Setting up a Yealink T-series Phone

Once you've purchased your Yealink T-series phone, it's time to set it up with Dialpad.

Yealink T-series devices can be set up as a user or room phone.

Before getting started, refer to the phone’s “Quick Setup” guide to ensure the device is powered on and connected to your network.

Let's dive into the details.

Difference between Room and User Phones

Room Phones are perfect for shared company spaces such as conference rooms, reception areas, or phone booths. They are not associated with a user account. User Phones are desktop phones assigned to one of your team members. When their Dialpad number is called, that user's phone will ring.
