A cordless telephony device is disclosed which includes a base module and at least one handset module. Each of the modules includes a transmitting and a receiving circuit with scanning means for analyzing the various channels (N) in turns so as to examine whether a request for a connection has been emitted on a channel. A definition (L) of the channel used is indicated in the data of a request for a connection emitted by a transmitter. Each module includes means for searching for the channel number (L) in the received data during a scanning operation in the receive mode, and for immediately settling on the channel that carries this number (L) if this channel number L is different from that (N) of the analyzed channel.
A cordless telephony device comprising a module called base and at least a module called handset, in which each module includes a transmitting and a receiving circuit comprising, inter alia, means for settling on a channel of a plurality of channels which have different frequencies, an element called scanning element for receiving and analyzing the various channels in turns so as to examine whether a request for a connection is emitted on a channel by another module, and means for incorporating in the data of a data transmission on a given channel, a data that defines the channel used, characterized in that each module comprises means for reading from the data of the analyzed channel during a scanning operation the data that corresponds to the channel number and for immediately settling on the channel that carries this number if this channel number is different from that of the analyzed channel.
