The KWS6000 controls the wireless infrastructure. It manages media
resources, base stations, repeaters and the IP interface to the call handler.
The communication protocol between the KWS6000 and the call handler is SIP
A KWS6000 is installed directly on the LAN and must be managed as part of
the corporate network.
For more information about the KWS6000, refer to “Deploying KIRK Wireless
Server 6000” on page 3-1, “Installing KIRK Wireless Server 6000 and KIRK
Media Resource” on page 4-1 and “Configuring KIRK Wireless Server 6000”
on page 10-1.
The wireless solution supports two wireless bands, allowing operation in
various countries and regions. Supported wireless bands are:
•ETSI DECT (1880-1900 Mhz), referred to as DECT
•USA DECT (1920-1930 Mhz), referred to as 1G9
The wireless band used by a KWS6000 solution is determined by the base
stations and handsets ordered with the solution.
KIRK Media Resource
The media resource performs media conversion between the call handler and
the KWS6000 and is the media termination point for incoming and outgoing
calls.
A maximum of 32 media resources can be added to KWS6000. Each media
resource adds 32 voice channels to the system. It furthermore handles the
media stream from the SIP server and voice is thus distributed from the KIRK
Media Resource to the KIRK IP Base Station. Adding 32 media resources
makes it possible to have 1024 calls at the same time.
Note
KWS6000 contains one media resource.
2–3
KIRK Wireless Server 6000 Installation and Configuration Guide
Codec Module
It is possible to install a Codec Module in the media resource. The Codec
Module adds a number of codecs, allowing the wireless server to interface to
G.729A/G.723.1 and other codec standards.
Note
KIRK Base Station
When installing a Codec Module, the media resource only adds 24 voice
channels to the system. Adding 32 media resources with codec modules
makes it possible to have 768 calls at the same time.
For more information about media resources, refer to “Installing KIRK
Wireless Server 6000 and KIRK Media Resource” on page 4-1 and
“Configuring KIRK Media Resources” on page 11-1.
For more information about installing the Codec Module, refer to “Installing
KIRK Codec Module” on page 5-1.
The base stations are positioned in the area to send and receive calls between
the wireless server and the handset. The base station contains internal
antennas and handles 11 speech channels simultaneously. A base station is
able to synchronize with other base stations. When the base station is
synchronized with other base stations, a person speaking in a handset can
move between base stations without any interference.
Transmission length is up to 100 meters/329 feet according to IEEE 802.3u on
a twisted pair cable, e.g. cat.5e. The base station is a class 1 PoE device (802.3af)
and must be powered accordingly (maximum power supply consumption
3.0W according to PoE 802.3af). The radius coverage of the base station is up
to 90 meters/295 feet indoor and up to 300 meters/984 feet outdoor, with a
handset in line-of-sight.
2–4
Coverage area decreases depending on choice of building materials and
obstructive elements. To ensure proper coverage in the areas required, it is
necessary to conduct a site survey and deployment by certified technicians.
For more information about deployment, refer to the Deployment Guide
accompanying the Deployment Kit.
For more information about the base station, refer to “Installing KIRK Base
Station” on page 6-1 and “Configuring KIRK Base Station” on page 12-1.
KIRK Repeater
Introduction to KIRK Wireless Server 6000
The repeater can be used to extend the coverage area in a wireless solution.
Depending on the repeater type, it can be mounted either on the wall or on the
ceiling. The wireless repeater is used in areas with limited voice traffic, where
cabling is difficult. The repeater does not increase the number of traffic
channels, but increases the coverage area established with the base station. Up
to three repeaters can be placed in cascade formation directing coverage in a
certain direction.
The base station can support up to 6 repeaters.
For more information about the repeater, refer to “Installing KIRK Repeater”
on page 7-1.
2–5
KIRK Wireless Server 6000 Installation and Configuration Guide
KIRK Handset
The handset is a lightweight, ergonomically designed wireless unit that
includes an LCD display and keypad.
The handset is a portable unit compatible with DECT GAP standard.
The handset is designed to provide the subscriber with most of the features
available for a wired phone, in addition to its roaming and handover
capabilities.
The KWS6000 supports up to 4096 registered handsets.
For more information about the handset, refer to “Preparing KIRK Handset for
Use” on page 8-1, “KIRK Handset Registration and Subscription” on page 13-1
and “KIRK Handset Management” on page 14-1.
Auto Login and Handover
Auto login refers to the ability to log on to more than one system, enabling you
to use the same handset on up to 10 different systems. If a handset is
subscribed to two or more systems, you can use Auto Login type A or Auto
Login type B to change between the systems automatically:
•Auto Login type A is used if a handset is subscribed to two or more
systems. Auto Login A should only be used in separate systems without
overlaps.
•Auto Login type B is used if a handset is subscribed to two systems only.
Auto Login B can be used in separate systems which are overlapping each
other.
Note
Auto Login type B is only supported in 4020/4040/4080 Handsets.
For more information about Auto Login, refer to “Subscribing KIRK
Handsets” on page 13-3.
Handover refers to the ability to move between the coverage areas of different
radio units on the same system while talking, without interruptions in the
conversation.
KIRK SIO Application Interface
The SIO Application Interface is a communication platform allowing text
messaging between the wireless server and a handset. With the SIO API,
which is a fundamental part of all our solutions, and a third party application
program, the customer is offered a wide range of usage opportunities in a
variety of vertical markets.

