Attachment of foot and receiver #

You can choose a tilt of 46 degrees or 28 degrees when you place the phone.

Note: Before you attach the foot to the housing, connect the long end of the handset cable to the with marked socket on the back of the phone and insert the handset cord into the recess in the lower right corner.

1. Position the grooves in the foot below the mounting strips on the back of the phone. For the steeper installation angle you have to push the short legs, for the flatter installation angle the long legs onto the brackets.
2. Slide the foot up onto the retaining strips until it clicks into place.
3. Then connect the short end of the handset cord to the handset.
4. Place the phone on a flat, horizontal surface.

Turn the earpiece over #

The phone is delivered with the handset pin in the position for placing the phone on a table. If the phone is going to be hung on the wall, we recommend that you turn the spike over. The opening on the underside of the receiver fits exactly onto the tip of the mandrel, which then protrudes slightly over the edge of the storage recess, and holds the receiver securely in the vertical position.

1. Push the handset pin up and out of the slot (Fig. 1)
2. Rotate it 180 degrees.
3. Push it back into the slot (Fig. 2). The tip of the mandrel now protrudes about one millimeter over the edge (Fig. 3). There is a rectangular recess on the underside of the handset loudspeaker that is hooked onto the handset spike.

Instructions for wall mounting can be found in "Appendix 4 - Wall mounting" on page 94.

Connect the phone #

Connect the Ethernet cable to the RJ45 connection socket labeled "NET". You connect the other end of the cable to your network to enable data exchange and to supply the phone with power if PoE is available. If Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) is not available, use the Snom power supply unit A6 (not included). Insert the plug of the power supply unit into the socket labeled 5V DC and connect the power supply unit to the power supply.

Note: Use only a power supply unit expressly recommended by Snom. The use of other power adapters could damage or even destroy the phone or cause annoying noises.

The second RJ45 connection socket labeled “PC” on the underside of the phone is used to chain other network devices together without the need for a second network connection.

Connect the headset #

You can use both corded and cordless headsets.

• Corded headset.

If you want to use a headset, connect it to the  labeled audio jack on the back of the phone.

Note: If both a corded and cordless headset are connected to the phone, incoming calls will be directed to the cordless headset.

• Cordless headsets.
  • D765. Connect a Bluetooth headset via the integrated wireless module: see Appendix 6 on page 102.
  • Snom 760. Connect a bluetooth headset using a bluetooth adapter: You need a bluetooth adapter to use a bluetooth compatible headset with the phone.
  • Plug the Bluetooth adapter into one of the two USB ports on the phone. Further information can be found in the Quick Start Guides for the Snom USB BT and the Snom HS BT or in the operating instructions for the headset from another manufacturer.
  • Attention: As of firmware version 8.7.2.11, the parameters of the sound card of the Snom HS BT are the default settings for USB headsets.
    • If your phone works with an earlier version, you have to enter the parameters manually on the phone's web interface on the Advanced> Audio page in the text field of "Audio Parameters". Click the question mark? to look up the parameters.
    • If you use a different cordless headset, you have to enter the parameters of the sound card manually on the web interface of the phone on the page Advanced> Audio in the text field of "Audio parameters" for all firmware versions. Click the question mark? to look up the parameters for your particular headset.
  • Connection to the base of the headset via a Snom EHS adapter (not included in the scope of delivery). Insert the plug of the 7xx adapter cable into the socket on the back of the phone, as shown in Fig. 1, 2 and 3 below. Do not insert the plug upside down into the socket (Fig. 49); this would render the phone inoperable.
    • Note: To gain access to the socket, you must remove the base of the telephone (see “Attaching the base and handset” on page 14). After you have connected the 7xx adapter cable, make sure that the cable lies flat on the base of the phone while you attach the base. Twisting or compressing the cable can potentially damage the sheath of the cable or the wires in it.
  • For more information on connecting Snom EHS Advanced and your cordless headset, please refer to the Quick Start Guide for the Snom EHS Advanced and the operating instructions for your headset.

You enter this data on the phone's web interface.

Note: Some IP telephony providers and / or SIP telephone systems require different settings than those preset in the Snom telephones in the delivery state. On Snom's website you will find a large number of SIP providers and telephone systems that have been tested for interoperability with our telephones and, if necessary, required setting changes. Do not change the default settings unless you know exactly what you are doing. If necessary, pull add an expert.
