Setup instructions for Connected Voice Professional

Only phones that are connected to your internet connection will support Connected Voice. Connected Voice will not function with any phones that are hooked into a normal phone jack.

Once connected to your CenturyLink internet service, the Connected Voice Polycom phone will instantly self-configure. The phone only needs to be plugged in and then you just need to connect the cords in the following four steps:

Connect the handset to the phone base
Connect the network cable
Connect the network cable to the phone's network port at the bottom. The active Ethernet port on the back of your modem or an Ethernet wall jack should be connected to the other end of the wire.
Plug in the phone
The power adaptor cord should be attached to the phone's base and plugged into a wall socket. Watch for the lights to start to illuminate on the phone's display.
Self-configure
Simply wait till your Connected Voice phone's automatic setup is finished. It is ready to use once you hear the dial tone.
