2.  NetLink e340/h340/i640 Wireless Telephone 
Overview 
The NetLink e340/h340/i640 Wireless Telephone is a mobile handset for workplace 
IP telephone systems. NetLink Wireless Telephones operate over an 802.11b 
wireless Ethernet LAN providing users a wireless voice over IP (VoIP) extension. By 
seamlessly integrating with the Mitel IP telephony system, NetLink Wireless 
Telephone users are provided with high-quality mobile voice communications 
throughout the workplace. The NetLink Wireless Telephone gives users the freedom 
to roam throughout the workplace while providing all the features and functionality 
of an IP desk phone. 
The NetLink e340/h340/i640 Wireless Telephone provides a wireless extension to 
the Mitel Networks 3300 and SX-200 ICP VoIP solutions. The NetLink Wireless 
Telephone supports the MiNET protocol, a proprietary protocol developed by Mitel 
Networks for communication between a Mitel Networks IP phone and a Mitel 
Networks PBX. 
The NetLink Wireless Telephones reside on the wireless LAN with other wireless 
devices using Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) radio technology. The 
handset radio transmits and receives packets at up to 11Mb/s. 
2.1  QoS and Security 
The NetLink SVP Server is an Ethernet LAN device that works with the access 
points (APs) to provide QoS on the wireless LAN. Voice packets to and from the 
NetLink Wireless Telephones are intercepted by the NetLink SVP Server and 
encapsulated for prioritization as they are routed to and from an IP telephony server 
or gateway. See the NetLink SVP Server: Installation, Configuration  and Administration 
document for detailed information about this device. 
The NetLink e340/h340/i640 Wireless Telephone supports Wired Equivalent 
Privacy (WEP) as defined by the 802.11 specification. SpectraLink offers the product 
with both 40-bit and 128-bit encryption. 
NetLink Wireless Telephones support basic WMM™ (Wi-Fi Multimedia) if also 
supported by the AP as part of the 802.11e protocol. If the AP supports WMM, the 
handset automatically discovers and uses it. WMM does not replace the NetLink 
SVP Server. 
NetLink Wireless Telephones also support the 802.11i protocol including Wi-Fi 
Protected Access (WPA™ and WPA2™)—PSK. As vendors introduce access points 
that are eligible to become Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ for WPA-PSK and/or WPA2-
PSK, SpectraLink will determine their compatibility with the NetLink Wireless 
Telephones and include them on the NetLink Wireless Telephone Access Point 
Compatibility Table
 
The latest software versions are required to support the features described 
in this document.
