Be Connected - Electronics

Cordless phones have largely replaced the old traditional corded phones in our homes.
Nowadays, they have really good sound quality, great reception, long range and lots of extra features.
The way Cordless phones work is that the handset communicates with the base station via radio waves.
And that is precisely why one of the most important features to look for when choosing a cordless phone is to find one with maximum range and reliable security.
With a simple police scanning device, malicious people can listen to your conversations and steal your private information.  Also, it can sometimes happen that someone else in your neighborhood may be on the
same cordless phone frequency which would allow them to hook up to your land line and make calls at your expense.
Normally the higher the hertz, the more difficult it is to pick-up your phone’s frequency. They usually start at 49Mhz, for the very old versions up to 5.8Ghz for the latest generation of cordless phones.

Before purchasing your phone, spring for the extra costs and get a base and handsets that have the Spread Spectrum Technology since only high tech computer-driven systems can monitor Spread Spectrum devices.
