Known Limitations

Voice quality may be impaired in an environment with heavy
wireless TCP traffic, such as FTP data transfers.

Access Point Capacity and Positioning

Please refer to the Polycom Deploying Enterprise-Grade Wi-Fi Telephony

white paper. This document covers the security, coverage, capacity
and QoS considerations necessary for ensuring excellent voice quality
with enterprise Wi-Fi networks.

For more detailed information on wireless LAN layout, network
infrastructure, QoS, security and subnets, please see the Best Practices

Guide for Deploying SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless Telephones. This

document identifies issues and solutions based on Polycom’s
extensive experience in enterprise-class Wi-Fi telephony, and
provides recommendations for ensuring that a network environment
is adequately optimized for use with SpectraLink 8020/8030 Wireless
Telephones.
