Using this snom IP telephone with your nfon telephone system merely requires a sound broadband connection.
Please note: Telephones with the firmware 8.9.3.x should not be downgraded to a firmware lower than 8.7.5.44, otherwise problems may occur if you try to upgrade again. See the manufacturer's notice here.
All telephones you receive are preconfigured and connected to the telephone system.
Find further information on how to install an extension in the administration portal manual.

You have the option of voice encrypting (SRTP) your telephone calls. You can activate this function for your customer account via the administration portal at any time.
Activation of this function is subject to fees.
You can activate the function Voice Traffic encryption (SRTP) on the administration portal under ADMINISTRATION / Profile.
- Activate the function on the administration portal.
- Restart all telephones. Restarting may take a few minutes. During a conversation a lock icon on the telephone display indicates encryption is activated.
⇒ The active call is now encrypted.
Call forwarding
You can configure various call forwarding scenarios. For this purpose you can use the call forwarding profiles.
Under the telephone menu you can only edit the default profle (catch all / always) to be found under the call forwarding profiles. You can edit the remaining call forwarding profiles via Ncontrol or via the administration portal. For more information, refer to the administration portal manual and the Ncontrol manual.
The following call forwarding options are available. You can activate or deactivate call forwardings via the telephone menu's call settings.
Permanent call forwarding (always)
All incoming calls will be forwarded directly to the predefined telephone number.
Forward if busy (busy)
New calls will be forwarded immediately, when coming in during an active call. This call forwarding option functions only, if the Call Waiting function is deactivated.
Delayed call forwarding (no answer)
Call forwarding condition: You do not answer the incoming call within a defined time period (timeout). The timeout can be set to 5, 10, 15 or 20 seconds. Where should the incoming call be forwarded after the specified time has elapsed? The caller receives a call waiting signal and is then forwarded to the defined destination.
If unavailable (not registered)
The option functions only if the end device is not registered to the telephone system:
- When the Internet connection fails or there is no LAN connection.
and
- If “call forwarding …if unavailable” is programmed for a direct extension (e.g. extension 123 - John Doe) and a caller calls the direct dial number for the extension directly, call forwarding applies. If the extension is a member of a queue or a group and the queue or group receives a call, call forwarding for the individual extension no longer applies! In general, the destination should always be an available destination number. I.e., make sure that no voicemail or announcement comes on.
The display on your telephone indicates
The display on your telephone indicates whether or not call forwarding is active.
Call forwarding codes
Call forwardings can alternatively be activated through * codes:
*10 | Activation of the call forwarding profile |
*11 + destination | Permanent call forwarding to telephone number |
**11 | Cancel permanent call forwarding |
*12 + destination | If no answer after a specific time, delayed call forward to telephone number |
**12 | Cancel delayed call forwarding |
*13 + destination | If busy, forward to telephone number |
**13 | Cancel call forwarding if busy |
*14 + destination | Call forwarding if unavailable |
**14 | Cancel call forwarding if unavailable |
The basic function of “Hot desking” allows cancelling the registration of existing users and registering new users to your end device. This is useful when employees frequently change their work station without taking along their end devices. After completing the registration process your configuration is automatically transferred to the new telephone.
Cancelling the registration of the current extension
- Proceed as follows when in menu:
Menu -> Telephone settings -> Cancelling an extension -> Confirm
⇒ The extension is now cancelled and the telephone is restarted. This may take some time.
Registering the new extension
- Proceed as follows when in menu:
Menu -> Enter the extension number -> Confirm -> Enter voice mail PIN -> Confirm
⇒ The new extension is now registered. This may take some time.
