Configure Mitel 5485 Paging Unit

To configure a Mitel 5485 paging unit for use in your company, follow these steps:

  1. Follow the vendor documentation to physically connect the Mitel 5485 paging unit into your network.
  2. Add a location in to the system. The location extension will be used as the paging unit's extension. See Add a Location.
  3. Click Phone Inventory in the left menu.
  4. Select the Phone Label corresponding to the MAC address of the 5485 paging unit.
  5. Select the location from the Assigned User/Location list.
  6. Click Save.

The paging unit is now available to receive calls. Whenever anyone uses the paging feature, the paging unit will be one of the devices through which the page is broadcast.

If you configure the paging unit to have the Handsfree Answerback feature, then Intercom calls to the paging unit have no time limit. If you do not configure the paging unit to have the Handsfree Answerback feature, then the maximum length of time for an Intercom call is the same as the Paging feature limit.
