1.2 COUNTRY SELECTION
Country settings are pre-determined by the DAP Controller and this ensures that the 8340
Smart IP-DECT AP only operates according to local country regulations. It is not possible
for any 3rd party or end user to alter these settings or download software that controls the
RF parameters.
The variant sold in each country can only operate in the frequency band allowed in that
country. This is ensured by only delivering the correct DAP controller version for each
country.
When the OmniPCX Enterprise is used with the DECT Access Points, there are three
types of DAP Controllers available for the 8340 Smart IP-DECT AP:
 DAP Controller – International.
This version is used in EMEA countries and countries that use the European
frequencies and power levels. In these countries, only the DAP Controller -
International will be delivered, so no other frequencies than the European
frequencies and power levels are possible in this region.
 DAP Controller - North America
This version is used in North America and can only use the North American
frequencies and power levels. In these countries, only the DAP Controller – North
America will be delivered, so no other frequencies than the North American
frequencies and power levels are possible in this region.
 DAP Controller - Selective Countries.
This version is used in countries with frequency ranges other than EMEA or North
America.
