One thing you may or may not care about is the number of digital to
analogue transitions in the voice path... So with an ATA and a standard
DECT phone, you get digital into the ATA, analogue out, then into the
DECT base where it's digital to the handset... With the CP460 you omit
one set of analogue conversions. It's also less spaghetti in the wiring
department too!
