Yealink makes the handset sat on your desk. It doesn't make the system that answers your calls, routes them to the right person, or keeps working when the phone lines change over. If you searched "Yealink telephone systems" looking for the platform behind the hardware, this is where you match the two up — the right Yealink model, on a phone system built for how your business actually takes calls, quoted and fitted without the guesswork.
"Yealink telephone system" gets searched thousands of times a month, usually by whoever's just been handed the job of sorting out new office phones and started by looking at the handsets. It's the wrong end to start from — but it's an understandable one, because Yealink's own website reads like they sell a complete telecom system, not just the hardware. Here's what usually trips people up once they get further in.
Every one of these is a genuine business phone system — call routing, voicemail, call recording, mobile apps, the lot. Yealink handsets sit on top of any of them. Which one's right depends on how many sites you've got, how your team takes calls, and what you're already paying for elsewhere.
Most businesses end up with two or three models across the office, not one for everybody. This is roughly how they map to real desks.
Openreach is retiring analogue and ISDN lines across the UK. New Yealink handsets look modern on the desk, but if they're plugged into an old system that's still routing calls over an ISDN trunk or PSTN line, that's the part that needs replacing — not the phone itself.
