Dialpad now offers support for Yealink DECT devices, providing cordless options for users. The setup process involves four steps: pairing the device with the base station, provisioning the device to Dialpad, adding the device to the Dialpad Admin Portal, and activating the port for a Dialpad user or room. To pair the handset with the base station, the base station must be put into Registration Mode and the handset needs to be registered successfully. After pairing, the device is provisioned by entering the IP address in a computer browser and logging in with admin credentials. Once provisioned, the device can be added to the Dialpad Admin Portal by navigating to Office Settings and selecting Desk Phones. Finally, ports can be assigned to users or rooms by selecting Options and choosing Assign a new device. Unassigning ports and renaming devices are also possible through the Admin Settings.
