WELCOME/FEATURES/TERMINOLOGY [2]
This series features AutoTalk and AutoStandby. AutoTalk allows you to answer a call by just removing
the handset from the cradle so you don't have to waste time pushing buttons. AutoStandby allows you to
hang up by simply returning the handset to the cradle.
To protect you against mis-billed calls that might result from your phone being activated by other
equipment, this series has
Random Code digital security, which automatically selects one of more than
10,000,000 digital security codes for the handset and base.
Digital Spread Spectrum Technology uses a wider frequency band than standard digital transmissions. The
result is a more secure conversation with the clarity of digital sound, extended range, and minimal
interference from other cordless phones.
IntegriSound Built in sound quality which provides life-like conversations.
With DirectLink mode, you can use two or more handsets as radio transceivers (walkie-talkies).

911 Service Notice
911 dialing is not automatic.
Packet8 offers Enhanced 911 calling as a standard feature of its Internet phone
service. However, there are certain circumstances, when you dial 911 from a phone
connected to the Packet8 service, where E911 service may not function, or the E911
service may be in some way limited by comparison to traditional 911 service. Please
review the Terms and Conditions at www.packet8.net for additional information.
Before You Start!
Visit the Packet8 activation website http://activate.packet8.net/ and enter the
MAC address ID found on the bottom of your UIP165P. After you activate the
UIP165P, you will receive an email containing a 10-digit activation code. You will
need this activation code in Step 3.
STEP 1: Check Your Equipment
Check your broadband setup and the other equipment you will need:
• A broadband modem and a broadband Internet connection
• A computer with an Ethernet port (or a local Ethernet switch or router)
• One CAT-5 Ethernet cables
• The Packet8 10-digit activation code that was emailed to you when you created your
account. (If you don't have this email, go to www.packet8.net and enter the email address
and password used to create the account in the account sign in at the top of the screen.)
• If you want to use an analog phone or fax machine with the UIP165P, you will need a
standard telephone cable (RJ-11).
note
If you ordered your
UIP165P directly from
Packet8, it will already
be activated for you.
Your 10-digit activation
code was in the
confirmation email you
received when your
UIP165P shipped. (If
you don’t have this
email, go to
www.packet8.net and
enter the email address
and password used to
create the account in
the account sign in
page.)

STEP 2: Install the rechargeable battery pack into the handset
The handset is powered by a rechargeable battery pack. The battery recharges
automatically when the handset is placed in the cradle.
BROADBAND PHONE
SETTING UP YOUR
•Use only the Uniden
(BT-446) rechargeable
battery pack supplied
with your cordless
telephone.
•Replacement battery
packs are also
available through the
Uniden Parts
Department (see back
cover page).
1) Press down on the handset battery case cover (use the
finger indention for a better grip) and slide the cover
downward to remove.
2) Plug the battery pack connector (red & black wires) into
the jack inside the battery compartment. (The connector
notches fit into the grooves of the jack only one way.)
Match the wire colors to the polarity label in the battery
compartment, connect the battery and listen for a click to
insure connection.
3) Make sure you have a good connection by slightly pulling
on the battery wires. If the connection is secure, the
battery jack will remain in place.
4) Place the battery case cover back on the handset and slide
it upwards until it clicks into place.

STEP 3: Check Your Broadband Configuration
The UIP165P supports the two most common broadband connection protocols:
DHCP and PPPoE. If your broadband connection uses DHCP, you do not need to
change any settings on the UIP165P. If your broadband connection uses PPPoE,
you will need to enter your user name and password in "STEP 5: Activate your
Packet8 Service" on page 13.
If your broadband provider has given you a static IP address, you will need a special
configuration for your UIP165P. See the User Interface Guide at www.uniden.com/
voip for more information on configuring your UIP165P.
STEP 4: Connect Your UIP165P
Once your account is set up, you can connect your UIP165P.
1) Use the Ethernet cable to connect your broadband modem to the RJ-45 port labeled
INTERNET [WAN]. If you use a switch or a router for your local network, then you can
connect it to the INTERNET[WAN] port instead.

from your PC. If you have any difficulty, see the Troubleshooting section.
See the User Interface Guide at www.uniden.com/voip for more information on
configuring your UIP165P.

Expanding Your Phone
Ten Handset Expandability
Your phone supports up to ten handsets, including any handsets supplied with your
phone. You can place a fully-featured cordless handset anywhere power is available to
connect the handset charger. All the registered handsets ring when a call is received.
Your phone is compatible with a variety of handsets, including the TCX805, TCX905,
ELX500, TCX400, TCX440 and TCX450. (Please check www.uniden.com for an updated
list of expansion handsets compatible with this series.)
EXPANDING YOUR
Registering Expansion Handsets
If you purchase an expansion handset, you need to register the handset before use.
Only one handset can be registered at a time.
Handsets supplied with the phone are registered to the base by the factory. When
you register an extra handset to the base, the handset ID will be assigned.
Before the expansion handset is registered, the battery pack MUST be charged for
15-20 hours.
To register TCX805 and TCX905 handsets
1) Make sure the base is in standby mode
2) Place the handset in the main base.
While the handset is registering,

De-register the Handset
Deregister the handset's ID from the main base unit or the base ID from the
handset. You will usually only deregister the handset if you are moving it from one
base to another, if you are having a problem with your phone or if you need to
change the digital security code. The digital security code is an identification code
used to connect the handset and the base unit. Normally, setting the code is not
necessary. In the rare situation that you suspect another cordless telephone is
using the same security code, you can change the code by de-registering and
reregistering all handsets.
EXPANDING YOUR
