WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 configuration

This section describes the WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 and explains how to configure them.

For an overview of the WLAN handsets, refer to “WLAN Handsets 2210/2211” on page 55.

Tasks:

•Configure WLAN Handset 2210 and WLAN Handset 2211 (“Configuring the WLAN Handsets 2210/2211” on page 60)

•Program the features on the WLAN handsets (“Programming the WLAN Handsets 2210/2211” on page 70)

•Test the WLAN handsets (“Appendix C: Testing the WLAN Handsets 2210/2211” on page 109)

Note: The WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 require special configuration to enable them to communicate with the optional WLAN Application Gateway 2246. Ensure that these settings are correct. Refer to Opening and using the Admin Menu on page 61.

WLAN Handsets 2210/2211

The WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 use VoIP technology on IEEE 802.11-compliant WLANs. APs use radio frequencies to transmit signals to and from the WLAN handsets.

Employees carry WLAN handsets to make and receive calls as they move throughout the building. The WLAN handsets are used only on the premises; they are not cellular phones. Just like wired telephones, the WLAN handsets receive calls directly, receive transferred calls, transfer calls to other extensions, and make outside and long-distance calls (subject to corporate restrictions).

The radio frequencies use Spread Spectrum radio technology, which comes in two variations:

•Direct Sequence (DS)

•Frequency Hopping (FH)

The WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 use Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) radio technology to optimize bandwidth and minimize jitter on the WLAN IP Telephony network. The WLAN handsets are not compatible with FH.

The WLAN Handsets 2210/2211 on an 802.11b network operate at a transmission rate of up to 11 Mbit/s in a DSSS system.