2–10
Installation Prerequisites
Introduction to KIRK Wireless Server 6000
Note
Ensure that a site survey and deployment have been conducted and that the
installer has access to these plans before proceeding any further. For more
information about deployment, refer to “Deploying KIRK Wireless Server
6000” on page 3-1.
Before you start the installation you need to find the following information
and perform the following tasks:
•ARI codes (serial numbers) for the KWS6000 (see label on the rear of the
KWS unit)
•Serial numbers for handsets. Refer to “Retrieving the Serial Number of the
KIRK Handset” on page 8-10.
•AC codes (authentication codes)
The AC is a customer-defined optional subscription pin code of a
maximum of eight digits for the individual handset. The AC can be used
when connecting the handset to the KWS.
•Repeaters:
Mark each repeater with the number of the related base station. This way
you can easily configure the system on site.
•Handsets:
To use the handsets, you must first install the radio infrastructure, e.g.
base stations and repeaters to transmit and receive radio signals to and
from the handsets. There are no direct connections between the handset
and the system. For more information about base station and repeater
installation, refer to “Installing KIRK Base Station” on page 6-1 and
“Installing KIRK Repeater” on page 7-1.
•Charging battery
When charging the handset battery for the first time, leave the handset in
the charger for 14 - 16 hours to ensure that the battery is fully charged and
the handset ready for use. Refer to “Charging KIRK Handsets” on
page 8-6.

