Overview
The NetLink e340/h340/i640 Wireless Telephone is a mobile handset for workplace
IP telephone systems. NetLink Wireless Telephones operate over an 802.11b
wireless Ethernet LAN providing users a wireless voice over IP (VoIP) extension. By
seamlessly integrating with the Mitel IP telephony system, NetLink Wireless
Telephone users are provided with high-quality mobile voice communications
throughout the workplace. The NetLink Wireless Telephone gives users the freedom
to roam throughout the workplace while providing all the features and functionality
of an IP desk phone.
The NetLink e340/h340/i640 Wireless Telephone provides a wireless extension to
the Mitel Networks 3300 and SX-200 ICP VoIP solutions. The NetLink Wireless
Telephone supports the MiNET protocol, a proprietary protocol developed by Mitel
Networks for communication between a Mitel Networks IP phone and a Mitel
Networks PBX.
The NetLink Wireless Telephones reside on the wireless LAN with other wireless
devices using Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) radio technology. The
handset radio transmits and receives packets at up to 11Mb/s.
2.1 QoS and Security
The NetLink SVP Server is an Ethernet LAN device that works with the access
points (APs) 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. See the
NetLink SVP Server: Installation, Configuration and
Administration
document for detailed information about this device.
The NetLink e340/h340/i640 Wireless Telephone supports Wired Equivalent
Privacy (WEP) as defined by the 802.11 specification. SpectraLink offers the product
with both 40-bit and 128-bit encryption.
NetLink Wireless Telephones support basic WMM™ (Wi-Fi Multimedia) if also
supported by the AP as part of the 802.11e protocol. If the AP supports WMM, the
handset automatically discovers and uses it. WMM does not replace the NetLink
SVP Server.
NetLink Wireless Telephones also support the 802.11i protocol including Wi-Fi
Protected Access (WPA™ and WPA2™)—PSK. As vendors introduce access points
that are eligible to become Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ for WPA-PSK and/or WPA2-
PSK, SpectraLink will determine their compatibility with the NetLink Wireless
Telephones and include them on the
NetLink Wireless Telephone Access Point
Compatibility Table
