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).
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.
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.
•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).
