The Aastra 6725ip is an optimised IP phone that comes with an embedded Microsoft Lync system. This allows the phone to function independently as a Microsoft Lync endpoint unit

Integration with Microsoft Lync provides the Aastra 6725ip with a set of added features that

clearly distinguishes it from the other IP phone series. In fact, this unit in itself is often referred to as the true IP Phone. Furthermore, the embedded Microsoft Lync 2010 Phone Edition client makes it possible for the Aastra 6725ip to integrate seamlessly with Microsoft Lync server 2010 for additional optimised functionality

Another key advantage with having an embedded Microsoft Lync system into the Aastra 6725ip is that it does not need to rely on a PC in order to gain access to Lync features and functions. Connection to a PC via the USB port is possible in order to synchronise settings and configuration on the phone

For instance, connecting the Aastra 6725ip to a desktop PC that is installed with a Microsoft Lync 2010 system would provide PC control over the phone unit. It would then be possible to use the desktop PC to activate call features like dialing a contact, call hold, call transfer and call conferencing: all from the comforts of mouse clicks or keyboard functions on the PC

On the phone side, the Aastra 6725ip comes with a fully coloured 3.5″ QVGA LCD display for graphical display which offers an intuitive user interface. The user of multi coloured presence indicators provides an efficient means of visually informing the user while limiting the number of LED indicators to an easy to manage level. The angular view can be adjusted according to the different user’s optimal viewing needs. One minor problem though is that if the angle is too steep, the handset may sometimes slide off the cradle. Provision for wall mounting is also available. Power can be derived through the built in Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, or by purchasing a separate 48V power adapter. Some buyers would have preferred a package that already includes the power adapter, especially if their phone system does not have support for PoE.

Unified Communications or UC icon allows access to Lync features, such as letting the user’s status be known to other Lync equipped phones and systems. This is great for group collaboration. This IP phone has support for many languages for universal appeal, including English, Chinese, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Russian, Spanish and Swedish
