      Does anyone know of a great long range cordless phone (SIP) that has good penetration through concrete walls, steel machinery, etc?

      I am currently using the Yealink W56P cordless phones, with an additional repeater, but the coverage still isn't that great. I think it is just a limitation of the DECT phones. At a previous employer, I have used the Engenius DuraFon Pro phones that operate on the 900MHz band, and provides excellent coverage. Especially in places such as warehouses and shop environments. Engenius now has a SIP model of these long range phones as well. However, they are quite expensive at $1200 for a base and 1 handset.

      Does anyone have any experience with cordless phones in a warehouse/shop environment? WIFI phones are out of the question for this place.

        WiFi and DECT are really the only options that I know of.

          Bigger the antenna the better the chances.

          Better still would be a repeater system or similar.

          Better again would be wired links between repeaters.

                    That's more terrifying then it should be.

                          Apologies, but it kinda had to be done.

                            The bigger your antenna, the better her reception.

                              I feel like you spelled something wrong there.... can't quite place my finger on it.

                                As I was typing the OP, I thought to myself.. "This could go 1 of 2 ways judging by how I am wording this...." The answers were as expected.
