Essential Installation Pointers
You must update the software with the most recent code.
• Visit http://www.polycom.com/usa.en/support/voice/wi-fi/spectralink_8002_wireless.html.
Additional information about updating handset code is in Chapter 3 Software License and
Protocol Management.
WMM QoS must be supported and enabled on the Wi-Fi access point(s).
• When using the SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones, WMM QoS is mandatory to ensure
voice packets are delivered in a timely fashion. The AP must have WMM enabled. If WMM is
not enabled or if the AP does not support it, the handset will stop and display an error (e.g.
No Net Found) after firmware update.
• Be aware that not all APs enable WMM by default. In fact, many APs require updated
firmware to support WMM. Follow the AP’s manufacturer instructions to ensure WMM is
supported and enabled.
Data APs may not support VoWiFi.
• The 8002 handset has been tested with many SMB access points. We have found that
VoWiFi performance varies between AP models and even firmware versions. An AP being
used for data does not guarantee satisfactory Voice over Wi-Fi performance.
• We recommend that you update to the latest AP firmware version if possible. If you
experience unexpected behaviors, try a different AP type.
A TFTP server must be on the local network with the SIP configuration files present.
• A TFTP server is a required component of the LAN. The SIP configuration files (and the
handset code) reside on the TFTP server and the handset retrieves the SIP files at every
power up. It is not recommended or supported to have the TFTP server or call-server across
a WAN.
• The handset must be configured to point to a TFTP server for the SIP configuration files.
This is accomplished by setting the handset for DHCP or by using static IP addressing. See
Chapter 2 SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephone Configuration, section Network Config.
• If the handset cannot find the files, it will stop and report an error.

SpectraLink Wireless Telephone
Overview
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones are mobile handsets for
workplace IP telephone systems. The handsets operate over an
802.11b wireless Ethernet LAN providing users a wireless voice over
IP (VoIP) extension. By seamlessly integrating into a SIP environment,
handset users are provided with high-quality mobile voice
communications throughout the workplace. The handset gives users
the freedom to roam throughout the workplace while providing all
the features and functionality of a SIP desk phone.
1
The handsets reside on the wireless LAN with other wireless devices
using direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio technology.
Access points that transmit these signals must use WMM for QoS. The
handset radio transmits and receives packets at up to 11 Mb/s.
In the SIP environment, the handsets support up to three proxy
servers. Each handset may have five line appearances and two calls
per line. If required, each handset may have multiple sets of
credentials to identify itself by current user.
The latest software versions are required to support the features
described in this document.
WMM-Compatible Access Points
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones support basic WMM™ as part
of the 802.11e protocol. The handset requires an AP that supports
WMM
The WMM specification for the SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephone
does not accommodate admission control. The AP may not use the
mechanism of admission control in the wireless environment where
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones are operating.
PN: 1725-36034-001_B.doc 11
Page 12
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones Configuration and Administration (SIP)
WMM must be enabled when configuring access points for the
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones. The handset will not work
properly if WMM is not enabled.
Refer to the access point manufacturer’s directions for instructions
on enabling WMM.
Visit the Wi-Fi Alliance website www.wi-fi.org to search for APs that
support WMM.
Security Options
The SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephone supports Wired Equivalent
Privacy (WEP) as defined by the 802.11 specification. Polycom offers
the product with both 40-bit and 128-bit encryption.
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones also support the 802.11i
protocol including Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA™ and WPA2™)—
PSK.
12 PN: 1725-36034-001_B.doc
Page 13
Quick Start Guide
1. A wireless LAN must be properly configured and operational
through the use of 802.11 wireless APs. Ensure WMM is enabled

