 software
34 . This is done using the Windows Device Manager software to upgrade phones via an advanced charger or
using AIWS Device Manager 95 to upgrade phones over the air.

This name displayed on the phone when idle. It is also the name used for the user created in the IP Office
configuration. The name must be unique.
· Number
This will be the extension number of the phone on both the IP Office and DECT R4 systems. The number must
be unique.
The remaining two fields should not be completed if you want to use anonymous subscription. This removes the
requirement of knowing the phone IPEI numbers during installation.
· IPEI/IPDI
Enter the phones IPEI number. For 3720, 3725 phones this is printed on the label inside the phones battery
compartment.
· For 3720, 3725, 3740 and 3749 phones, the IPEI can be displayed by selecting Menu | Settings |
