A multitude of convenient functions for digital telephony

In addition to a VoIP telephone system (SIP, RFC 3261), features include connectivity for two analog telephones and an ISDN telephone (or an ISDN telephone system). Up to six handsets can be connected to the integral DECT base station. Recognized convenient ISDN features, such as brokering, call waiting, call divert or three-way conference can easily be used in the same way as with the fixed-line network. The FRITZ!Box 6360 further supports HD telephony via the
G.722 standard and the DECT Eco mode. The integral broadband management (Quality of Service) of the FRITZ!Box also enables simultaneous applications such as Internet telephony and HD video streaming.

Fast connections with Wireless-N and Gigabit Ethernet
The new FRITZ!Box 6360 has four Gigabit Ethernet connections and also enables fast Wireless-N connections at speeds of up to 300 Mbit/s – in either the 2.4 GHz band or the 5 GHz band, as preferred. The device satisfies the most stringent security requirements, thanks to the WPA/WPA2 encryption which is activated ex works. FRITZ!Box supports
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) for connecting WLAN devices with the FRITZ!Box securely and with the greatest of ease at the touch of a button. The energy saving functions of the current AVM top models have also been integrated: the WLAN power can easily be switched on and off via the sleep mode or manually by means of a switch. The Green AP
mode also optimizes power output during use.

NAS functionality: use photos, music and more throughout the home network
The FRITZ!Box 6360 Cable makes photos, music, videos and other files available throughout the network thanks to the integral NAS (Network Attached Storage) functionality. Devices connected via USB 2.0, such as storage media or printers, are also available in the home network via printer and media servers – even when the computer is switched off. Online storage can also be seamlessly integrated, thanks to support for WebDAV. Both the network storage and additional functions can be operated with ease and convenience via the FRITZ!Box user interface (simply enter “fritz.box” in the browser) and they are also simple to manage.
