If your site runs Ubiquiti UniFi, you can choose UniFi Talk phones (the G3 Touch Pro, Enterprise and Wall) or Yealink SIP phones, and ARC IP Networks stocks both. UniFi Talk phones give one console for network and phones, but UniFi Talk's own calling plans are not offered in Australia, so the G3 phones connect to a SIP provider or PBX through Talk Relay. Yealink gives the broader range (DECT, headsets, Teams, meeting rooms), direct support from every Australian hosted provider and 3CX, and lower entry prices. For most Australian businesses on UniFi we recommend Yealink phones on the UniFi network; choose G3 phones when single-console management matters more than range.
ARC IP Networks is a trusted Yealink supplier in Australia: genuine Yealink stock with the full manufacturer's warranty, delivered Australia-wide at competitive prices, with local pre-sales help for businesses, installers and IT providers.
How UniFi Talk works in Australia
UniFi Talk is Ubiquiti's phone application on a UniFi gateway or console. In the United States and Canada, Ubiquiti sells calling plans directly. In Australia those plans are not available, so a UniFi Talk deployment uses Talk Relay to connect the G3 phones to a third-party SIP provider or PBX. That works, but it means you still need an Australian VoIP provider, and the feature set is what UniFi Talk supports rather than the provider's full platform.

Specifications as published by Ubiquiti and Yealink.
When UniFi Talk phones make sense
- You already live in the UniFi console and want phones, cameras, Wi-Fi and access control in one place.
- A small number of desk phones, no DECT and no headset requirements beyond Bluetooth.
- The look matters: the G3 Touch phones match a UniFi-branded fit-out.
When Yealink makes sense on a UniFi network
- You need cordless phones, wired or DECT headsets, Teams phones or meeting rooms.
- You want the hosted provider's full feature set and auto-provisioning rather than Talk Relay.
- Budget seats: Yealink entry phones cost less than a G3 Touch.
- Mixed sites where some locations are not on UniFi.
Running Yealink on UniFi
Yealink phones are standard SIP devices and run on UniFi switches like any PoE endpoint. Put them on a voice VLAN with QoS in UniFi Network, size the PoE budget (USW-Lite-16-PoE for a small office, USW-Pro-24-PoE for a floor) and let the provider provision them. See our network guide linked below. Because ARC IP Networks supplies both Ubiquiti and Yealink, we can quote the switches and phones together.
