For some companies, it may be imperative that users be able to make announcements to other users through an intercom message. With a Yealink cordless handset, there are three different ways that you can page/intercom other phones:

1. Use the paging function to page all phones on the same internet network.
2. Use the intercom function to page other handsets.
3. Dial the 08 code to page a single phone.

Method 1: Page All Phones

With the Paging function of the handsets, you can page all other phones that are connected to the same LAN (Local Area Network) as your handset. 

To page all other phones on the same internet network…

1. Press the OK button to access the Menu.
2. Navigate to Call Features.
   
3. In the Call Features menu, select Paging.
   
   

   ✔ The handset will send out a multicast page that all other phones on the same internet network will receive. 

   

   The message you speak into the handset will play over the speakers of the other phones.

    

Method 2: Intercom Other Handsets

Yealink cordless handsets have the ability to page other handsets connected to their same base station. This can be useful for businesses that require separate paging channel for handsets.

To use the Intercom function to page another cordless handset…

1. Press the OK button to access the Menu.
2. Navigate to Intercom.
   
3. In the Intercom menu, do one of the following:
   
   
   • Select a single handset to intercom.
   • Select All Handsets to intercom all handsets that are registered to the same base station as this handset. 
4. Wait for the handsets to accept the call.
   
   

   Quick Tip: By default, cordless handsets will ring when they receive an intercom call from other handsets. This ensures that users accept the intercom call before the intercom message is played over the handset's speaker. 

   If you need to set a handset to automatically answer intercoms from other handsets, follow the module below:

   Set a Handset to Auto Answer Intercoms

    If you would like a handset to automatically answer intercoms, do the following:

   1. Press the OK button to access the Menu.
   2. Navigate to Settings.
   
   3. In the Settings menu, select hony.
   
   4. In the lephony menu, select Auto Intercom.
   
   5. In the Auto Intercom menu, select one of the following:
   
       •  On(Beep On) - Play a beep sound before automatically answering the intercom message.
       •  On(Beep Off) - Automatically answer intercom calls without an initial beep.
       •  Off - Require the intercom call to be accepted before the person initiating the intercom can proceed.

    

    

    
5. Speak into the handset or its speaker. The handsets being paged will hear your message over their speakers.
   

   ✔ When the intercom message is ready to be relayed, you will see a duration being tracked on your handset's screen.
   

   The handset(s) being paged will show the name of the handset paging them.
   
    

    

Method 3: Page a Single Phone

In some situations, it may be more appropriate to only page one device. With the 08 code, you can page a device connected to a specific extension number. Doing so would place an intercom call that the phone should automatically answer. 

If you need to page one phone by itself, dial 08 and the extension number of the paging phone/device. Speak into the handset or its speaker. The phone being paged will hear your message over their speakers.
