ShoreTel IP 485G VoIP telephone
The ShoreTel IP 485G is a business-grade VoIP telephone designed for office environments. It features a 480x272 pixel colour backlit display and supports Power over Ethernet for simplified deployment. The handset includes a full-duplex speakerphone and visual voicemail capabilities for efficient communication management.
Suited for desk-based office workers needing
This model suits users who require eight programmable line keys and dedicated feature buttons for transfer, conference, and hold functions. Organisations relying on wireless headsets or requiring Wi-Fi connectivity should look elsewhere, as the unit provides only wired Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. Buyers needing a touchscreen interface or integrated Bluetooth support will not find those features here.
Connects via single Ethernet cable
Installation is straightforward: connect the network cable to the 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet port and a PC to the integrated switch port for passthrough. The phone draws power from the network switch when PoE is available. Common issues include VLAN misconfiguration preventing registration and incorrect switch port settings disabling the passthrough port for the attached computer.

Questions about this item
What network infrastructure must already be in place for the IP 485G to power up and connect?
A Power over Ethernet switch or injector supplying PoE and a 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet network drop are required for the phone to operate.
Can the built-in 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet switch pass traffic to a legacy 10/100 desktop PC?
Yes, the integrated switch negotiates at 10 or 100 Mbps, so an older PC will connect through the phone without extra cabling.
How can I confirm the 480x272 backlit colour display is functioning correctly after first boot?
The screen should show the ShoreTel boot logo, then the idle screen with date, line keys and soft-key labels all lit in colour.
