Yealink CP960 Skype for Business Conference Phone 5-Inch Touchscreen Meeting Phone Dubai
Yealink CP960 Skype for Business Conference Phone in Dubai
The Yealink CP960 Skype for Business Edition is a premium touchscreen conference phone for meeting rooms that still run Skype for Business, Office 365 voice workflows, presence, calendar and enterprise calling features. It gives the meeting room a dedicated audio endpoint instead of relying on a laptop speaker, a small USB puck or a mobile phone on loudspeaker. With a 5-inch 720×1280 multi-touch screen, 360-degree microphone pickup, Yealink Noise Proof Technology, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and USB Micro-B pairing, the CP960 is designed for Dubai boardrooms, management meeting rooms, training rooms and regional call rooms that need clear voice pickup around the table.
Vector Digital Systems LLC supplies, stages and supports Yealink conference phones in Dubai. Tell David, our Yealink specialist, whether the room will be used for Skype for Business, SIP PBX calls, Teams, Zoom, or USB/Bluetooth audio from a laptop. We confirm the right firmware/platform before quoting so the phone arrives ready for the room, not just ready to unbox.
Platform Check — Skype, SIP, Teams or Zoom?
The CP960 body exists across different platform editions, and this is where many conference-room orders go wrong. This page is for the Yealink CP960 Skype for Business Edition. Do not assume that a Skype phone, SIP phone and Teams phone are interchangeable at delivery stage. The firmware and service sign-in path must match your meeting platform.
| Your Platform | Right CP960 Choice | What You Need |
|---|---|---|
| Skype for Business / Office 365 voice environment | Yealink CP960 Skype for Business Edition — this page | Skype for Business account, user credentials/PIN or web sign-in, calendar/presence configuration |
| SIP PBX — 3CX, Yeastar, Grandstream UCM, hosted PBX | CP960 SIP firmware / SIP conference configuration | SIP credentials from your PBX or hosted VoIP provider |
| Microsoft Teams Phone / Teams meetings | Verify current Microsoft certification before quoting | Microsoft 365 tenant, Teams Phone licence and a currently certified Teams device |
| Zoom Phone / Zoom Rooms audio | Zoom-certified Yealink range — ask David to verify the current model | Zoom Phone or Zoom Rooms licence and certified hardware selection |
Certification note: Microsoft certification status changes over time. For Teams deployments, Vector Digital Systems checks Microsoft’s certified devices list before quoting and will write “verify certification status” unless the exact device is listed at the time of order.
Power and PoE Truth — Confirm the Room Port Before Delivery
The CP960 is powered by PoE. The Yealink documentation lists Power over Ethernet IEEE 802.3af Class 4, and the external Yealink PoE adapter YLPOE30 is optional. That means your meeting-room network point must supply PoE, or the order needs the matching external PoE adapter. This is checked before dispatch because boardrooms often have a floor box with Ethernet but no PoE switch behind it. We confirm the cabling, PoE and room layout before sending the phone.
Room Size and Pickup Range
The CP960 uses a built-in 3-microphone array with 360-degree voice pickup and a 20-foot / 6-metre pickup range, making it suitable for medium to large meeting rooms. For longer tables, optional CPW90 wireless microphones can extend pickup to participants seated farther from the main unit. This makes the CP960 a strong fit for Dubai boardrooms in Business Bay, DIFC, JLT, DMCC and hotel meeting spaces where one device must cover the full table without cable clutter.
CP960 Platform Position — Same Body, Different Use Cases
The CP960 is best understood as a conference-phone platform. The buying decision is not “newer versus older” — it is “which CP960 firmware and platform does this room need?” The Skype for Business Edition is for organisations still using Skype for Business workflows, presence and calendar. The SIP configuration is for PBX calling. Teams and Zoom rooms require certification checks before purchase.

Where the CP960 Skype Works in Dubai
Executive meeting rooms. For boardrooms in DIFC, Business Bay and Sheikh Zayed Road offices, the CP960 gives the table a dedicated audio endpoint with calendar, presence and one-tap meeting workflows instead of asking the first attendee to connect a laptop speaker.
Regional coordination rooms. Dubai offices coordinating with Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait often keep Skype for Business or hybrid Office 365 voice infrastructure for internal calls. The CP960 supports Skype for Business conference functions, Boss/Admin workflows, Common Area Phone use and hot desking for shared rooms.
Training rooms and hotel meeting spaces. The 360-degree 6-metre pickup pattern suits rectangular meeting tables, training rooms and hotel boardrooms. When the table is longer, CPW90 wireless microphones can be added without dragging microphone cables across the room.
Hybrid audio rooms. The CP960 can pair with a smartphone over Bluetooth or connect to a PC/tablet through USB Micro-B, allowing the room to use the conference phone as a loudspeaker and microphone for supported audio workflows. This is useful where the room alternates between Skype calls, PBX calls and laptop-based meetings.

Frequently Asked Questions — Yealink CP960 Skype for Business
Is the Yealink CP960 Skype for Business Edition the same CP960 conference phone body?
Yes. The CP960 Skype for Business Edition uses the CP960 conference phone platform with Skype for Business firmware and interface. The buying decision is platform-specific: Skype for Business, SIP PBX, Teams and Zoom deployments must be checked before quoting so the room receives the correct edition and configuration.
Does the Yealink CP960 Skype work with Microsoft Teams?
Do not assume Teams compatibility from the CP960 Skype name. This page is for Skype for Business workflows. Microsoft Teams deployments require a currently certified Teams device, Microsoft 365 tenant and Teams Phone licence. Vector Digital Systems verifies Microsoft certification status before quoting any Teams conference phone.
Does the CP960 Skype come with a power adapter, or do I need PoE?
The CP960 is PoE powered and uses IEEE 802.3af Class 4. The Yealink YLPOE30 external PoE adapter is optional and should be added if the meeting-room network port does not provide PoE. Vector Digital Systems checks this before dispatch so the boardroom installation is not delayed.
What room size is the Yealink CP960 Skype designed for?
The CP960 Skype is designed for medium to large conference rooms. Its built-in 3-microphone array gives 360-degree pickup with a 20-foot / 6-metre range. For longer tables, optional CPW90 wireless microphones can extend pickup for participants seated farther from the main unit.
Can I use the CP960 Skype as a speakerphone for a laptop?
Yes. The CP960 Skype supports PC/tablet audio pairing through the USB Micro-B device port and can also pair with a smartphone using Bluetooth. This allows the meeting room to use the CP960 as a higher-quality speaker and microphone for supported audio workflows.
Will the CP960 Skype work with our 3CX, Grandstream UCM or SIP PABX?
A SIP PBX deployment should be quoted as a SIP CP960 configuration, not assumed from the Skype for Business edition. Tell David whether your room will register to 3CX, Yeastar, Grandstream UCM, Asterisk or a hosted PBX so Vector Digital Systems can confirm the correct firmware and provisioning path.
CP920 vs CP960 Skype — which Yealink conference phone should I buy?
Choose the CP920 for a simpler SIP conference room with smaller meeting requirements. Choose the CP960 Skype when the room needs a premium touchscreen experience, Skype for Business calendar and presence workflows, 6-metre pickup, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and optional wireless expansion microphones.
