Powering the T7406
The T7406 design has taken into account the need to provide a reliably-powered cordless business
telephone. The T7406 utilizes premium 1400 mAh NiMh batteries.
A fully charged 1400 mAh battery should provide four to five hours of talk time in a typical
eight-hour day over, approximately, a three-year service life.
The T7406 has been engineered to provide the following talk-time parameters:
• T7406 users should feel comfortable using the handset for an entire workday without the need
to put the handset back into the charger cradle for charging or topping up.
• Studies have shown that users have been able to get four to five hours of talk time from a fully
charged 1400 mAh battery.
• Traffic studies have shown that typical users do not usually need more that three hours of talk
time in an eight-hour day.
• If talk times exceed four hours or the product is to see use through multiple, consecutive shifts,
multiple spare batteries are strongly recommended.
Battery Charge Controller
The T7406 incorporates a special handset battery charge controller that employs a four-stage
charging program that sequences charging from a soft start to a fast charge, and then to a topping
charge, followed by a maintenance charge.
