How do I brand the screens on IP phones? – New Call Enterprises

Branding your phone LCD screens

Many of the phones and devices that are available for use on the NCE Network can display a logo on the LCD screen. These logos can be customized for your company, or you can choose to display no logo to your end-users. Each model of phone has different requirements for the format of the logo file. These files are generally grayscale bitmap (.bmp) images.

Polycom

NCE current offers support for displaying a logo on the Polycom SoundPoint 430, 501, 550, 601, 650, 670 and SoundStation 4000, 6000, 7000 phones. Polycom IP phones require a grayscale bitmap image file at differing resolutions and color palettes for each phone. Logos smaller than described in the sections below are acceptable, but larger logos may be truncated or interfere with other areas of the user interface. Polycom IP phones only support the colors listed below. Any other colors will be approximated.
