Interoperability for Wi-Fi Telephony Applications

SpectraLink Corp., the leader in workplace wireless telephony, and Meru Networks, the global innovation leader in wireless infrastructure for the All-Wireless Enterprise, announced that they have completed field verification of compatibility between SpectraLink's NetLink Wireless Telephones and Meru's Wireless LAN System. Verification of compatibility was done at multiple customer sites including PGT Industries, the leading U.S. manufacturer and supplier of residential impact-resistant windowsand doors.

"SpectraLink and Meru both came highly recommended, and we now have more than 200 handsets running over our wireless LAN," said Dave Morley, technical services leader of IT for PGT Industries. "Our manufacturing line leaders and other key personnel rely on the wireless voice solution for real-time communications, resulting in improved uptime on the manufacturing lines," he added.

Based on successful customer trials, SpectraLink has joined Meru's VoIP Unplugged Partner Program. VoIP Unplugged is an industry effort led by Meru, designed to facilitate the delivery of seamless, end-to-end wireless VoIP solutions for enterprises and service providers.

"Many of our customers use SpectraLink's Wi-Fi telephony products because of their enterprise-grade quality and reliability," said Jim Ciociolo, vice president of Business Development for Meru Networks. "Officially verifying interoperability between our Wireless LAN System and SpectraLink's Wi-Fi handsets, and having SpectraLink join our VoIP Unplugged Program, were both important objectives for us. We're excited about the benefits our two solutions have been bringing and will continue to bring to customers like PGT Industries.

"Meru's focus on enterprise voice over Wi-Fi makes them a valuable partner for SpectraLink," said Geri Mitchell-Brown, director of Technical Business Development for SpectraLink. "We look forward to continuing to work with Meru through our ongoing commitment to interoperability testing and verification of enterprise wireless LAN products."

In addition to their field verification program, SpectraLink's VIEW Certification Program provides comprehensive lab testing of interoperability and performance of NetLink Wireless Telephones with Wi-Fi infrastructure products to ensure compatibility in any enterprise environment.
