Teams Connector - The interface between your SIP Trunk and Microsoft Teams
Would you like to make phone calls via affordable and flexible SIP trunks and at the same time use the collaboration features of Microsoft Teams for your company - all in one application? We have developed a solution for you to connect Microsoft Teams and SIP trunks: the Teams Connector!
- Receive incoming calls to office numbers in the Teams client
- Make outgoing calls to worldwide numbers from Teams via easybell or other providers
- Use the low easybell rates instead of expensive Microsoft call plans
- Test it for 30 days without obligation and risk-free
- For everyone who would like to use Unified Communications to its full extent
Favorable price and fair conditions
As with our SIP trunks and our cloud telephone system, we also design the contract terms for the Teams Connector to be absolutely fair and transparent:
- 5 €/month* for every 10 Microsoft Teams seats - the equivalent of just 50 cents per account per month!
- No hidden costs
- No minimum contract period, can be cancelled monthly
- Can be scaled easily for higher or lower demand
Book the Teams Connector
It's that simple:
As a new customer, you can add the option to connect Microsoft Teams to a telephony rate or the Office Complete Trunk during the ordering process.
Established customers have the option of adding the Teams Connector for Microsoft Teams to an existing SIP trunk in the customer portal.
Microsoft licenses
In order to be able to use Microsoft Teams fully and make phone calls with it, every company needs one or more licenses for Microsoft 365 or Office 365. Usually the additional, chargeable add-on Microsoft Teams Phone is also required for the use of Direct Routing. This add-on replaces its two predecessors, Phone System and Business Voice, as of February 2022.
Here you can see the most common license combinations. In our help center you can find more information about Microsoft's licenses.
| Basis | Version | additional Add-on |
|---|---|---|
| Microsoft 365 Business | Basic / Standard / Premium | Teams Phone |
| Microsoft 365 | F1 / F3 | Teams Phone |
| Office 365 | F3 | Teams Phone |
| Microsoft 365 / Office 365 | E1 / E3 | Teams Phone |
| Microsoft 365 / Office 365 | E5 | Teams Phone incl. |
Easy configuration in the customer portal
To successfully set up the Teams Connector, you need an active SIP trunk, suitable Microsoft licenses, and an account with admin rights. Once these requirements have been met, there is nothing standing in the way of the initial setup:
- Simply enter your Microsoft Teams account login details in the easybell customer portal.
- You can then assign a SIP Trunk phone number to each user account of the Teams instance.
- And just like that, incoming and outgoing telephony from Microsoft Teams with easybell phone numbers is possible!

Questions
The Microsoft Office suite in general and the Teams software are not rigid products. Rather, they are always a combination of different licenses that determine the actual range of features.
For example, if you want to use Microsoft Teams not only for internal company communication and cooperation, but also to make phone calls over the local network (PSTN), you usually need the additional paid add-on "Teams Phone", which must be booked separately for each seat that is to be able to make phone calls later.
With the following license combinations, you can extend your Microsoft Teams with telephone functions and thus obtain a real solution for Unified Communications (UC).
You can switch the mode of your SIP trunks in the customer portal under "Phone settings" > "Manage numbers". One of the modes available is "PBX" for the easybell Cloud Telefonanlage. If, on the other hand, you want to connect your SIP trunk to another PBX or to Microsoft Teams via the Teams Connector, you must use the "Trunk" mode. Therefore, parallel operation of the Cloud Telefonanlage and the Teams Connector is not possible at this time.
However, we are working to make both systems compatible with each other so that you can use Microsoft Teams as a device for the Cloud Telefonanlage.
As soon as this is possible, we will provide instructions in our help section as well as in our newsletter.