System Components
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephone
The SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephone is a lightweight, durable
handset specifically designed for mobile workplace use within a
facility using SIP and an 802.11 wireless LAN. The handsets are to be
used on-premises; they are not cellular or satellite phones.
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones use direct-sequence spread
spectrum radio technology (DSSS) to transmit audio packets over
wireless LAN APs that support WMM.
Access points
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephone Overview
Supplied by third-party vendors, APs provide the connection
between the wired Ethernet LAN and the wireless (802.11) LAN.
Access points must be positioned in all areas where handsets will be
used. The number and placement of APs will affect the coverage area
and capacity of the wireless system.
Access points must
admission control must
support WMM, WMM must be enabled and
be disabled.
Ethernet switch
Interconnects multiple network devices, including the proxy server(s),
wired IP phones and the APs. Ethernet switches provide the highest
performance networks, which can handle combined voice and data
traffic, and are required when using the SpectraLink 8002 Wireless
Telephones.
Although a single Ethernet switch network is recommended, the
handsets can operate in larger, more complex networks, including
networks with multiple Ethernet switches, routers, VLANs and/or
multiple subnets. However, in such networks, it is possible that voice
quality may suffer. Any network that consists of more than a single
Ethernet switch should be thoroughly tested to ensure any quality
issues are detected.
Note that the SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones cannot “roam”
from one subnet to another. If routers and multiple subnets are in use,
PN: 1725-36034-001_B.doc 15
Page 16
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones Configuration and Administration (SIP)
the handsets must only use APs attached to a single subnet, or be
powered off and back on to switch to a different subnet.
SIP server
The SIP server is a component from a third-party vendor that
provides access to telephony services. The handsets can recognize up
to three distinct SIP servers in a single system.
The SIP proxy server connects to another device such as a PBX or
gateway and from there, other wired phones and the PSTN.
The SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephone has been tested and
certified with Digium® Asterisk® Business Edition server.
SIP phone
The optional wired-LAN desksets such as those provided by
Polycom.
TFTP server
A TFTP server is required in the system to distribute software to the
handsets. May be on a different subnet than the gateway and/or APs.
SIP TFTP server
A SIP TFTP server is required in the system to deliver SIP
configuration parameters to the SIP handset whenever a SIP handset
is powered-up. The location of the SIP TFTP server is separately
specified in SIP handset administration parameters (See Chapter 2
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephone Configuration, section The Admin
Menu.) Normally, the SIP TFTP server is the same as the network
TFTP server, see above.

Startup Sequence
The SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephone goes through an
initialization sequence at startup. The line icons 1-9 display and count
down as the handset steps through this sequence. This is usually very
rapid. If there is difficulty at any step that prevents initialization from
continuing, an error message will display and the related icon(s) will
stay on. Please see the error table at the back of this document for
instructions on how to handle error messages that occur during
initialization.

SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones Configuration and Administration (SIP)
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a standardized
protocol that enables clients to be dynamically assigned with various
configuration parameters, such as an IP address, subnet mask,
default gateway, and other critical network configuration information.
DHCP servers centrally manage such configuration data, and are
configured by network administrators with settings that are
appropriate for a given network environment. The handset will use
the following DHCP options if DHCP use is enabled.
Option Meaning
1 Subnet mask
3 Default gateway
6 DNS server
7 Syslog server
15 Domain name
66 TFTP server
152 SpectraLink 8000 OAI Gateway
siaddr Boot server or next server
Static IP Allows you to manually set a fixed IP Address. If selected, the
handset will prompt for the IP addresses for each configurable
network component. When entering addresses, enter the digits only
including leading zeroes, e.g. 192.168.001.002. No periods are
required.
Regardless of the mode in which the handset is operating, the
following components are required and must be configured as part of
the SIP system:
Phone IP The IP address of the handset. This is automatically
assigned if DHCP is used. If using Static IP configuration, you
must obtain a unique IP Address for each handset from your
network administrator.
TFTP Server IP The IP address of a TFTP server on your network,
which holds software images for updating the handsets and
contains the handset files. If this feature is configured (not set to
0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255) with either Static IP configuration or
using DHCP option 66 (TFTP server), or the boot server/next
server (siaddr) field, the handset will check for newer software
each time it is powered on or comes back into range of your
network. This check takes only a second and ensures that all
handsets in your network are kept up-to-date with the same
version of software.
28 PN: 1725-36034-001_B.doc
Page 29
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephone Configuration
The TFTP server and the SIP TFTP server may be the same device
with the same IP address or may be different devices with
different IP addresses.
Default Gateway and Subnet Mask Used to identify subnets, when
using a complex network, which includes routers. Both of these
must be configured either with an IP address under Static IP (not
set to 000.000.000.000 or 255.255.255.255) or with DHCP for the
handset to contact any network components on a different subnet.
If configured on the DHCP server, use option 3 for the Default
Gateway and option 1 for the Subnet Mask. Contact the network
administrator for the proper settings for the network.
Note that the wireless telephones cannot “roam” across subnets,
since they cannot change IP addresses while operational. Ensure
that all APs are attached to the same subnet for proper operation.
The handset can change subnets if DHCP is enabled and the
handset is powered-off then back on when within range of only APs
on the new subnet.
Syslog Server IP The IP address of the syslog server. See Chapter 5
Diagnostic Tools
SIP TFTP Server IP The IP address of a TFTP server on your network,
for more information.
which holds SIP configuration files. In static mode, this parameter
must be configured with an IP address. In DHCP mode, the SIP
TFTP server may be specified by defining the address on the DNS
server for the name “siptftp” If this is not defined, the address
specified in option 66 will be used.
The TFTP server and the SIP TFTP server may be the same device
with the same IP address or may be different devices with
different IP addresses.
OAI Server IP The IP address of the SpectraLink OAI Gateway. If
using Static IP configuration, this is simply the IP address of the
SpectraLink OAI Gateway. If DHCP is being used, the handset
will try the DHCP option 152.
PN: 1725-36034-001_B.doc 29
Page 30
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones Configuration and Administration (SIP)
Domain Name System (DNS), an industry-standard protocol, locates
computers on an IP-based network. IP networks rely on numberbased addresses to move information on the network. However, it is
easier to remember friendly names than number-based addresses,
so it is necessary to translate user-friendly names into addresses
that the network can recognize. The handset will use DNS to
automatically translate names into IP addresses for the TFTP server.
In DHCP mode, the SIP handset will use DNS to look up an address
for the logical name “siptftp” to locate the SIP TFTP file server. If this
logical name is undefined, then the address specified by option 66 is
used for the SIP TFTP server.
ESSID
Select the option that will enable the handset to acquire APs with the
correct ESSID (Extended Service Set ID, aka SSID) each time it is
turned on.
Note about Automatic Learn options: Broadcast ESSID must be
enabled in the APs for ESSID learning to function when multiple
ESSIDs can be seen by the handset from one location. Overlapping
wireless systems complicate the use of ESSID learning as the handset
in an overlapping area could receive conflicting signals. If this is the
situation at your site, use Static Entry or Learn Once in an area
without overlapping ESSIDs.
* Learn Once Allows the handset to scan all ESSIDs for a DHCP
server. Once either is found, the handset retains the ESSID from
whichever AP it associates with at that point. When overlapping
wireless systems exist, the Learn Once feature allows the handset
to use only the ESSID established at first learn at all subsequent
power ons. This ESSID is retained by the handset until the ESSID
option is reselected in the Admin menu, thus erasing the stored
ESSID..
Learn Always Allows the handset to automatically learn the ESSID
at each power on or loss of contact with the wireless LAN (out of
range). This may be useful if the handset will be used at more than
one site.
Static Entry If the APs do not broadcast their ESSID, or if there are
overlapping wireless systems in use at the site, enter the ESSID
manually.

6. During the second download evolution, the handset receives code
from the TFTP server for system configuration and for its own
settings. Once this second evolution is complete, the handset is
ready to use.
For future software upgrades, simply update the files that are stored
on the TFTP server. Each time the handset is powered up, it will
check with the TFTP server to ensure it has the proper software
version.

