SpectraLink 6000 System
Description
This section generally explains the installation and site requirements of the SpectraLink 6000 System. The SpectraLink 6000 System is a wireless communication system that allows hand-held SpectraLink 6000 Wireless Telephones to communicate using the existing telephone system.
The SpectraLink 6000 System’s advanced micro-cellular architecture utilizes Base Stations, or cells, located throughout the facility to accommodate on-premise roaming. As a handset user moves within the coverage area, the call is seamlessly passed between cells. The SpectraLink 6300 MCU supports up to 3,200 users and millions of square feet of coverage, resulting in a scalable enterprise-wide wireless voice solution.
For simplicity, this manual refers to the existing wired phone system, whether an on-premises PBX or Telco-provided Centrex system, as the “telephone system.”
The SpectraLink 6000 System uses a micro-cellular design consisting of three primary components: the Master Control Unit (MCU), Base Stations, and Wireless Telephones (handsets). The following diagram shows an overview of the system.
