Integrating the SoundPoint IP 7000  
Conference Phone with a Polycom  
HDX System  
This chapter describes how to integrate the SoundPoint IP® 7000 conference  
phone with a Polycom® HDX system in an unsupported VoIP environment. It  
also describes how to upgrade the phone’s software when it is connected to a  
Polycom HDX system. The phone must be running SIP application 3.1.1  
(phone software) or later.  
The SoundPoint IP 7000 conference phone is compatible with the following  
Polycom HDX systems running 2.5 or later:  
Polycom HDX 4000™ series  
Polycom HDX 7000™ series  
Polycom HDX 8000™ HD  
Polycom HDX 9000™ series  
Polycom strongly recommends that you connect the SoundPoint IP 7000 to the  
LAN using the included network cable and to the Polycom HDX system using an  
Polycom HDX Microphone Cable. A LAN connection enables access to a  
provisioning server as well as a time server.  
A provisioning server facilitates software upgrades, configuration management, and  
diagnostic logging, which is helpful if troubleshooting is required.  
Access to a time server enables display of the current date and time on the phone's  
display.

Polycom Limited Warranty and Limitation Liability  
LIMITED WARRANTY. Polycom warrants to the end user (“Customer”) that this product is expected to be free from  
defects in workmanship and materials, under normal use and service, for one year from the date of purchase from  
Polycom or its authorized reseller.  
Polycom’s sole obligation under this express warranty is at Polycom’s option and expense, to repair the defective  
product or part, deliver to Customer an equivalent product or part to replace the defective item, or if neither of the  
two foregoing options are reasonably available, Polycom may, on its sole discretion, refund to Customer the  
purchase price paid for the defective product. All products that are replaced will become the property of Polycom.  
Replacement products or parts may be new or reconditioned.  
Polycom is expected to warrant any replaced or repaired product or part for ninety (90) days from shipment, or the  
remainder of the initial warranty period, whichever is longer. Products returned to Polycom must be sent prepaid  
and packaged appropriately for safe shipment, and it is recommended that they be insured or sent by a method that  
provides for tracking of the package. Responsibility for loss or damage does not transfer to Polycom until the  
returned item is received by Polycom. The repaired or replaced item will be shipped to Customer, at Polycom’s  
expense, not later than thirty (30) days after Polycom receives the defective product, and Polycom will retain risk of  
loss or damage until the item is delivered to Customer.  
The product software comes with 90-day software warranty, providing for software updates (minor releases/bug  
fixes). To continue to receive support, purchasing a maintenance contract is the most economical solution.  
Exclusions  
Polycom will not be liable under this limited warranty if its testing and examination disclose that the alleged defect or  
malfunction in the product does not exist or results from:  
Failure to follow Polycom’s installation, operation, or maintenance instructions.  
Unauthorized product modification or alteration.  
Unauthorized use of common carrier communication services accessed through the product.  
Abuse, misuse, negligent acts or omissions of Customer and persons under Customer’s control; or  
Acts of third parties, acts of God, accident, fire, lightening, power surges or outages, or other hazards.  
Warranty Exclusive  
IF A POLYCOM PRODUCT DOES NOT OPERATE AS WARRANTED ABOVE, CUSTOMER’S SOLE REMEDY  
FOR BREACH OF THAT WARRANTY SHALL BE REPAIR, REPLACEMENT, OR REFUND OF THE PURCHASE  
PRICE PAID, AT POLYCOM’S OPTION. TO THE FULL EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, THE FOREGOING  
WARRANTIES AND REMEDIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, TERMS,  
OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EITHER IN FACT OR BY OPERATION OF LAW, STATUTORY OR  
OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WARRANTIES, TERMS, OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A  
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, CORRESPONDENCE WITH DESCRIPTION, AND  
NON-INFRINGEMENT, ALL OF WHICH ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED. POLYCOM NEITHER ASSUMES NOR  
AUTHORIZES ANY OTHER PERSON TO ASSUME FOR IT ANY OTHER LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH  
THE SALE, INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE OR USE OF ITS PRODUCTS.
