June 26, 1997


SpectraLink Corporation
5755 Central Avenue
Boulder, Colorado 80301


Ladies and Gentlemen:


We are counsel to SpectraLink Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), and in such capacity have examined the Company's Registration
Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement"), being filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the registration under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of the offering of a maximum of
1,250,000 shares (the "Shares") of the Company's Common Stock, to be issued
pursuant to the Company's Stock Option Plan and Employee Stock Purchase Plan
(collectively, the "Plans").  We am familiar with the proceedings undertaken by
the Company in connection with the authorization, reservation and registration
of the Shares.  Additionally, we have examined such questions of law and fact
as we have considered necessary or appropriate for purposes of this opinion.

Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been duly
authorized and, upon issuance, delivery and payment therefor as contemplated by
the Plans, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

We hereby consent to your filing this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement.


                                        Very truly yours,

                                        IRELAND, STAPLETON, PRYOR & PASCOE, P.C.

                        Consent of Independent Auditors

We consent to the incorporation by reference in this Registration Statement on
Form S-8 pertaining to the registration of 1,250,000 shares of Common Stock,
