IP telephony server. SpectraLink Voice Priority (SVP) and Quality of Service SpectraLink Voice Priority (SVP) is the SpectraLink quality of service (QoS) mechanism that is implemented in the wireless telephone and AP to enhance voice quality over the wireless network.
Multiple SVP Server environments are those which have more than one NetLink SVP Server. Up to four SVP010 models or up to two SVP020 models may be installed in any one subnet. Up to 16 models of SVP100 Servers may be installed in any one subnet.

SpectraLink Corporation the Erlang calculation for telephony traffic. The possible installed handsets figures are approximate and meant as a guideline and not as an absolute recommendation for any facility. Number of Number of calls installed handsets possible Servers per Server An Erlang is a unit of telecommunications traffic measurement.
SpectraLink Corporation Notes on System Configuration In an IP system using subnets to differentiate telephony areas, each subnet must have its own APs. Each subnet may require an SVP Server to maintain voice quality, but this depends on traffic volume and router capacity.
SpectraLink Corporation System Diagram The following diagram shows multiple NetLink SVP Servers residing on a network with an IP telephony gateway and IP telephony server, wireless LAN APs, and Ethernet switch: access point Wireless Telephones access point optional Wireless Device supplied by SpectraLink PN: 72-0178-01-F.doc...
Contact SpectraLink, or a certified SpectraLink distributor, for specific information about your facility’s needs. The NetLink system must connect to APs that utilize SpectraLink Voice Priority (SVP). Contact SpectraLink, or a certified SpectraLink distributor, to verify that your AP and its software version are supported.

SpectraLink Corporation Screw the other end of the two mounting plates (oblong screw holes) to the rack. Repeat steps 1-3 for each additional SVP Server. The mounting plate is designed to provide the correct minimum spacing between units. When mounting multiple units, stack the units in the rack as closely as possible.
SpectraLink Corporation Configuring the NetLink SVP Server During initial setup of the NetLink SVP Server the IP address is established and the maximum number of active calls per AP is set. Optionally, you may enter a hostname and a location for software updates via TFTP.
Allows you to set network configuration options, including IP address and hostname. Change Password Allows you to change the password for NetLink SVP Server access. SVP-II is a designation used internally by SpectraLink Engineering. PN: 72-0178-01-F.doc Installation, Configuration, and Administration NetLink SVP Server (within IP environments)
