SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephone Overview The SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephones is a Wi-Fi handset for workplace telephone systems. The handsets operate over a VIEW Certified 802.11a/b/g/n wireless LAN (WLAN) providing users a wireless extension of the SIP call server. By seamlessly integrating...
SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephone: Administration Guide for SIP SVP requires the use of the SVP Server, which is an Ethernet LAN device that works with in conjunction with Wi-Fi APs to ensure QoS over the WLAN. Voice packets to and from the Wireless Telephones are tunneled through the SVP Server to ensure voice prioritization as they are routed between the handset and SIP call server.

SpectraLink Wireless Telephone Overview PEAPv0/MSCHAPv2. Both of these methods require a RADIUS authentication server to be available on the network and accessible to the phone. Additional details are provided in Section 3.1. Normal 802.1X authentication requires the client to renegotiate its key with the authentication server on every AP handoff, which is a time- consuming process that negatively affects time-sensitive applications such as voice.

The location of the SIP TFTP server is separately specified in SIP handset administration parameters (See Chapter 2 SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephone Configuration, section The Admin Menu.) Normally, the SIP TFTP server is the same as the network TFTP server, see above.
Maximum Battery Pack performance is achieved after a few charge/discharge cycles. • If multiple Battery Packs are supplied with your handset, Polycom recommends that each be fully charged upon receipt to prolong battery life. Battery Packs will slowly lose charge if unused. To maintain battery potential, charge unused Battery Packs occasionally or alternate Battery Pack use.
SpectraLink Wireless Telephone Overview Startup Sequence The SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephone goes through an initialization sequence at startup. The line icons 1-9 display and count down as the handset steps through this sequence. This is usually very rapid. If there is difficulty at any step that prevents initialization from continuing, an error message will display and the related icon(s) will stay on.
SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephone: Administration Guide for SIP Icon The icon(s) shown in bold turns off when: (no icons) Handset has registered with at least one contact on one proxy server. Initialization is EXT. complete. The handset is in standby mode ready to receive and place calls. The line one XXXXX contact is displayed.
Page 23
SpectraLink Wireless Telephone Overview Active mode (off-hook) The handset is in the active mode when an incoming call is answered or when it is in communication with the SIP server without being in an active call. When an incoming call occurs during an active call, the handset will play the second call ringing sound until the call is answered, the caller hangs up, or the call transfers to voicemail.
Dual Charger. See the Handset Administration Tool (HAT) document for specific instructions. Please see your service representative or contact Polycom customer service for more information about this time-saving tool. When WPA2 Enterprise security is used, PAC files for EAP-FAST can be provisioned wirelessly or by using the HAT.

SpectraLink Wireless Telephone Configuration SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephones cannot roam with uninterrupted service between subnets unless specific LAN components are present. Certain AP/Ethernet switch combinations establish a Layer-2 tunnel across subnets that enable the handsets to roam. Without this capability, any call in progress will be dropped when the user moves out of range and the handset must be power cycled in order to resume functionality in the new subnet area.

Regulatory domain, 802.11 configuration and transmit power are interdependent. See Appendix A: Regulatory Domains for regulatory domain setting specifications. Polycom recommends that you check with local authorities for the latest status of national regulations for both 2.4 and 5 GHz wireless LANs. A regulatory domain must be selected in order for the handset to operate.

SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephones support a number of different IP protocol integrations. All SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephones are shipped from Polycom with a generic software load that allows them to associate to a wireless LAN and download functional software from a TFTP server. The handsets will not function properly without downloading appropriate software.

Software License and Protocol Management Minimum Configuration Process 1. Download the latest SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephone IP software from http://www.polycom.com/usa/en/support/voice/wi- fi/spectralink_8030_wireless.html. 2. Load the latest version of the SIP code and place it on the TFTP server and ensure the TFTP server is started. The slnk_cfg.cfg is downloaded first by the phone, and defines the SIP code files that will be subsequently downloaded.

SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephone: Administration Guide for SIP 4. Configure handset security settings to match AP configuration and RADIUS server settings. If WPA2-Enterprise security is used, credentials will need to be installed onto the handset. For EAP- FAST, the PAC file needs to be provisioned and for PEAP the handset will need to be enrolled with a certificate (requires use of the HAT).
SIP Integration Factors CODECs The SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephones are compatible with the G.711µ-law, G.711a-law and G.729 codecs. There is no setting required on the handset.
