Documentation

All optiPoint phones are shipped with a printed document providing brief instruction regarding installation and operation. For both user and administrators, a comprehensive and updated documentation is provided as PDF files. Depending on the system environment, the user may choose between HiPath 8000, BroadSoft and Sylantro specific documentation.

Firmware / Software

The SIP firmware provides encryption capabilities. Hence its distribution must follow legal requirements which do not allow unrestricted SW distribution via the Internet. The firmware is only provided by Siemens technicians or by official Siemens Partners. Customers with self-care contracts will have access to SW within the SEBA Web portal (login required).

The firmware of the optiPoint SIP phones comprises two software components:

  • NetBoot Software: this component provides low level features (like Boot process, LAN connectivity) and is not changed once a phone has been produced from factory and/or is in operation. However, if necessary new features may be provided during the ongoing development and factory production process.
  • Application Software: this component contains all features for:
    • Call Handling
    • Call Signalling
    • Audio Control
    • User Interface
    • Language Support

the Application Software component is continuously developed and enhanced and it can be downloaded to the phone using an FTP server as needed.

Actually SIP line application software main version to be used is SIP V6.0 that is supported on most HiPath systems (see Interoperability Matrix to have more informations.
Only recently SIP Application Software V7 was released to be supported on HiPath 8000 V3.0.

Current software releases

The actual V6.0 Application software is optiPoint 410/420 SIP V6.0 R3.68.0.

    Due to Bug (NA02884341).
    This bug can occour sporadically after upgrade process from application versions between V6 R1.65.0 and V6 R1.65.7 or from version V6 R2.66.0: the available Hotfix was released with V6.0 R2.66.1.
    The optiPoint 4x0 SIP phones family with application versions between V6 R1.64.0 and V6 R1.64.8 can safely be upgraded to that latest version V6 R2.66.0 because not affected by this bug.


The actual SIP V7 Application Software is optiPoint 410/420 SIP V7.0 R0.10.0 tested only for usage with HiPath 8000 V3.0 R1.0.7 and newer software versions.

Mass deployment

What do we mean with “deployment”?

The installation of an IP phone in general requires integrating the phone into an IP infrastructure specific to the customer’s or user’s needs. This integration normally requires some activities on all components involved, i.e. on the IP phone and on other components like application servers and routers.
Additionally to the hardware related tasks like providing LAN cables and setting up the necessary power supply, this integration also covers adapting the IP phone to the individual customer configuration by setting various parameters to appropriate values. In this article we will use the term “deployment” for this task, including the provisioning of new software to the IP phone. Sometimes the term “provisioning” is used instead of “deployment”.

Individual phones can be easily set up using the local menue and the keypad or - more comfortable and even remotely - the phone's web administration. Larger companies or voice service providers have to install and maintain hundreds or thousands of phones, requiring mass deployment capabilities.

Mass deployment – how it works

IP terminals offer a range of functions and characteristics that were unknown or technically impossible in analog or early digital system environments (for example, ISDN). But increased product flexibility requires more complex technology. For this reason, it is essential that VoIP devices be optimally configured for users while at the same time expenditure (costs, time, training) must be kept to a minimum for service providers. Different scenarios have different requirements. However the following factors are critical for all solutions:

  • Minimum network intervention or modification
  • No inflexible or costly preconfiguration at the terminal
  • No or minimum (one-off) user activities

There are two main scenarios:

Add-on devices, Adapters and Accessories
