About DECT

DECT stands for Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications.
DECT is the standard for short-range cordless communications developed by the European Tele­communications Standards Institute (ETSI): ETSI EN 300 175-1.
DECT is used in all countries in Europe and in most of Asia, Australia, South-America and North America.
DECT is a low power technology and can be used in radio sensitive environments. Both handsets and base stations have an average power output of 10mW, but can deliver a burst power output of 250mW.
Note:
The entire Spectralink 7000 Portfolio is built on DECT technology.

DECT Frequency Bands

The following frequency bands are dedicated to DECT:
l EMEA, Australia & New Zealand: 1G8: 1880 – 1900 MHz
l South America: 1G9: 1910 – 1930 MHz
l USA & Canada: 1G9: 1920 – 1930 MHz (DECT 6.0)
Note:
Because DECT has its own dedicated frequency band, it is not subject to interference from other radio transmitters such as GSM phones, Bluetooth, microwave ovens and widely used Wi-Fi equipment.

SpectralinkIP-DECT Server 200/400/6500 Installation and Configuration Guide

Description - Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500

The Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500 controls the wireless infrastructure. It manages Spectralink DECTMedia Resources, Spectralink IP-DECT Base Stations and the IP interface to the call hand­ler.
The communication protocol between the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500 and the call handler is a SIP line interface.
A Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500 is installed directly on the LAN and must be managed as part of the corporate network.
The Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500 is a multi cell solution in a 19” cabinet. It is shipped from the factory as an Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500 with one Ethernet port and 32 on-board speech channels, which allows for up to 32 full duplex simultaneous media streams (RTP streams) depend­ing on the codec being used. There is no radio part in the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500. This means that at least one Spectralink IP-DECT Base Station must be part of the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500 solution.
Note:
The Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500 is extremely scalable and is very easy to scale in order to meet customer demands. If it is upgraded to its full potential via licenses, it sup­ports up to 4096 registered handsets and with a maximum of 32 Spectralink DECTMedia Resources, it supports up to 1024 simultaneous calls. For more inform­ation, see "Licenses for Spectralink IP-DECT Server 400/6500" on page39.

SpectralinkIP-DECT Server 200/400/6500 Installation and Configuration Guide
Description - Spectralink DECTMedia Resource
The Spectralink DECTMedia Resource is a print board that is placed within the same rack next to the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500 board. Up to 2 Spectralink DECTMedia Resources can be placed in the same rack that houses the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500 board.
The Spectralink DECTMedia Resource performs media conversion between the call handler and the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500 and is the media termination point for incoming and outgoing calls. Each Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500 contains one built in media resource. The Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500 can support a total of 32 Spectralink DECTMedia Resources.
Each Spectralink DECTMedia Resource adds 32 voice channels. The maximum number of sim­ultaneous calls for a fully loaded system is 1024 calls at the same time. Depending on codec choice, the number of voice channels per Media Resource card can vary from 12 - 32.
G.726 allows for 32 duplex speech channels as this codec requires no processing and is routed dir­ectly to the Spectralink IP-DECT Base Station. Other codecs such as G.711 or G.729 must be con­verted to G.726 before routed further on to the Spectralink IP-DECT Base Station and this affects the total number of available speech channels on the Spectralink DECTMedia Resource, lowering the number of speech channels down to 12 if all calls utilize the G.729 codec.
The Spectralink DECTMedia Resource connects directly with the LAN and must operate in con­junction with the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500. If using clusters, the Spectralink DECTMedia Resources can be placed at different locations.
The Spectralink DECTMedia Resource contains no radio parts. It ships from the factory configured for DHCP. Should it enter an unrecoverable state, it can be reset to factory default settings when the reset button is pressed and held for more than 5 seconds.

Description - Spectralink DECT Repeater

The Spectralink DECT Repeater is a building block to be used to extend the coverage area in a wire­less Spectralink DECT solution. The repeater does not increase the number of traffic channels, how­ever, it provides a larger physical spreading of the traffic channels and thereby increases the coverage area established with the Spectralink IP-DECT/DECT Base Stations/Spectralink IP­DECT Servers 200/400.

SpectralinkIP-DECT Server 200/400/6500 Installation and Configuration Guide
Note:
Both the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 200 and Spectralink IP-DECT Server 400 are Spectralink IP-DECT Servers with a built-in Spectralink IP-DECT Base Station.
The repeaters are mainly used in areas with limited traffic. The Spectralink DECT Repeater is avail­able with either 2 or 4 voice channels. It is wireless and does not need physical connection to the Spectralink IP-DECT/DECT 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.
The base station/server 200/400 can support up to 3 repeaters.