KIRK Wireless Server 6000 Installation and Configuration Guide
2–12
Deploying KIRK Wireless Server
6000
Before you install the KWS6000 solution, it is necessary to perform a complete
site survey and determine the exact location of KWS6000, base stations,
repeaters and number of handsets required.
A well planned installation should start with an RF coverage site survey. A site
survey is designed to determine the optimal location for base stations and
repeaters and the amount of wireless voice traffic to be supported by the
installation (i.e., how many handsets must maintain voice conversations at the
same time, in any given area).
3
Due to the unexpected nature of RF propagation in an indoor environment, an
actual on-site test must be performed before the installation is complete. While
an extensive guide to effective RF coverage planning is outside the scope of
this manual, the following points should be taken into consideration when
planning the site, prior to base station and repeater installation:
•The base station/repeater provides typical RF coverage of up to 50
meters/164 feet in a typical indoor office environment and up 300
meters/984 feet in an open area (line-of-sight), extending in all directions
from the base station/repeater. The exact coverage range depends on the
building architecture, wall material and surroundings.
•The wireless solution can support a maximum of 4096 handsets.
•The wireless solution supports a maximum of 255 base stations.
•Handset handover: handsets can move between coverage areas of base
stations and repeaters while receiving continuous service and maintaining
conversations in progress.
•For efficient handover of conversations between base stations, deploy base
stations with wide overlap between them (i.e., plan for some areas to be
covered by more than one base station). Overlaps are necessary to
maintain seamless handover and to establish synchronization chains. A
good example may be a cafeteria during lunch hour where temporary
3–1
KIRK Wireless Server 6000 Installation and Configuration Guide
concentrations of handsets may occur. The overlap carries the excess call
load to adjacent base station to provide uninterrupted services to
subscribers.
•Typically, installations such as office buildings, hotels and hospitals
should be equipped with base stations/repeaters on several floors to
create uniform and complete RF coverage.
•Open areas can be covered with a sparse network of base stations. In such
applications, the base stations/repeaters cover an extended range due to
the extended line-of-sight RF propagation capability.
•Ensure that there is not a residential DECT system (home DECT) on the
site.
This section provides information about:
•“Recommendations for KIRK Base Station/KIRK Repeater Placement” on
page 3-2
•“Deployment of a KIRK Wireless Server 6000 Multi-Cell” on page 3-3
Recommendations for KIRK Base Station/KIRK Repeater
Placement
•In large halls, the base station/repeater (wall) should be installed
vertically in the middle of the space below the drop ceiling.
•In corridors, the base station/repeater (wall) should be installed vertically
preferably at corridor intersections where propagation patterns follow the
corridor patterns. The base station/repeater should point towards the
corridor and preferably in the middle height between the floor and the
actual ceiling. In case there are high objects in the area, the base
station/repeater (wall) should be installed above those objects but still
kept distant from the ceiling.
•The repeater (ceiling) should be installed in the middle of corridors and
small rooms.
•In multi-story buildings, base stations/repeaters may be installed on
opposite sides of the floors to take advantage of the floor-to-floor
coverage. The coverage design cannot rely entirely on floor-to-floor
propagation; each case must be verified due to variations in local
attenuation patterns.
•If the building contains a central open space area with windows to the
other areas, base stations/repeaters may be installed in this open space to
provide a good coverage for the rooms in the inner circle on all floors (e.g.
hotels).
3–2
Deploying KIRK Wireless Server 6000
•If a base station/repeater (wall) hangs vertically on a wall, the RF coverage
in front of the base stations/repeaters is twice as large as the coverage at
the rear. When a base station/repeater is installed on the outside of an
outer wall, the RF coverage behind it is strongly attenuated by the wall.
•Base stations/repeaters should not be installed near large metallic objects.
•Reinforced concrete structures have a high attenuation factor inside the
building. They decrease the RF coverage range of the base
stations/repeaters and therefore requires a higher number of base
stations/repeaters in the building. Lighter types of construction require
fewer base stations since attenuation figures are considerably lower.

Deployment of a KIRK Wireless Server 6000 Multi-Cell
Sync over Air
Note
Note
This section only contains deployment information specific to the
KWS6000. For more information about deployment in general, refer to the
Deployment Guide accompanying the Deployment Kit. The Deployment
Guide provides instructions on how to use the Deployment Kit to
determine the most suitable locations for the different radio units.
As a user moves from one base station radio coverage area to another, the call
must be handed over to the next radio unit. To create handover between radio
units it is necessary to establish synchronization chains. For more information
about synchronization chains, refer to “Examples of Synchronization Chains”
on page 3-4. If the synchronization between radio units is lost, then handover
is not possible and ongoing calls will be terminated.
Each base station must be placed within the radio coverage area of at least
one other base station or repeater (radio units).
3–3
KIRK Wireless Server 6000 Installation and Configuration Guide
Examples of Synchronization Chains
Certain rules must be taken into consideration when establishing
synchronazation chains:
•The distance over which synchronization can take place is limited to a
distance similar to a loss of max. 25 dB. If the loss of signal is higher than
25 dB, there is no guarantee that synchronization is stable.
Note
Note
Note
It is recommended that a base station synchronizes with at least two other
radio units, that an alternative sync way is defined to ensure system
redundancy. If the primary sync way is not working, then the alternative
sync way takes over and the synchronization chain is not broken.
Synchronization chains for the KWS6000 Solution can be made with base
stations and repeaters.
As you can only configure a repeater to synchronize on one radio ID, it is
not possible to define alternative sync ways for repeaters.
As the KWS6000 uses the DECT interface to synchronize on, one base station
is configured as the Sync Master.
This section provides information about:
•“Sync Chain With One Sync Master (Primary Sync Ways)” on page 3-5
•“Sync Chain With Alternative Sync Ways” on page 3-6
•“Sync Chain With and Without Alternative Sync Ways” on page 3-9

