Description:

Get 2.4 GHz power with digital spread-spectrum technology in a stylish and affordable design with the GE 27700GE2 cordless phone. Say goodbye to static-filled conversations and dropped words with this high-powered phone with a sleek, modern look.

This GE cordless phone takes advantage of the higher-frequency 2.4 GHz range of the FM radio spectrum, opened to cordless phones only in 1998. A 2.4 GHz cordless phone like the GE 27700GE2 is basically an FM transmitter/receiver that uses shorter wavelengths so radio waves encounter less interference. The 2.4 GHz range is also far above the range accessible to most scanners, so there's less risk of eavesdropping.

When you add digital spread-spectrum technology to a 2.4 GHz cordless, you get the best security and clarity currently available. Based in part on a concept invented by 1940s screen actress Hedy Lamarr, spread spectrum transmission switches rapidly from frequency to frequency at random. A DSS signal needs less power and encounters less interference.

The GE 27700GE2 automatically switches between 40 channels in the 2.4 GHz range to find the best signal, while the Secure Voice scrambler adds another layer of security by encrypting the phone signal. It also includes an easy-to-use 20-number memory and a page/locator feature that enables you to find the handset when you've misplaced it.

The backlit keypad makes it easy to dial a number in the dark, and handset volume control allows you to adjust the volume as you talk. Indicators on the front of the phone's base light up when you have a voice-mail message waiting, when the phone is charging, or it is in use elsewhere in the house.

With the latest technology, advanced phone features and an affordable price, the GE 27700GE2 can't be beat as an introduction to 2.4 GHz DSS cordless power.
