Yealink T46G IP Phone Configuration

It is advisable to configure the Yealink T46G IP Phone always using the self-provisioning function because it is faster and absolutely error-free.

Yealink T46G IP Phone Configuration

The Yealink T46G IP phone with default settings automatically searches for a DHCP server on the network during boot to obtain a valid IP address. For the use of phones with the VOIspeed Server, the Firmware version 28.72.0.25 is recommended.

PHONE CONFIGURATION

Configuration is done via the web, by connecting with a browser to the phone’s IP address. Obtain the phone’s IP from the DHCP server monitoring or directly from the phone, by pressing the Menu softkey (bottom right below the display) and accessing the Status section.

Once connected via the web, the administrator’s username and default password are both set to “admin”. Below we indicate the parameters to be modified with respect to the default configuration, referring to a generic VOIspeed PBX user with the following example credentials:

username: 399
password: 3434343xyz!
internal: 399
VOIspeed server ip address: 192.168.0.220

CLICK TO DIAL

The phone natively supports click to dial, i.e. the ability to make calls sent from the users GUI. However, the function must be activated in the terminal configuration of the PBX. In the Toolbox – Terminals section, locate the user agent Yealink SIP-T46G 28.72.0.25 (you can also search for the string “yealink” in the “search” field to locate the terminal). If the user agent is not present it will be necessary to register the first telephone. After identifying the user agent of the phone, enter into edit and enable the “click to dial supported” function.

CONFIGURATION OF BLF KEYS

The Yealink T46G phone has 12 line keys, one of which is used for the voispeed user account. The remaining 11 keys can be used to view the status of the switchboard extensions and to make calls quickly. To configure a BLF key go to the DSSKey menu.

T46G BLF

Do not modify the first row of the table (Line Key1) because it represents the line connected to the switchboard. Then start from the second line (Like Key2) and set:
Label Lenght: Extended (allows you to have the graphic keys with the longest description)
Type: BLF
Value: internal of the desired user
Label: Convenience name of the contact
Extension: leave the field blank

The LED associated with the button will indicate the status of the extension (the graphic part is always fixed) in this mode:

off: user free or off
flashing red: user is ringing
steady red: user busy

AUTOMATIC USER IMPORT WITH CUSTOM RING

Warning: this procedure, if intended to differentiate the internal ring tones, can be avoided in the new version 6.5.X for PBX, since now it is the switchboard that sends the type of call (internal / external) to the terminals, using the SIP alert method. info. For information see the KB article.

It is possible to import the switchboard extensions into the local phone book and specify a desired ringtone for them so that external calls can be distinguished from internal ones. Follow the steps below:

  1. Enter the WEB administration of the phone
  2. Go to the Directory / Local directory section
  3. Click on the Import Csv button as in the image below:yealink-import rubrica