KIRK Wireless Server 6000 Installation and Configuration Guide
Base Stations.The repeaters are mainly used in areas with limited traffic. The
KIRK Repeater is available with either 2 or 4 voice channels. It is wireless and
does not need physical connection to the KIRK Wireless Server, making it very
easy to install. The repeaters can be supplied with an external antenna making
it possible to create radio coverage in a remote area without cabling to the rest
of the installation.
Note
The repeater is also termed by some manufacturers as the WRFP (Wireless
Radio Fixed Part).
The RF communication is provided according to the band standard at the site:
•Repeater - DECT provides four RF channels of 1.88 GHz, DECT standard,

•Avoid installing repeaters on large concrete or marble columns because
these columns affect radio coverage. If possible, place the base station a
minimum of one meter/3.3 feet from these types of columns.
•Do not install a repeater with the antenna housings near metal objects. Be
careful not to damage existing wiring or panels.
•Do not position repeaters in ducts, plenums or hollow spaces used to
transport environmental air except where the duct, plenum or hollow
space is created by a suspended ceiling having lay-in panels.
•Keep the repeater away from steel constructions.
•Do not position repeaters directly on metallic surfaces. If possible, place
the base station a minimum of one meter/3.3 feet from these types of
surfaces.
Note
Note
•Do not position repeaters behind furniture.
•Only position repeaters where the signal is needed.
•The installation area must be clean, free of traffic and excess dust, dry, and
well ventilated.
•The installation area must be within the temperature ranges of 10°C and
40°C/50°F and 104°F.
•The installation area must be between 20% and 80% non-condensing
relative humidity.
The repeater does not add channels, it only adds additional coverage area.
The repeater can be registered on the system 1) when placed within the coverage
area of a base station 2) when placed within the coverage area of an
already-installed repeater or 3) when placed outside the coverage area using an
external antenna.
For best RF coverage, the repeater must be mounted vertically on walls. The
antennas must always be kept perpendicular to the floor.

3Connect the serial cable to the splitter and Com port of your computer.
The repeater is now ready for programming via the ServiceTool.
Note: The above mentioned order of the set up (point 1, 2 and 3) is
important.
Programming the KIRK Repeater with the ServiceTool
The ServiceTool is the tool you access from your desktop and use for repeater
programming, handset adjustment and software download to the handset and
repeater.
The ServiceTool identifies the type of repeater, and with this software it is
possible to program the KIRK Repeater to connect to the KIRK DECT Radio
Infrastructure solutions.
Before you start programming the repeater, ensure that the repeater is
connected to the computer and the mains.
In a single cell solution the numbers assigned to the repeaters must be between
2 and 7. The number of the base station is default set to 1.
In a multi cell solution, the numbering of the base stations and repeaters has to
follow the numbering in the table below.

Use of KIRK Repeater With External Antenna
If radio coverage between a base station and a repeater is not needed, it is
possible to synchronize between the radio units using a repeater with external
antenna.
Figure 7-5Use of Repeaters
Use of KIRK Repeaters
without External Antenna
Installing KIRK Repeater
The distance from the repeaters without external antenna to the base station
must correspond to a RSSI loss of maximum 25dB.
Be aware that inside the area named “radio link” there is no radio coverage,
and therefore a wireless handset cannot be used in this area.
The distance between the base station and the repeater with external antenna
depends on the type of antenna used as well as on the signal attenuation
created by surroundings such as buildings, trees, etc.
Synchronization Ways
The repeater with external antenna, 4 channels, can be programmed to obtain
synchronization on two radio units (base station, wireless server or repeater).
If a situation occurs where the primary sync for some reason breaks down, the
repeater will obtain sync on the alternative sync.
Base Station
Radio Link
