Default Notes
Medium Controls the maximum distance between the
Range Cisco Headset 560 Series and its base.
By default, the bases have a DECT range of
over 330 feet (100 meters) in ideal conditions.
If you configure the DECT radio range to
Medium Range or Short Range, the headset
base consumes less power but users can't move
as far from the base while on a call. Configure
DECT radio range to Short Range for high
density headset deployment.
