Polycom^® SpectraLink^® 6000 Base Station

Base stations provide the wireless communication channel between the wireless telephone and the MCU. Each base station supports four simultaneous telephone calls and covers a transmission area of typically 25,000 to 45,000 square feet. The size of the coverage area is dependent on wall structure, ceiling height, and other obstructions within a building.

Polycom® SpectraLink® 6000 base stations provides seamless coverage throughout the facility by enabling a smooth handoff of active calls between base stations as a user walks throughout the coverage area. The SpectraLink 6000 base stations are small, about the size of a hardback book, and can be mounted under a drop ceiling or on the wall. For outdoor installations, a weatherproof enclosure is available.

High-Density Applications
The SpectraLink 6000 System allows more base stations within a concentrated area, increasing call paths for high-density environments. Polycom offers special high-density base stations on the Polycom SpectraLink 6300 MCU to accommodate a high concentration of active wireless telephone users. The capacity of the base stations and master control unit remains the same, but the high-density base station transmission characteristics allow for a much higher spatial density than the standard base stations. The system is well suited for environments where there are many workers with frequent telephone usage within a relatively small area such as call centers, dense office environments, and trading floors.

High-density applications:

• Call centers
• Trading floors
• Wireless offices
• Emergency response and rapid deployment
• Conference centers and hospitality
