CLIP (abbreviation for Calling Line Identification Presentation) is a feature for incoming calls and can be enabled or disabled only on them. In the CLIP number of the calling party is transmitted to the called party, unless this is already restricted on the calling side (CLIR). Then has the person called a "CLIP-enabled" device is displayed the number of the caller. Does this terminal via an address book with the ability to store names, the corresponding name can be displayed.

| CLIR | CLIR (abbreviation for Calling Line Identification Restriction) is a feature for outgoing calls, and can be enabled or disabled only on them. With CLIR, it is possible to suppress the transmission of the telephone number to the called subscriber or restrict. It is therefore also known as "CLIR". It is only to a limited extent, because emergency services police, fire and rescue services are exempt. |

| Flash Funktion | This function is often used in analog telephone systems that support two-wire cabling and DTMF commands. Ensuring that the system can recognize that it is commands to the telephone system, and not to DTMF commands eg for controlling a three-party conference in the public exchange, or to control an answering machine to the remote site in the transmitted DTMF tones, is the line connection for 70-90 msunterbrochen and the telephone system goes into command mode. This function is referred to as flash function. |

| MMS | The Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) is a further development of SMS (Short Message Service) and EMS (Enhanced Message Service) to look at and offers the possibility of using a mobile phone to send multimedia messages to other mobile devices or regular e-mail addresses |
| Monochrom | Monochrome Stands for "monochrome", meaning in connection with a mobile phone display indicates that the display on the screen can only be done in black and white. |
| Monophon | Monophonic ringtones are monophonic tones, which restricts playback of ringtones acoustically. |
| MP | Megapixel (MP) is based on the SI prefix for a million picture elements (pixels) and is the most common unit used to indicate the sensor and image resolution in digital photography. |
| MSN | With MSN (English acronym for Multiple Subscriber Number) ISDN Basic Rate Interface can be reached under several phone numbers. The MSNs can be flexibly allocated to the terminal. In Germany the number of MSNs per ISDN multipoint connection is limited by the Federal Network Agency to a maximum of ten. The MSN is the part of the phone number, the area code, also called code, follows. |
| NiMH | A nickel-metal hydride battery (NiMH) is an accumulator with a positive electrode made ??of nickel (II) hydroxide and a negative electrode made of a metal. |
| PMR | PMR radio (short for Private Mobile Radio), 446bezeichnet as PMR, is a relatively new citizens' band radio application, which is allocated from 446.000 to 446.100 MHz UHF frequency range. PMR is the European counterpart to the American FRS, short for Family Radio Service. |
| Polyphon | Polyphony refers to various types of polyphony in music. A Polyphonic Ringtone consists of several registers. |
| PTT | Push to Talkbezeichnet generally at radio devices, the button to switch from receive to transmit. |
| Repeater | A repeater is in communication technology, an electrical or optical signal amplifier or dresser to increase the range of the signal. The repeater is located some distance from the transmitter, receives the signals and sends them into newly edited form further, resulting in a larger distance can be bridged. |
| R-Taste | The inquiry key, often R button in telephony serves to private or public telecommunications networks to signal commands which go beyond the transfer of the number to be called. This can be for example a relaying a call to another participant. |

| ULTRA RANGE | The term Ultra Range of manufacturers DeTeWe referred achieve up to 8-fold wider reception range than conventional DECT phones a special telecommunication technology in which cordless phones use the DECT standard. The system is based on a micro-radio cellular system which is realized with the DECT repeaters. |
| VOIP | IP telephony (short for Internet Protocol telephony) and Internet telephony or voice over IP (VoIP) called, is making phone calls over computer networks, which are constructed according to Internet standards. Here are typical information for telephony, ie transmit voice and control information, for example to establish the connection via a usable also for data transmission network. With the interlocutors both computers, specializing in IP telephony telephone terminals when connected via special adapters classic telephones to establish the connection. |
| VOX Funktion | A Voice Operated Exchange (VOX) is a voice-operated switch. Thus the Sende-/Empfangsumschaltung is operated radio sets. A VOX eliminates the changeover from manual with push-to-talk (PTT) and is therefore, for example, in hands-free application. |
