How to Connect Conference to Zoom Rooms and Microsoft Teams Room?

To connect a Yealink device to Zoom Rooms and Microsoft Teams Rooms, here’s a step-by-step guide for each platform:

1. Connecting a Yealink Device to Zoom Rooms

This setup is for Yealink devices compatible with Zoom Rooms, such as the Yealink MeetingBar A20, A30, or RoomPanel.

Steps:

1. Install the Zoom Rooms App:

• Ensure the Yealink device is pre-installed with the Zoom Rooms app. If not, you can download it from the Zoom website and install it on the device.

2. Register Your Zoom Rooms License:

• Sign up for a Zoom Rooms license if you don’t already have one. This license is required to use Zoom Rooms features on your Yealink device.

• Log in to the Zoom Admin Portal and navigate to the Zoom Rooms section.

• Click on Add Zoom Room, input room details, and generate an activation code.

3. Activate Zoom Rooms on the Yealink Device:

• Power on the Yealink device and select Zoom Rooms as the application.

• Input the activation code generated from the Zoom Admin Portal.

• The device will connect to Zoom Rooms, allowing you to manage meetings from the touchscreen or controller.

4. Configure the Yealink Device:

• Set up the audio and video settings via the Yealink device or through the Zoom Rooms admin settings.

• Test the microphone, speaker, and camera to ensure everything is functioning correctly.

5. Schedule or Join a Zoom Meeting:

• From the Zoom Rooms interface on the Yealink device, you can schedule, join, or manage meetings just like any Zoom Rooms setup.

2. Connecting a Yealink Device to Microsoft Teams Rooms

For this, you need Yealink Teams-certified devices such as the Yealink MVC Series or Teams-enabled video bars like the Yealink A20/A30.

Steps:

1. Install the Microsoft Teams Room App:

• Ensure the Microsoft Teams Rooms app is installed on your Yealink device. If not pre-installed, download it from the Microsoft website.

2. Log in with a Teams Room License:

• You need a Microsoft Teams Room license, which you can get from your Microsoft 365 Admin Center.

• Log in to the device with your Microsoft Teams Room account.

3. Activate Teams Room on the Yealink Device:

• Power on your Yealink device and choose Microsoft Teams as the default conferencing platform.

• Input your Teams Room credentials (username and password) on the device.

• The Yealink device will synchronize with Microsoft Teams, connecting it to your Teams Room.

4. Configure the Device:

• Set up and test the microphone, speaker, and camera.

• Customize the room display settings, meeting notifications, and audio-video settings directly from the Teams Room interface or via the Teams admin center.

5. Join or Schedule Meetings:

• Use the touch controller or main interface to start or join scheduled Teams meetings.

Key Points to Remember:

• Ensure your Yealink device supports Zoom Rooms or Microsoft Teams, as not all models do.

• Always keep your firmware updated for the best performance and compatibility.

• Both Zoom Rooms and Microsoft Teams Rooms require specific licenses for the respective platforms.
