2.1.13.1
WTIM4
The four (4)-channel Wireless Terminal Interface gateway Module (WTIM4) provides four (4)
interfaces for GDC-400B, which is a DECT base station classified as the Remote Fixed Part
(RFP) in the DECT specification. DECT handsets can be used if the GDC-400B is connected to
a WTIM4 and the proper attendant programming is completed. The WTIM4 contains a processor
for IP to TDM voice and signaling conversion and DSP circuitry to provide transcoding for each
channel. The GDC-400B can be connected to the WTIM4 up to 600 meters from the gateway
using 24 AWG twisted pair cabling.
The WTIM4 includes a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet interface as well as packet voice processing
functions. The Ethernet port incorporates auto MDI, MDIX switching, therefore, both straight and
cross cables can be used.