Programming the SIP Handset
Features
In order for the handset to function in the SIP environment, it
downloads two files from the root directory of the SIP TFTP server
during startup. The first file contains generic system information and
is downloaded by every handset during the power-up sequence. A
second file, unique for each handset, is then downloaded. It contains
specific information for each handset such as username, password,
and line appearances. Example files are available for download.
Both of these files must be created or the example files must be
customized according to the site’s configuration. This is usually done
by the system integrator or administrator.
4
SIP TFTP Server Configuration Files
The two file types, generic and specific, are identical in format. Any or
all of the configuration information can be contained in either file.
Any information in the specific file that conflicts with the information
in the generic file will take precedence over that in the generic file.
Authentication information will be accepted from both files. For ease
of administration, it is recommended both file types be utilized and
that common settings be placed in the generic file..
Guidelines
• The files are in plain text, US-ASCII. The general form of the
configuration file data is “parameter = value.”
• The generic filename must be SIP_allusers.cfg.
• Each specific filename must have the form of SIP_[username].cfg
where [username] is as assigned to each individual user by the
system administrator (e.g. sip_3001.cfg). See
Chapter 2
section The Admin Menu.

SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones Configuration and Administration (SIP)
• Username requirements are: alphanumeric, no spaces, no
punctuation, case is ignored, 1-16 characters.
• The generic file should contain proxy server information and
other SIP system data.
• The specific file should contain data specific to each user such as
authentication credentials and line appearance data.
• Some parameter lines accept more than one value, separated by a
colon or semicolon character as defined in the following table.
• Any line that begins with a pound sign (#) is ignored.
• In general space characters are ignored. Space characters may be
included in string values by replacing the space with “%20.”
• If necessary, other special characters may be included by using a
hexadecimal representation: (%hh) where hh is the representation
of the character.
• The lines in the .cfg file may appear in any order although
maintenance may be simplified by preserving the order in the
supplied example file.
Create or modify each of the files according to the following
instructions.
The generic file (sip_allusers.cfg)
The generic configuration file provides system information common
to all handsets.
The handset-specific files (e.g. sip_3001.cfg)
The handset-specific configuration file provides specific information
for the handset to identify itself and communicate to other phones.
Each handset must have its own file with a unique filename. You may
use the same parameters as the generic file when programming the
handset files if you wish to override a common setting.
You must configure a unique handset file for each handset being
deployed. Typically each of these files is named with the extension
number or name of the person assigned the handset. For example
John Doe’s handset could have a handset filename of
sip_JohnDoe.cfg.

When active, the handset screen has six rows that display information
in this format:
5
Row # Information provided
1 Icons
2 Line number
3 Instructions
4 Call one info
5 Call two info or dial aids
6 Softkeys
Row 1 displays signal, battery, voicemail and line number icons. Row
2 displays the line number of the line for which information is being
displayed. Row 3 displays instructions where needed. Two calls are
permitted on each line. Row 4 displays information for call one and
row 5 displays information for call two. Row 5 is also used to provide
dialing aid for call one. Row 6 displays available softkeys.
The SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones support a two to four line
display of up to 19 alphanumeric characters. Display information
provided by the proxy server when the handset is off-hook, such as
calling party identification, will be processed and put on the handset
display.
Line indicators
The line indicators on the handset will convert to a solid or flashing
number to indicate the line is in use or ringing. The number or text

