A robust DECT phone from Gigaset, the E630A is built to withstand anything that life might throw at it. IP67-certified, it is resistant to shocks, splashes, and dust. That makes it the ideal choice for business environments such as restaurants, warehouses, garages, and workshops. The extra level of protection also makes it a solid pick for homes with young children, since the handset can survive a little more rough-and-tumble usage. A separate base station means that you don’t need to keep the main headset next to a telephone point, and the set can be expanded to up to 6 handsets. Lastly, the Gigaset E630A is also repeater-compatible to provide extra range.
