4.1. Devices

Devices

A device is usually a phone. However, there are different types of phones:

  • standard device (snom desk phone)
  • Conference phone (Polycom SoundStation)
  • nPhone (Softphone)
  • DECT base (Kirk)
  • DECT handset (Kirk)
  • FMC device
  • ATA (Linksys or Patton)

Select your device to suit your needs. If you need a phone for your office, you usually use a standard device. If you travel a lot, you can use your mobile phone as a FMC device. Or if you need a device for your warehouse, you get a DECT wireless handset, so you are always accessible.

First select in the serviceportal ELEMENTS, then select Devices.