Description - External Antenna

Spectralink IP-DECT Base Stations, Spectralink IP-DECT Server 200/400 and Spectralink DECT Repeaters can be equipped with an external antenna using a specially designed connection cable between the external antenna and the host.
The external antenna is highly directional and used with Spectralink IP-DECT Base Stations or the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 200/400 for added coverage in complex environments or to link up with remote areas. External antennas can also be used with Spectralink DECT Repeaters to link up with remote areas where wiring between the server and base station is difficult or impossible.
Note:
When used with a Spectralink IP-DECT Server 200/400 or Spectralink IP-DECT Base Station, the external antenna always use the same channel as the host and provides full coverage for handsets.
When used with a Spectralink DECT Repeater, the external antenna always use a chan­nel different from the host and only provides a link to the main coverage area – no speech coverage.
The range of the host (on base station and server) is reduced when the external antenna is connected.
For more information about using the external antenna to add coverage in complex environments or to link up with remote areas, see "Using the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 200/400 and Spectralink
IP-DECT Base Station With ExternalAntenna" on page78.

System Capacity Overview

Below you will find an overview of the system capacity of the Spectralink IP-DECT Server:

System Capacity - Servers

System Capacity - Media Resources

* The available number of channels on a media resource depends on the codec type of the active calls. Calls utilizing the G.726 codec uses approximately 2% of the available resources, calls utilizing the G.711 codec uses approximately 3%, and calls utilizing the G.729 codec uses approximately 8%. E.g.: With 5 active G.729 calls and 10 active G.711 calls, the total resource utilization will be approx­imately 70%.

Installation Prerequisites

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, see the Synchronization and Deployment Guide for the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 400/6500 or theIP-DECT Server 200 Deployment and Installation Configuration Guidedepending on your installation.
Before you start the installation, you need to find the following information and perform the following tasks:
l ARI for the Spectralink IP-DECT Server (see label on the rear of the server unit)
For more information, see "Identifying ARI on Spectralink IP-DECT Server" on the next page.
l Serial numbers for handsets.
For more information, see "Identifying IPEI on Spectralink Handset" on the next page.
l AC (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 server.
l Repeaters:
Mark each repeater with the number of the related base station (or Spectralink IP-DECT Server 200/400). This way you can easily configure the system on site.
l 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.
l 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. For more information about the handset, refer to the user guide available online at http://sup-
port.spectralink.com/products.

About ARI and IPEI Identification

All Spectralink DECT Handsets and all Spectralink IP-DECT Servers have unique identification num­bers.
This is needed in order for:
l The handsets to know which Spectralink IP-DECT Server installation they belong to.
l The Spectralink IP-DECT Server to know which handsets that are subscribed to it.
A handset uses an International Portable Equipment Identifier, also called IPEI number, for handset identification and subscription to a Spectralink IP-DECT Server.
A Spectralink IP-DECT Server uses an Access Right Identity number, also called ARI number, for server identification.
When an IPEI number of a handset is linked to a Spectralink IP-DECT Server, the handset is sub­scribed. There is a record in the Spectralink IP-DECT Server holding information about all the hand­sets being subscribed to it. This record is subdivided in to User profiles, often referred to as just a User. Each User must hold information about extension number, the handset’s IPEI number, and its registration credentials for the PBX. This information is used to link the subscribed handset to the PBX which is the same as a line registration. A Users profile holds subscription data and registration data. For more information, see "Registering Users and Subscribing Spectralink DECT Handsets"
on page139.

Identifying IPEI on Spectralink Handset

You can identify the unique IPEI number on a handset in two ways:
l From the handset: Menu > Status > General
l From label by removing the battery cover and battery
For more information about the handset, refer to the user guide available online at http://sup-
port.spectralink.com/products.

Identifying ARI on Spectralink IP-DECT Server

You can identify the unique ARI number on the server in the following ways:
l Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500: See label on the bottom of the server.
l Spectralink IP-DECT Server 200/400: See label on the rear side of the server.
l Spectralink IP-DECT Server 200/400/6500: From the web based Administration Page >
Status > Wireless Server.

