SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway Administration Guide

IP multicast addresses are used by the SpectraLink i640 and 8030 Wireless Telephone. This requires that multicasting be enabled on the subnet used for the SpectraLink Wireless Telephones, SVP Server, and Telephony Gateways.

Routers are typically configured with filters to prevent multicast traffic from flowing outside of specific domains. The wireless LAN can be placed on a separate VLAN or subnet to reduce the effects of broadcast and multicast traffic from devices in other network segments.

The specifications covered here allow for great flexibility in physical placement of the components within stated guidelines.

Each SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway and SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server measures approximately 4 x 12.5 x 7 inches, and weighs about five pounds. The units are designed to be wall mounted—vertically or horizontally—over 3/4” plywood or mounted in a standard 19-inch rack mount cabinet with a Rack Mount Kit.

Locate the SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway and SpectraLink

8000 SVP Server in a space with:

Sufficient backboard mounting space and proximity to the LAN access device (switched Ethernet switch), telephone switch, and power source.

Easy access to the front panel, which is used for cabling.

For the SpectraLink 8000 Telephony Gateway, a maximum distance of 250 feet from the host telephone switch for a digital interface, and 325 feet (100 meters) from the Ethernet switch.

For the SpectraLink 8000 SVP Server, a maximum distance of 325 feet (100 meters) from the Ethernet switch.