Handset icons
Indicator Function
The signal-strength icon indicates the strength of the signal from the AP and can
assist the user in determining if the handset is moving out-of-range of that AP.
Locked
[No Service
message]
The voicemail icon is activated when a new voicemail message is received if the
feature is supported by the proxy server.
The battery icon indicates the amount of charge remaining in the Battery Pack.
When only one bar remains, the Battery Pack should be charged.
Locked indicates that the keypad is locked to prevent accidental activation. Use
the Unlk softkey plus the # key to unlock it.
If warning tones are not disabled, a falling tone alarm will sound and a
descriptive message displays when the handset cannot receive or place calls.
You may be outside of the covered area. Walk back into the covered area. The
in-service rising tone indicates service is reestablished.
The download icon indicates that the handset is downloading code. This icon
only appears while the handset is running the over-the-air downloader. It
appears to the right of the signal strength icon in the same location as the
voicemail icon.
Signal strength
The signal-strength icon indicates the strength of the signal from the
AP and can assist the user in determining if the handset is moving out
of range. It is always present on the display in the upper left corner.
Battery charge
The battery icon indicates the amount of charge remaining in the
Battery Pack. There are three levels and when only one level remains,
the Battery Pack needs to be charged. It is always present on the
display in the upper right corner.
Voicemail
The voicemail icon is activated whenever any of the specified mail
subscribers/notifiers (see SIP configuration files) sends notification to
the handset that new messages are available. By activating the
menu, and observing which lines are flagged with a plus (+) sign, the
user can determine which proxy has outstanding mail.
The system administrator defines access to voicemail.

Standby mode (on-hook)
In standby mode, the handset is waiting for an incoming call or for
the user to place an outgoing call. The extension number is shown on
the display and there is no dial tone. In this mode, the handset is
conserving battery power and wireless LAN bandwidth.
By default, the username assigned to line 1 is displayed on the
standby screen.
Active mode (off-hook)
When an incoming call occurs, the handset will ring, and the handset
enters the active mode. The handset will ring according to user
preference as specified in the standby menus. The ringing can be
silenced by pressing the
call, press the
Rej softkey. The SIP server (if present) will redirect the
call as configured by the system administrator, often to voicemail.

Messaging mode
If text messaging functions have been programmed, as in a nurse call
system, the handset is able to receive text messages. While these
messages are being accessed, the handset is in messaging mode.
Incoming calls will ring with the second call ringing sound.
Messaging mode uses more battery power than standby mode, but
less than Active mode.
Softkeys
Softkey functions change as the state of the handset changes. Softkeys
are displayed only when they are available to be activated. Softkeys
make common PBX functions available on the handset. For example, a
call may be placed on hold, the handset may be muted, and a second
line may be activated for an outgoing call or a second call on the same
line may be answered. Calls may also be transferred to another
number, either as a consulted transfer or without consult. Other
handset features (DND, Transfer) may be accessed by pressing the
FCN key.

Diagnostic Tools
Run Site Survey, Diagnostics Mode and Syslog Mode are three diagnostic
tools provided to assist the WLAN administrator in evaluating the
functioning of the handset and the system surrounding it. Diagnostic
tools are enabled in the Admin menu.
Site Survey
Site survey can be used to evaluate the facility coverage before
certifying that an installation is complete. It can also be used at any
time to evaluate coverage by testing signal strength, to gain
information about an AP, and to scan an area to look for all APs
regardless of ESSID. The information available through the site
survey includes:

• ESSID
• Beacon Interval
• Information regarding support of 802.11d, 802.11g, 802.11h, and
other 802.11 amendment standards as required.
• Current security configuration

Solving coverage issues
Coverage issues are best resolved by adding and/or relocating APs.
Overlap issues may be resolved by reassigning channels to the APs or
by relocating the APs. See Chapter 10 Troubleshooting under Access
Point Problems for more information.
Diagnostics Mode
The Diagnostics Mode is used to evaluate the overall quality of the link
between the handset, AP, and infrastructure side equipment, such as

Syslog Mode
A syslog server must be present on the network in order for the
handset to send the log messages and have them saved. The syslog
server will be found with DHCP option 7 if the handset is using
DHCP. If static addresses are configured, the syslog server’s IP
address can be configured statically in the Admin menu.
If the syslog server address is blank (000.000.000.000 or
255.255.255.255), or the handset is using DHCP and no option 7 is
received from the DHCP server, the handset will not send any syslog
messages.
Admin menu options:
• *Disabled turns syslog off. (default)
• Errors causes the handset to log only events that are considered to
be an error (see below).
• Events logs all errors plus also some other interesting events (see
below).
• Full logs all the above plus a running stream of other quality
information (see below).

