Gigaset AS180/AS185 5 Ecological power use – Eco DECT in the Gigaset AS180 / AS185 Eco DECT saves energy and makes an active contribution to environmental protection. Eco DECT addresses the following points: Switched-mode versus conventional power supply 1. The use of switched-mode power supplies (A) in the base station cuts consumption by up to 60% compared to conventional power supply units (B).
Gigaset AS180/AS185 2. The new Eco DECT function complements this adjustment: the transmission power of the handset and base station in idle mode are automatically reduced to zero if the handset is in the base station and only one handset has been registered. 3. If customers select “Eco Mode”, they can also manually reduce the transmission power of the base station and handset by 80%; in “Eco Mode Plus” the transmission power in standby can be reduced by 100%.
