User Guide for the Polycom®  
SoundStation® IP 5000 Phone  
This guide includes overview information that you may find helpful when  
you’re just starting to learn about your phone or when you have experience,  
but you need a quick refresher.  
The Polycom® SoundStation® IP 5000 phone can be customized to show only those  
options used in your organization. Therefore, there may be options covered in this  
guide that you can’t access on your phone. To find out more about these options,  
please talk to your system administrator.  
Note  
Registering the Phone  
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 your phone is set up, the phone will be registered and  
ready to use.  
If your phone isn’t part of a large phone deployment, your phone may not be  
registered after it’s set 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 it’s set up, see  
Quick Tip 44011: Register Standalone SoundPoint IP, SoundStation IP, and Polycom  
VVX 1500 Phones, available at  
http://www.polycom.com/usa/en/support/voice/soundpoint_ip/VoIP_T  
Before You Use Your Phone  
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.  
Note  
This section describes the phone’s features, the icons that display on the  
screen, and how to navigate menus and enter data. It also provides a link to  
helpful tips to use when you’re in a conference call.
