1. Introducing LG-Nortel IP8540 IP Phone
1.1 Overview
IP8540 is a powerful communications tool for enterprises with Microsoft Office Communications Server
2007. IP8540 links the power of Office Communications Server 2007 to the high reliability of a dedicated
desk phone. IP8540 employs an embedded version of Office Communicator 2007 (“Office
Communication 2007 Phone Edition”) as the client with access to contacts stored locally and in Office
Communications Server 2007. The large full color touch screen graphically presents context sensitive call
controls, contact lists and status. A simple tap of the screen yields fingertip control of communications,
place calls from contact lists, transfer calls to others and conference multiple calls.
•
Wideband real-time codec technology delivers high fidelity audio from the handset and full duplex
speakerphone.
•
For higher security installations, IP8540 supports both PIN (Personal Identification Number) and
advanced biometric fingerprint reader.
•
Keep a record of all phone conversations in Outlook.
With Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2 upgrade (S/W version 3.5.6907.0), following new
features are also available:
•
Improved user experience. The user interface has been enhanced to provide a better look-and-
feel. The soft input panel (SIP) has been enlarged to enable easier entry of credentials on the
Sign-in page.
•
Voice Mail indicator. A "Message Waiting" indicator is now shown when a voicemail has been
recorded. The list of voicemails is also displayed in the Messages view, showing who left the
message, their presence status, and the date and time that the message was recorded. (This
feature requires Exchange 2007.)
•
Call Log view. The Call Log view has also been implemented, showing the list placed, received,
and missed calls (This feature requires Exchange 2007).
•
Configure Finger Print to unlock. Users can choose to configure a PIN or a fingerprint to
unlock the phone.
•
Wideband audio quality. Audio quality has been improved significantly by the addition of
wideband RTAudio for peer-to-peer VoIP calls. Multiparty and PSTN calls now use the SIREN
codec to the A/V MCU or Mediation server. In addition, significant work has been done to
improve echo cancellation.
•
External access. External access is now supported. Users can now take the device home and
make calls from and receive calls to their SIP URI or work phone number.
•
Search Outlook contacts on the device. The Search feature on the phone now displays not
only your corporate address book contacts but also personal contacts that you have stored in
Outlook. Users can call Outlook contacts from phone with a single touch.
•
Improved login scenarios. Login resiliency and auto sign-in during failures have been improved
in this version.
