Why do WiFi phones instead of DECT phones?
Umm, because I said the office is 100% wireless?
How the hell would I connect a desk phone with DECT?
The assumption is that you have Wireless Access Points. If you have those, then you have a switch. If you're lucky, there is an open port for the DECT and you can plug the DECT into that port. It might require you to run a new cable to the area you want to support the DECT.
Show me a DECT desk phone. I have never seen one.

Just wireless handsets, AFAIK.

Ya got me - I didn't see the requirement for a desk phone.

We do Yealink 48G with WF40 module all the time, prior to that we used Snom wifi 5+ years ago, which was maybe the only option then. Works great, no issues above wired networks if you have a decent wifi network deployed (UBNT, Ruckus, etc)
