2. NetLink SVP Server Overview
SpectraLink Voice Priority (SVP) is the SpectraLink quality of service (QoS) mechanism
that is implemented in the Wireless Telephone and access point (AP) to enhance voice
quality over the wireless network. SVP gives preference to voice packets over data
packets on the wireless medium, increasing the probability that all voice packets are
transmitted efficiently and with minimum delay. SVP is fully compliant with the IEEE
802.11, 802.11b, 802.11e and 802.11i standards.
The NetLink SVP Server is an Ethernet LAN device that works with the AP to provide
QoS on the wireless LAN. Voice packets to and from the NetLink Wireless Telephones
are intercepted by the NetLink SVP Server and encapsulated for prioritization as they are
routed to and from an IP telephony server or gateway.
NetLink Wireless Telephones support the 802.11e protocol including basic WMM™ and
the optional admission control if these are in turn supported by the AP. If the AP supports
WMM, the Wireless Telephone automatically discovers and uses it. WMM does not
replace the NetLink SVP Server.
2.1 Multiple SVP Servers
Multiple SVP Server environments are those which have more than one NetLink SVP
Server in the same subnet in order to accommodate larger systems and higher call
capacity.
In a system comprised of multiple SVP Servers using an IP protocol, a master SVP
Server must be identified. The master SVP Server must have a static IP address. The
Wireless Telephones and the other SVP Servers locate the master by using a static IP
address, DHCP, or DNS. The loss of a non-master SVP Server does not significantly
affect the operation of the remaining SVP Servers. However, the loss of the master SVP
Server results in a loss of all communication between all of the SVP Servers. This also
means that the loss of the master SVP results in the loss of all active calls and Wireless
Telephones cannot check-in until communication with master is reestablished.
In a NetLink Telephony Gateway system using multiple SVP Servers, there is no
“master” server.

SpectraLink Corporation Installation, Setup, and Maintenance
NetLink SVP Server
Part Number: 72-0178-00-J.doc Page 9
2.2 The Timing Function
In the NetLink Gateway environment, SVP Servers provide the "timing" function for
active calls. In multiple SVP Server environments, the active calls are distributed across
the SVP Servers. In the IP PBX environment, SVP Servers provide both the connection
or "gateway" to the IP PBX for the Wireless Telephones and the "timing" function for
active calls. This "gateway" function is distributed across the SVP Servers.
In both environments, the number of active SVP Servers is determined dynamically.
Whenever SVP Servers are added to or removed from the system, the distribution of
"timing" function for active calls, as well as the "gateway" function in the IP PBX
environment, is affected.
In a NetLink Gateway environment, the addition of an SVP Server is detected as soon as
the new SVP Server is up and running. The new SVP Server will immediately start
providing the “timing” function for the appropriate Wireless Telephones. The user should
not detect any change. The removal of an SVP Server is detected within one minute.
During this time, any Wireless Telephone that was using the SVP Server that was
removed will be affected. If the Wireless Telephone was not in a call, it may lose contact
with its Gateway, resulting in a check-out/check-in sequence. If the Wireless Telephone
was in a call, the audio will be lost and the call will be dropped.
2.3 Internal Gatekeeper
A gatekeeper is required in certain H.323 protocol systems. The gatekeeper that resides
on the SVP Server is designed for small applications using the NetLink Wireless
Telephones under the H.323 protocol as explained in NetLink e340/i640 Wireless
Telephone—With ITU H.323 Protocol: Setup and Maintenance.
The internal gatekeeper is not designed to scale beyond the capacity of a single SVP
Server and does not provide the advanced features required for larger installations. It has
a limit of 1000 registration records.

2.4 NetLink SVP Server Capacity
The NetLink SVP Server requires a Cat. 5 cable connection between its network port and
the Ethernet switch. The NetLink SVP Server auto-negotiates to the type of port on the
Ethernet switch and supports 10Base-T, 100Base-T, full-duplex and half-duplex port
types.
The maximum number of calls a single NetLink SVP Server is able to handle depends on
LAN factors per the following table:

2.5 Notes on System Configuration
In an IP system using subnets to differentiate telephony areas, each subnet
must have its own SVP Server as well as access points. This is not
considered a multiple SVP Server environment since the SVP Servers are
separated by the subnet architecture. Multiple SVP Server environments
are those which have more than one SVP Server in the same subnet in
order to accommodate a high volume of wireless telephony traffic.
Wireless Telephones cannot roam between subnets. Any call in progress
will be dropped when the user moves out of range. In order to resume
functionality in the new subnet area, the user must power cycle the
Wireless Telephone. Once the Wireless Telephone achieves
communication within the new subnet, normal functionality will return.
Subnets are not recommended in NetLink Telephony Gateway
environments.
IP multicast addresses are used by the NetLink i640 Wireless Telephone
system. This requires that multicasting be enabled on the subnet used for
the NetLink 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.