Certifying the Installation
Prior to determining that an installation is complete, test the handsets
following the sequence given in Chapter 6 Testing a Handset and
conduct a
Chapter 7 Diagnostic Tools.
The installation may need some adjustments. Note any areas where
coverage is conflicting or inadequate. Note any system difficulties and
work with your wireless LAN and/or LAN system administrator to
determine the cause and possible remedy. See Chapter 10
Troubleshooting for clues to possible sources of difficulties. If any
adjustments are made to the system, re-test the device in the same
vicinity to determine if the difficulty is resolved.
Site Survey mode test according to the directions given in
8
The installer should not leave the site before performing installation
verification.
These tests must be performed in typical operating conditions,
especially if heavy loads occur. Testing sequence and procedure is
different for every installation. Generally, you should organize the
test according to area and volume, placing numerous calls to others
who can listen while you perform coverage tests. Note any areas with
excessive static or clarity problems and report it to a Polycom service
engineer.
The coverage test will also require you to put the handset in
mode and walk the entire coverage area to verify all APs.
Conducting a site survey
Conduct a site survey of the installation, by walking the site looking
for interfering 802.11 systems, adequate coverage and channel
assignment, and correct AP configuration.
1. Referring to
Any/Smry ESSID mode. Walk throughout the site checking for any
expected APs or other ESSIDs.

checking that every location has adequate coverage (there should
Page 84
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones Configuration and Administration (SIP)
be at least one AP stronger than -60 dBm in all areas for 11mb/s
operation) and has good channel allocation. (At any point, the
strongest AP shown should be on a different channel than the next
best choice.)
3. Finally, use the single AP (
MyID/Detl) display to check each AP, to
ensure it is configured for the proper data rates, beacon interval,
802.11 options enabled, QoS method, and security method.
Make any necessary adjustments to AP locations and configurations
and repeat steps 1 through 3 until the site survey shows adequate
coverage and correct configuration at every location.
The installation is not complete until these certification steps have
been performed. Do not hand out handsets at a site that has not been
certified.

Software Maintenance
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones use proprietary software
programs written and maintained by Polycom Corporation. The
software versions that are running on the handsets can be displayed
during power on by holding down the
Polycom Customer Service or an authorized dealer will provide
information about software updates and how to obtain the software
(for example, downloading from a website).
Upgrading handsets
9
END key.
After software updates are obtained from Polycom, they must be
transferred to the appropriate location in the LAN to update the code
used by the handsets.
SpectraLink 8002 Wireless Telephones allow over-the-air transfer of
software updates from the designated TFTP server to the handsets.
The downloader function in the handset checks its software version
every time the handset is turned on. If there is any discrepancy the
handset immediately begins to download the update.
Normal download messages
When the handset is powered on, it displays a series of messages
indicating that it is searching for new software, checking the versions,
and downloading. The normal message progression is:

Access point problems
Most, but not all, handset audio problems have to do with AP range,
positioning, and capacity. Performing a site survey as described in
this document can isolate the AP causing these types of problems. If
the handset itself is suspected, conduct a parallel site survey with a
handset that is known to be properly functioning.
In range/out-of-range
Service will be disrupted if a user moves outside the area covered by
the wireless LAN APs. Service is restored if the user moves back
within range. If a call drops because a user moves out-of-range, the
handset may be able to recover the call if the user moves back into
range within a few seconds.
Capacity
Basic WMM does not provide the capability of regulating capacity on
an AP. If capacity issues are a concern, please consult your service
representative.

Transmission obstructions
Prior to system installation, the best location for APs for optimum
transmission coverage should have been determined. However, small
pockets of obstruction may still be present, or obstructions may be
introduced into the facility after system installation. This loss of
service can be restored by moving out of the obstructed area or by
adding/rearranging APs.
Configuration problems
Certain problems are associated with improper configuration of either
the SIP system or the handset.
Configuration problems are generally corrected by changing the
configuration on the SIP system or on the handset. There may also be
incorrect programming of the AP. See the manufacturer’s instructions
for the AP in use at the site.
