Phone Calls with Intelligent Proximity
When you use Bluetooth, you can pair your mobile device (phone or tablet) to your desk phone. After you
pair and connect the mobile device, your phone displays an additional phone line, which is your mobile line
(your mobile phone number). You can place and receive calls on this mobile line from your desk phone. This
ability to use the mobile line on your desk phone is called Intelligent Proximity.
Pair a Mobile Device with Your Desk Phone
After you pair your mobile device to your desk phone, the phone connects to the mobile device when the
device is in range. It disconnects from the mobile device when the device is out of range.
If you have both a Bluetooth headset and a mobile device connected, you cannot use the Bluetooth headset
to answer the audio from the mobile device.
After the mobile device and phone are connected, you can save your mobile contacts and call history on your
desk phone.
Before you begin
Make sure that your mobile device has Bluetooth turned on and that it is discoverable. Check the documentation
included with your mobile device if you need help.
