Overview
System Overview
This document contains information on the installation and configuration of the Avaya 3600 Series
wireless phones with an IP Office system.
Information is routed from these phones to IP Office via an Avaya Voice Priority Processor (
AVPP
). The
AVPP uses Spectralink Voice Priority (
SVP
) as the Quality of Service (QoS) mechanism. SVP gives
preference to voice packets on the wireless medium, increasing the probability that all voice packets are
transmitted efficiently. The use of SVP requires the wireless Access Point to be SVP compatible.

Avaya Voice Priority Processor (AVPP)
An AVPP is a unit attached to the LAN that ensures quality of service (QoS) for 3600 Series
voice calls going to and from the wireless network. AVPP units are required as the current
IEEE802.11 wireless LAN standards do not provide a mechanism for differentiating audio
packets from data packets. Instead the AVPP applies a proprietary QoS protocol called
SpectraLink Voice Protocol (SVP) to the 3600 Series phone voice traffic. An AVPP is required on
each sub-net being used for wireless phone access. The AVPP units supported with IP Office
are:
AVPP Type Simultaneous
Calls per AVPP
Maximum Number of
AVPP's on Network
AVPP010
10 4
AVPP020
20 2
AVPP100
80* 16
*With the AVPP100 the maximum simultaneous calls per AVPP varies with the number of AVPP's on the
network.
