  • Repeat the firmware upgrade process for each base station connected to the DECT Manager.


Important Before performing the upgrade, ensure the handset is placed in the charging cradle and the battery level is above 50%.

Handset firmware can be upgraded using the same workflow:

  1. Navigate to Settings > Upgrade > Select and Upgrade Firmware.

Add a DECT Phone in PortSIP PBX

Follow the steps below to add a DECT phone to PortSIP PBX.

To add a DECT phone:

  1. Sign in to the PortSIP PBX Web Portal.

  2. Navigate to Call Manager > DECT Phones.

  3. Click Add. The Add DECT Phone window appears.

  4. Select the phone model and enter the MAC address of the DECT base station.

After adding the DECT phone, you need to assign users to the handsets.

To assign users to handsets:

  1. Open the Users tab.

  2. For each handset, select the user(s) you want to assign.


Auto-Provision Handsets via RPS

If your PortSIP PBX is deployed in the cloud and you enabled Save to RPS when configuring the DECT phone, the provisioning process is fully automatic.

With this option enabled:

  • The DECT base station automatically downloads its configuration file from the vendor’s Remote Provisioning Server (RPS).

  • The DECT base station provisions all associated handsets.

  • The handsets are automatically registered to the PortSIP PBX without manual intervention.


Manually Provision Handsets

If your PortSIP PBX is deployed on-premises without Internet access, or if you disabled the Save to RPS option, you must provision the DECT handsets manually.

To manually provision handsets:

  1. Sign in to the PortSIP PBX Web Portal.

  2. Navigate to Call Manager > DECT Phones.

  3. Double-click the DECT phone you want to provision.

  4. Copy the provisioning URL.
