The range of the GigaRange phone seems better than the range of the KXTG2000 or KXTG4000 phones. Why is this?
The KXTG2000 and KXTG4000 were designed to deliver clarity and security using a technology called FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum). This means the digital signal is spread across the entire 2.4 giga hertz frequency bandwidth, allowing more than one handset to work with only one base unit. Since the power is split between handsets and the base, the total power – and therefore range – is reduced. The GigaRange phones use 2.4 GHz and 900 MHz frequencies while the KXTG2000 and KXTG4000 use the 2.4 GHz frequency only.
