Description - Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500
The Spectralink IP-DECT Server 6500 controls the wireless infrastructure. It manages Spectralink
DECTMedia Resources, Spectralink IP-DECT Base Stations and the IP interface to the call hand-
ler.
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) depend-
ing 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 sup-
ports up to 4096 registered handsets and with a maximum of 32 Spectralink
DECTMedia Resources, it supports up to 1024 simultaneous calls. For more inform-
ation, see "Licenses for Spectralink IP-DECT Server 400/6500" on page39.
