Using BToE to Manage Calls on Your Phone and Skype for Business
client
After your VVX phone is paired with your computer, you can answer and place audio and video calls with
your Skype for Business contacts on your phone and in the Skype for Business client on your computer. You
can hold and resume audio calls and pause and resume video calls on your VVX phone. BToE enables you
to communicate with Skype for Business contacts using your Skype for Business client while providing you
with quality audio through your VVX phone.
You can use any VVX phone as your primary audio device for all Skype for Business calls even if you are
not signed into Skype for Business on the phone. When you connect a VVX phone that is registered to
another user to your computer, the phone acts as a speakerphone for all audio and video calls initiated in
the Skype for Business client on your computer.
You can only have a video call between you and one other person. Calls with three or more people are
audio-only.
Note: How do I use my VVX phone for playing audio from media on my computer?
If you want to route audio from media that uses the computer's speakers, such as from web videos or
media players, you must manually change the computer's default audio speaker device to use
Polycom VVX Phone. See the section
Computer.
