About the ET685 Deskset
The VTech ET685 SIP Deskset is a business phone designed to work with popular SIP
telephone (IP PBX) equipment and services. Once you have ordered and configured your

with any other business phone.

There are two network ports, known as the Ethernet port and PC port, at the back of the
ET685. The Ethernet port allows the ET685 Deskset to connect to the IP PBX. The PC port
is for another device such as a personal computer to connect to the Ethernet network
through the ET685.
You can configure the ET685 using the menus on the phone, a browser-based interface
called the WebUI, or an automatic provisioning process (see
). The WebUI enables you to configure the ET685 using a computer that is
connected to the same Local Area Network. The WebUI resides on the ET685, and may
get updated with firmware updates.