Using the Spectralink DECT Repeater With ExternalAntenna
If coverage is needed in a remote area, synchronization can be established between the main sys­tem and a repeater by use of an external antenna. The external antenna establishes a radio link between the main system and a Spectralink DECT Repeater.
Note:
Only the Spectralink external antenna (part no. 0231 9705 - including 1 m connection cable) is approved along with the Spectralink DECT Repeater. The external antenna is delivered with a 1 m connection cable. The connection cable is also available in 3 m (part no. 1400 2704 and 7.5 m (part no. 1400 2706).
The Spectralink DECT Repeater is automatically configured to the external antenna when connected.
Below is an example of using a Spectralink DECT Repeater with external antenna.
A repeater is placed at a remote location and a base station is placed at the main location. They are too far away to allow the repeater to extend the coverage of the base station. Therefore, an external antenna can be used to establish a connection between the two end points. As the external antenna is a high gain directional antenna, it must point towards the base station you want to link with.
The radio link way must be stable and free of moving objects. The RSSI level of the main system at the Spectralink DECT Repeater placed remotely must not be lower than 75.
Note:
Inside the area named "radio link" there is no radio coverage for handsets.

If a situation occurs where the primary synchronization for some reason breaks down, the Spec­tralink DECT Repeater will obtain synchronization on the alternative synchronization source.

Alternative Synchronization Ways

The Spectralink DECT Repeater with or without external antenna, 4 channels, can be programmed to obtain synchronization on two radio units (base station, wireless server 200/400 or repeater).
Note:
The primary synchronization source has priority; the alternative synchronization source is only in use as long as the primary synchronization source is down.

Using the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 200/400 and Spectralink IP-DECT Base Station With ExternalAntenna
Note:
Only the Spectralink external antenna (part no. 0231 9705) is approved along with the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 200/400 and Spectralink IP-DECT Base Station . The external antenna is delivered with a 1 m connection cable. The connection cable is also available in 3 m (part no. 1400 2704 and 7.5 m (part no. 1400 2706).
The devices are automatically configured to the external antenna when connected.
First example (see illustration below) is an example of using a Spectralink IP-DECT Base Station with external antenna.
The 2 base stations are too far apart to maintain full speech coverage between them. An external antenna can be used on either side to create an overlap which allows for full speech coverage any­where between the two base stations. Note that the range of RFP A is reduced when connected with an external antenna. RFP A and the external antenna also operates on the same channel as opposed to a repeater which always operates on a channel that is different from its host.

Configuring the Spectralink IP-DECT Server/Spectralink DECTMedia Resource Solution
This section provides you with information on basic network configuration of the Spectralink IP­DECT Server 200/400/6500/Spectralink DECTMedia Resource solution and the web based Admin­istration Page.
Note:
Configuration of Spectralink DECTMedia Resources and Clusters is not relevant to the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 200/400.
Configuration of Spectralink IP-DECT Base Stations is not relevant to the Spectralink IP­DECT Server 200.
The web based Administration Page is used to configure the different components of the Spectralink IP-DECT Server solution.
Basic network settings can be obtained the following ways:
l From a DHCP server
Using DHCP the device requests and obtains an available IP address from a DHCP server. The device also obtains other parameters such as the default gateway, subnet mask, DNS server, Time server and other IP parameters from the DHCP server.
l Entered manually through web based Administration Page > Configuration > General >
General Configuration page.
Using manual network configuration, the IP-addresses and other networking parameters are entered manually through the web based Administration Page.

Recommended Network Configuration

When configuring a Spectralink IP-DECT Server solution, Spectralink recommends doing it the fol­lowing way:
l Spectralink IP-DECT Server 400/6500 using static IP address
This is to avoid sudden change of the IP address which would temporarily affect all base sta­tions and thus the entire installation.
l Spectralink IP-DECT Server 200 using static IP address
l Spectralink DECTMedia Resources using static IP address
Like with the servers, this is to avoid sudden change of the IP address.
l Spectralink IP-DECT Base Stations using DHCP
This makes it easy to manage many base stations without having to keep track of many IP addresses.
Note:
When the base stations are set up to DHCP, you need to use UPnP to discover the Wire­less devices. In Windows Explorer the devices will appear under Network and Other Devices as “<device name>-<Serial number> “ (e.g. Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500­8442621 or MR6500-84532341).
Note:
Spectralink IP-DECT Base Stations and Spectralink DECTMedia Resources can be managed from the web based Administration Page of the Spectralink IP-DECT Server.
If the Spectralink IP-DECT Server solution is configured as recommended above, it is possible to assign options to the DHCP server making it extremely easy to configure all media resources and base stations. If the Spectralink IP-DECT Server is configured using DHCP, it is necessary to assign a reservation for the device on the DHCP server.

