      Using this snom IP telephone with your nfon telephone system merely requires a sound broadband connection.

      There can be delays with incoming and outgoing calls when using the snom 7xx series in combination with a Plantronics DECT headset and a APU-71 EHS adapter.

      The snom 715 is End of Life (EOL) since January 28, 2015.

      To operate a snom D7 expansion module an update to firmware v 8.7.5.17 is necessary.

      A total of three D7 modules can be daisy-chained. The chain is operated via USB cable. From the second module onwards, an extra power supply unit is needed.

      All telephones you receive are preconfigured and connected to the telephone system.

      Find further information on how to install an extension in the administration portal manual.

      No content available.

      You have the option of voice encrypting (SRTP) your telephone calls. You can activate this function for your customer account via the administration portal at any time.

      Activation of this function is subject to fees.

      null

      You can activate the function Voice Traffic encryption (SRTP) on the administration portal under ADMINISTRATION / Profile.

      -   Activate the function on the administration portal.

      -   Restart all telephones. Restarting may take a few minutes. During a conversation a lock icon on the telephone display indicates encryption is activated.

      ⇒ The active call is now encrypted.

      The basic function of “Hot desking” allows cancelling the registration of existing users and registering new users to your end device. This is useful when employees frequently change their work station without taking along their end devices. After completing the registration process your configuration is automatically transferred to the new telephone.

      Cancelling the registration of the current extension

      - Proceed as follows when in menu:

      Menu -> Telephone settings -> Cancelling an extension -> Confirm

      ⇒ The extension is now cancelled and the telephone is restarted. This may take some time.

      Registering the new extension

      - Proceed as follows when in menu:

      Menu -> Enter the extension number -> Confirm -> Enter voice mail PIN -> Confirm

      ⇒ The new extension is now registered. This may take some time.

      On snom 710, the second function key is by default preconfigured as a menu key. Press this key to enter the phone menu. Once you are in the menu, all Hot Desking settings are the same as on other snom telephones.
