Step 1: Upgrade your Yealink DECT Base and Handsets to the Required Firmware

Ensure that your DECT device and handsets are running on the required firmware. To check which firmware the phones are running:

1. Access the official Yealink website and then click “Software”. Select your model and download the latest Firmware image file.
2. Point your web browser to your Yealink DECT Manager IP address.
3. Navigate to “Settings” > “Upgrade” > “Select and Upgrade Firmware”.
4. Click “Browse” choose the firmware image file saved previously, and press “Upgrade.”
5. If using the Yealink W80 or W90 repeat this step for all the Yealink Base Stations you will connect to the DECT Manager.

Note: The handset firmware is upgraded automatically as soon as it is registered for the first time. To manually upgrade the handset after registration, navigate from the handset screen to “Settings” > “Upgrade Firmware” and press “Upgrade”. Supported Handsets:

• Yealink W53H (v88.83.0.20 or later)
• Yealink W56H (v61.85.0.35 or later)
• Yealink W59R (v115.83.0.10 or later, also requires Base firmware v103.83.0.80 or newer)
• Yealink W73H

Step 2: Factory Reset the Yealink DECT System

Used devices have to be reset to factory defaults. To reset the device:

1. Hold the device button for at least 20 seconds.
2. Release the button.
3. The device will now proceed to reset and reboot.

Step 3: Add a Yealink DECT Base in 3CX and Assign Users to the Handsets

1. Go to “Admin > Voice and Chat”.
2. Click on “+Add DECT/FXS”.
3. Select your model and enter the device’s MAC address then click ”Next”.
4. Select the provisioning method according to your installation type:

1. If your instance is in the cloud or outside of the office, choose “Connect via SBC / router phone” and choose the one local to your device, then click “Next”.
   Important: The “Router Phone” or SBC must already be up and running.
2. If your installation is on-premises, choose “Local LAN / VPN” and choose your system FQDN or local IP, then click “Next”.

5. Assign your users and click “Add DECT base station”.

You will be able to assign more users after the set-up. Restart your device (unplug/plug). Once restarted, your DECT will be automatically provisioned.

If you have disabled RPS: a pop-up window will appear with the “Provisioning URL”. You need to copy this and enter it in the DECT base station web interface.

Point your web browser to the device’s IP address and log in with the default username and password “admin”.

Go to “Settings” > “Auto Provision” > “Server URL” and enter the provisioning link copied earlier.

Press “Confirm” at the bottom of the page, and then press “Auto Provision Now”.
