Wideband Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications
Encyclopedia
Wideband Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications, or simply WDECT, in mobile telephone technology, is similar to Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications
(DECT), except that it is a frequency hopping protocol. The protocol will jump pseudo-randomly between different parts of the 2.4 GHz radio spectrum
to prevent interference and eavesdropping. Unfortunately this is the same part of the radio spectrum that wireless networking
uses.
Uniden
is one of the largest producers of WDECT telephones. Uniden developed the term WDECT as a marketing tool for 2.4 GHz cordless phones to assist in competing with true DECT products.
There is no correlation between WDECT and DECT technology.
