In my neck of the woods...

A "Cordless Phone" refers to a cordless handset with a wired base. The phone communicates with the base and can't work without it. It's usually proprietary in nature as well.

A "Wireless Phone" usually refers to any phone communicating via 802.11. No base required. A cell phone is also sometimes referred to as a wireless phone.

    I have an asterisk box which has Polycom Soundpoints IP335 and
    IP650s registering to it both locally and remote.

    I want to be able to incorporate a cordless phone at the remote
    location; not a wireless phone.

    I want it to also be able to register to the same asterisk box so
    it can take calls and transfers.



What is the difference between a cordless phone and a wireless one?

We use and recommend the Panasonic KX-TGP500 and 550.
