Polycom® SoundStation® IP 5000 Phone User Guide
Since you can customize your phone in many different ways, and your system administrator can enable and disable certain features, the user interface that displays on your phone may differ from the figures that appear in this guide.
Generally, your phone will be deployed with multiple other phones. In this case, your system administrator will configure the phone parameters beforehand, so that after you set up your phone, the phone will be registered and ready to use.
If your phone is not part of a large phone deployment, your phone may not be registered after you set it up. Before you use your phone, you or your system administrator will have to register it.
For detailed information on how to register your phone after you install it, see Registering Standalone SoundPoint IP, SoundStation IP, and Polycom VVX 1500 Phones (Quick Tip 44011), available from the Technical Notifications & Feature Profiles Support Web page.