Assigning DHCP Server Options

Note:
Not relevant to the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 200.
This section provides you with information on basic network configuration of the Spectralink IP­DECT Server 400/6500 solution and the web based Administration Page.
You can provide information about the static IP address of Spectralink IP-DECT Server 400/6500 in the DHCP server through DHCP options. When defining the IP address of the Spectralink IP-DECT Server 400/6500 in the DHCP server, all media resources and Spectralink IP-DECT Base Stations are configured automatically.
The media resources and Spectralink IP-DECT Base Stations will include a Vendor Class Identifier option (60) with the value KIRK.IP6000 and a request for the Vendor Specific Information option (43) in the initial DHCP Discover request.
In the DHCP offer message, it will then expect the address of the Spectralink IP-DECT Server loc­ation in the Vendor Specific Information option (43), sub-option 43 encpapsulated as a string type parameter.
On a Windows Server 2012 DHCP Management Cosole, the following steps will configure the cor­rect DHCP option:
1. Right-click IPv4/IPv6, and click Define Vendor Classes....
2. Add a class new class:
l Display name: IP-DECT
l Description: Spectralink IP-DECT
l ASCII: KIRK.IP6000 (case sensitive)
3. Right-click IPv4/IPv6, and click Set Predefined Options....
4. Add a new option in the IP-DECT class:
l Name: IP-DECT Server
l Type: String
l Code: 43
l Description: IP address of the IP-DECT Server
5. Right-click Server Options, and click Configure Options.
6. Under Advanced, add option 43 in the Spectralink IP-DECT vendor class, and set the value to the IP address of the Spectralink IP-DECT Server.

SpectralinkIP-DECT Server 200/400/6500 Installation and Configuration Guide
Using the Powershell, following commands will configure the correct DHCP options for a Spectralink IP-DECT Server with the IP address 192.168.1.10:
netsh dhcp server add class IP-DECT "Spectralink IP-DECT"
netsh dchp server add optiondef 43 "IP-DECT Server" string 0 vendor­r=IP- DECT comment="IP address of the IP-DECT Server"
netsh dhcp server set optionvalue 43 string vendor=IP-DECT "192.168.1.10"
On a ISC DHCP server, the following configuration file fragment will be the correct DHCP options for a Spectralink IP-DECT Server with the IP address 192.168.1.10:
option space ipdect code width 1 length width 1; option ipdect.server code 43 = text; option vendor-ipdect code 43 = encapsulate ipdect; class "vendor-classes" {
match option vendor-class-identifier; } subclass "vendor-classes" "KIRK.IP6000" {
vendor-option-space ipdect;
option ipdect.server "192.168.1.10"; }

Discovering the Spectralink IP-DECT Components via UPnP

The Spectralink IP-DECT Server is setup with DHCP enabled by default. Therefore, you must use UPnP to discover the Spectralink IP-DECT Server.
The Spectralink IP-DECT Server will appear under Network and Other Devices (using Windows Explorer) as "KWS6500 -<Serial number> ", e.g. KWS6500-8442621
Below is an example of using UPnP to discover Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500.

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

The Spectralink IP-DECT product portfolio support the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) version 2c for monitoring system health and performance.
A number of general MIBs are supported by Spectralink IP-DECT Servers, Spectralink DECTMedia Resources and Spectralink IP-DECT Base Stations. These provide general inform­ation e.g. uptime, number of received/transmitted udp datagrams etc.
The following MIBs are implemented on the DECT devices:
l IF
l IP
l IP-FORWARD
l TCP
l EtherLike
l SNMPv2
l IPV6
l UDP
In addition to the general information mentioned above, specific Spectralink DECT information is available on the Spectralink IP-DECT Server only. This information is defined in a SPECTRALINK­IPDECT MIB, which includes the following groups of information:
l dectGeneralInfoGroup
Objects which provide general information about the IP-DECT server.
l dectGeneralStatisticsGroup
Objects which provide general statistics about the IP-DECT server.
l dectUserInfoGroup
Objects which provide information about users on the IP-DECT server.
l dectRfpInfoGroup

Remote logging allows for Spectralink debug tools to extract debug information from the unit.
Remove user passwords from exported data (Optional)
If enabled, users passwords are prevented from being included when data are exported from the Spectralink IP­DECT Server,e.g. when exporting the user list to XML files or CSV files.
Note: Enabling this will exclude the user database from full system backups.
Note: Once enabled, this setting can only be disabled by a factory reset (Configuration > Factory Reset) that will remove all configuration and user data.
