    SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server Overview The SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server is an Ethernet LAN device that works with access points (APs) to provide QoS on the wireless LAN. Voice packets to and from the SpectraLink 8000 Wireless Telephones are intercepted by the SVP Server and encapsulated for prioritization as they are routed to and from an IP telephony server.
  • Page 8: Spectralink 8000 Svp Server Models

    Multiple SVP Servers Multiple SVP Server environments are those which have more than one 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. All SVP Servers must be in the same subnet.
  • Page 9 A SpectraLink handset registers to a single SVP Server the first time it is powered on. Once the handset has contacted this Registration Server, it obtains a list of all SVP Servers in the system. The handset then maintains this list in non-volatile memory and updates it only when rebooted.