2.7 System Components
• NetLink e340 and i640 Wireless Telephones – Employees can carry Wireless
Telephones to make and receive calls as they move throughout the building. The
Wireless Telephones are to be used on-premises; they are not cellular or satellite
phones. They are connected to the facility's existing telephone system and to the
NetLink Telephony Gateway or IP gateway. Just like wired telephones, they can
receive calls directly, receive transferred calls, transfer calls to other extensions, and
make outside and long distance calls (subject to the restrictions applied in your
facility.)
The NetLink e340, h340 Wireless Telephone is a lightweight, durable handset
specifically designed for mobile workplace use within a facility. The NetLink i640
Wireless Telephone offers a durable design with push-to-talk functionality.
NetLink Wireless Telephones can operate on an 802.11b wireless network and can
operate at a transmission rate of up to 11Mb/s.
• NetLink Telephony Gateway – serves as the connecting point, or gateway, between
the LAN and the existing telephone system. One or more NetLink Telephony
Gateways are typically installed in the telephone equipment room. Each NetLink
Telephony Gateway supports up to 16 telephone lines and Wireless Telephones. Up
to 40 NetLink Telephony Gateways can be connected to the LAN to support
additional telephone lines. If five or more NetLink Telephony Gateways are
connected to the LAN, a NetLink SVP Server must be installed to handle the
increased call volume.
SpectraLink offers digital NetLink Telephony Gateways that work with the digital
ports on most common brands of telephone systems (PBX or key systems). We also
offer an analog NetLink Telephony Gateway that works with telephone systems (CO,
PBX, or Key Systems) with analog (loop start) ports.
• Access Points – supplied by third party vendors, access points provide the
connection between the wired Ethernet LAN and the wireless (802.11) LAN. Access
points (AP) must be positioned in all areas where Wireless Telephones will be used.
The number and placement of access points will affect the coverage area and capacity
of the wireless system. Typically, the requirements for use of NetLink Wireless
Telephones are similar to that of wireless data devices. Contact SpectraLink, or a
certified SpectraLink distributor, for specific information about your facility’s needs.
The NetLink system must connect to access points that utilize SpectraLink Voice
Priority (SVP). Contact SpectraLink, or a certified SpectraLink distributor, to verify
that your AP and its software version are supported.
• Ethernet Switch – a component in the wired Ethernet LAN infrastructure. Switches
interconnect multiple network devices, including access points and NetLink
Telephony Gateways. Ethernet switches are required to provide the higher
performance network connections needed to handle combined voice and data traffic.

SpectraLink Corporation Installation, Setup, and Maintenance
NetLink SVP Server
Part Number: 72-0178-00-J.doc Page 15
• Router – an optional component in the wired Ethernet LAN infrastructure that
separates a wired LAN into segments so that network traffic is restricted to those
segments that are directly involved in the communication. Installation of a network
router is recommended in larger networks, where there may be significant network
traffic not related to the wireless LAN. A router will isolate the wireless LAN from
the associated wired LAN so that they are not impacted by each others’ traffic. The
NetLink Telephony Gateways, the APs, and their associated Ethernet switch must all
be on the same “side” of the router.
• NetLink SVP Server – the NetLink SVP Server manages call network traffic. It is a
required component to utilize the 11Mb/s maximum transmission speed available in
the NetLink Wireless Telephone. It is required in any system when five or more
NetLink Telephony Gateways are connected to the LAN. With 40 NetLink Telephony
Gateways cabled together, the NetLink SVP Server supports a maximum of 640
telephone lines and 120 simultaneous Wireless Telephone calls.
SpectraLink Voice Priority (SVP) is the SpectraLink quality of service (QoS)
mechanism that is implemented in the Wireless Telephone and AP to enhance voice
quality over the wireless network. SVP gives preference to voice packets over data
packets on the wireless medium, increasing the probability that all voice packets are
transmitted efficiently and with minimum or no delay. SVP is fully compliant with
the IEEE 802.11 and 802.11b standards.
• Administrative computer – Required for setup and maintenance of the NetLink
Telephony Gateway and the NetLink SVP Server. This computer may be temporarily
connected directly to the component or to the network, a dedicated computer is not
required. Some installations use a laptop to configure and maintain system
components.
• TFTP Server – Required in an IP system to distribute software to the Wireless
Telephones and SVP Server. May be on a different subnet than the IP gateway, IP
telephony server, and APs.
