Panasonic 5.8GHz Cordless Phones

Panasonic offer a number of 5.8 GHz cordless phones. In this article, I will discuss the features available on a number of these phones. If you run a wireless network at home, 5.8 GHz cordless phones are less likely to cause interference than the 2.4 GHz models.

The KX-TG4323B cordless phone is part of the 4300 series which offer expandability (through the addition of more handsets), a digital answering machine and "Night Mode". Night Mode allows you to put one or more handsets into silent mode at various times - when you go to bed for example. The KX-TG4323B comes with the base unit and 3 handsets, but you can buy different packages with varying numbers of handsets - the KX-TG4324B comes with 4 handsets. Or you can buy individual handsets (KX-TGA430B).

If you need more than one phone line, the Panasonic KX-TG4500B cordless telephone supports up to 4 lines and is expandable to up to 8 handsets (using the KX-TGA450B model). It also has digital answering machine built in.

If 4 lines is overkill, then the 6700 series supports up to 2 lines with the KX-TG6700B having 1 handset and the KX-TG6702B having 2. It can also be expanded up to 8 handsets. Both these models feature a digital answering system.

The multi-line capability of the phones discussed above comes with conferencing ability allowing you to facilitate a 3 way conversation between 2 inbound callers and yourself. You can also put one line on hold while answering a call on another line.

Another feature offered by all of these cordless phones is speakerphone. Using this function, you can put the handset down and continue talking, or perhaps share the conversation with others in the same room.
