New low cost Yealink T20E available exclusively from ProVu

T20E banner

ProVu are pleased to announce the arrival of the new low cost Yealink T20E IP phone.

We believe this model is one of the most competitively priced quality IP phones available. It has all the same functionality of the popular T20P model including the same Auto Provisioning engine. However, as there is no POE support we are able to bring it to market at an even lower price (includes a UK PSU).

The T20E is the ideal phone for those opportunities where the budget is really tight and is perfect for call centres where the key is to supply a low cost robust and reliable phone.

Please note ProVu Communications Ltd are a trade only distributor. All pricing is available on ProSys, our Reseller portal. If you are an ITSP, telecoms retailer or telephony system installer sign up to become a ProVu reseller.

Yealink T26P, T28P and T38G now interoperable with Sennheiser Wireless Headsets


The Yealink EHS36 wireless (electronic hook switch) headset adaptor is now compatible with the high quality headsets in the Sennheiser DW Office DECT range. Meaning that there is now more choice of Wireless headsets to use with the T26P, T28P and the T38G.

The Sennheiser-Y-Cable is required for compatibility between the headset and the phone, this cable will be included in all our current and future stock of the EHS36.

Very secure Yealink provisioning coming soon

Just a quick note to say that I was supplied a specially modified version of a Yealink T28P a few weeks ago which has HTTPS certificates loaded into it.

There are two certificate chains, one is used by the provisioning server to verify the identity of the phone. The other is used by the phone to verify the identity of the server. There is a list of a few popular certificate signing authorities you can buy a certificate from for the server identity.

This two way identification is what is required for a truely secure provisioning system. It protects against attackers attempting to obtain SIP configuration from our servers and protects against DNS spoofing/poisoning attacks against your phones.

We sometimes get asked for HTTPS provisioning and of course it is pretty simple to implement. But without these certificates it is fairly useless. It does nothing to guarantee the identity of the server or the client.

At the moment this is a Beta test, we will be rolling out this provisioning option as soon as we can, in the next few weeks. It requires Yealink to start supplying phones with certificates pre-loaded at the factory and requires a certain (currently test-only) firmware version.

If any of this is of interest, please let us know.

Yealink Handset Training Day

Last week, ProVu ran a Yealink handset training course down at the University College London (UCL). Roy from Yealink UK was also present to oversee the course and answer the commercial stuff.

The course is designed to cover the range of Yealink products and give a better technical understanding of the products. Attendees should be able to configure the Yealink phones and perform simple diagnostics to trace problems.

A wide range of topics was covered: ranging from the very basics of setting up a Yealink phone to configuring OpenVPN and discussing Yealink security features, amongst other things.

Here is a picture of me demonstrating the Yealink video phone making a video call with a Protalk Door Entry unit:

There was a Yealink goody-bag for people to take away at the end of the day which included a Yealink cup for you to SIP from.

Yealink phones now supplied with 2 YEARS warranty

We are delighted to announce that all Yealink phones supplied by ProVu after the 11/11/11 will be covered by a 2 Year (24 months) warranty as standard.
