3600 Series Wireless Phones
As they move throughout the building, users can carry wireless phones to make and receive calls. The
wireless phones are to be used on-premises; they are not cellular or satellite phones. They are
connected to the facility's existing phone system and to the gateway or IP gateway. Just like wired
phones, 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 wireless phones can operate on an 802.11b wireless network and can operate at a transmission
rate of up to 11Mb/s.
3616 Wireless Phone
The 3616 wireless phone is a lightweight, durable handset specifically designed for mobile
workplace use within a facility using IP Office and 802.11b access points in a wireless LAN. The
phone supports five predefined feature keys and a mixture of six programmable line and feature
keys. Among other features, the wireless phone can receive calls directly, receive transferred
calls, transfer calls to other extensions, make conference calls, and make outside and long
distance calls (subject to the restrictions applied in your facility.)
3620 Wireless Phone
The 3620 wireless phone is a sturdier version of the 3616 phone and is ideally suited for
healthcare environments. The handset has the same features as the 3616 phone.
3626 Wireless Phone
The 3626 wireless phone offers a durable design with push-to-talk capabilities as well as the
same features as the 3616 phone.
The wireless phones use direct sequence spread spectrum radio technology (DS) to transmit audio
packets over wireless LAN access points that support the Avaya Wireless PC card.
Avaya Voice Priority Processor
Avaya Voice Priority Processor (AVPP) is an Ethernet LAN appliance that works with access points to
provide Quality of Service (QoS) on the wireless LAN. All packets to and from the wireless phones, pass
through the AVPP and are encapsulated for prioritization as they are routed to and from IP Office. AVPP
is fully compliant with the IEEE802.11 and 802.11b standards.
AVPP is required for QoS because the current IEEE802.11b wireless LAN standard does not provide a
mechanism for differentiating audio packets from data packets.
The following AVPP servers are available to meet customer needs:
AVPP100: Serves 80 calls simultaneously.
AVPP020: Serves 20 powered-on handsets.
AVPP010: Serves 10 powered-on handsets.
