Overview

Yealink W80B-DM Multi-Cell DECT Manager - YL-W80DM
The Yealink W80B-DM is a dedicated DECT Manager designed for the Yealink W80 Multi-Cell DECT solution. It manages the network of W80B DECT base stations and provides centralised call control, handset management, SIP account handling and base station synchronisation. The W80B-DM supports up to 30 DECT base stations, 100 handsets, 100 SIP accounts and up to 100 parallel calls, making it suitable for larger business phone deployments.

Description

The Yealink W80B-DM Multi-Cell DECT Manager provides the central management required for a scalable Yealink DECT phone system. It enables seamless roaming between multiple W80B base stations while maintaining calls as users move between coverage areas. With support for up to 100 handsets and 30 base stations, the system can provide extensive cordless coverage across offices, multi-level buildings, warehouses and other larger business environments. The W80B-DM also supports PoE and can be wall mounted for a practical installation.

Features

What Is Multi-Cell DECT
Multi-Cell DECT allows cordless phones to roam between multiple base stations without dropping an active call. Yealink's Multi-Cell DECT solution can connect up to 100 handsets to as many as 30 base stations, allowing calls to be handed over between coverage areas as users move around the premises.

Taking the typical DECT base station range into account, with coverage of up to 50 metres indoors and up to 300 metres outdoors with a clear line of sight, a fully populated system can provide extensive wireless coverage. This makes the solution particularly useful for businesses where employees need to remain connected while moving between different areas or floors.

Designed for Large Business Environments
The Yealink Multi-Cell DECT solution is well suited to offices, warehouses, multi-level buildings and other environments where a single DECT base station cannot provide sufficient coverage. Multiple W80B base stations can be deployed to reduce coverage dead spots and create a larger, coordinated cordless phone network.

Unlike Wi-Fi based cordless phone deployments, DECT is specifically designed for voice communication and provides reliable, secure and low-interference wireless communication. This can make it a practical choice for businesses that require consistent voice quality across larger premises.

Central Management for the W80B Network
The W80B-DM acts as the central controller for the Multi-Cell DECT environment. It manages the connected W80B base stations, coordinates synchronisation and controls how system resources are allocated. It also handles SIP accounts, handsets and call control across the network.

The W80B-DM is required for deployments using the Yealink Multi-Cell DECT solution. Each deployment requires one W80B-DM DECT Manager.

How the Yealink W80B-DM Works
The W80B-DM manages communication between the W80B base stations and the wider VoIP phone system. It is responsible for call control and helps coordinate the DECT network so that handsets can move between base stations while maintaining connectivity.

This centralised approach can simplify larger installations by allowing multiple base stations and handsets to operate as one coordinated DECT system rather than as separate cordless phone networks.

Flexible Multi-Level Coverage
A major advantage of the Yealink W80 Multi-Cell DECT platform is the ability to extend cordless coverage across multiple areas. Businesses can deploy W80B base stations where additional coverage is needed, helping bridge dead spots between rooms, floors and sections of a building.

This can also reduce the need for traditional desktop phone cabling in areas where cordless handsets are more practical, potentially simplifying installation and reducing the amount of Ethernet cabling required for individual phones.

Installation and Mounting
The Yealink W80B-DM supports PoE, allowing power and network connectivity to be supplied through a compatible Ethernet connection. It is designed for wall mounting, providing a compact installation option for communications rooms, offices and other suitable locations.

Important Product Note
The W80B-DM is a DECT Manager and cannot be used as a standalone DECT base station. A Yealink W80B base station is required to provide the actual DECT radio coverage, while the W80B-DM manages the overall Multi-Cell DECT network.
