Headset Information

To use a headset, see Using a Handset, Headset, and Speakerphone, page 65. Although Cisco Systems performs some internal testing of third-party wired and Bluetooth wireless headsets for use with the

Unified Wireless IP Phone 7925G, Cisco does not certify or support products from headset or

Cisco handset vendors. Because of the inherent environmental and hardware inconsistencies in the locations

16 OL-16132-01

Connecting Your Phone

where Cisco Unified IP Phones are deployed, there is not a single “best” solution that is optimal for all environments. Cisco recommends that customers test the headsets that work best in their environment before deploying a large number of units in their network.

Cisco Systems recommends the use of good quality external devices, like headsets that are screened against unwanted radio frequency (RF) and audio frequency (AF) signals. Depending on the quality of these devices and their proximity to other devices such as cell phones and two-way radios, some audio noise may still occur. See

The primary reason that a particular headset would be inappropriate for the Cisco Unified IP Phone is the potential for an audible hum. This hum can be heard by either the remote party or by both the remote party and you, the Cisco Unified IP Phone user. Some potential humming or buzzing sounds can be caused by a range of outside sources, for example, electric lights, being near electric motors, large PC monitors. In some instances, the mechanics or electronics of various headsets can cause remote parties to hear an echo of their own voice when they speak to Cisco Unified IP Phone users.

Using External Devices, page 5 for more information.

Using Bluetooth Wireless Headsets

Using Bluetooth wireless headsets will likely increase battery power consumption on your phone and might result in reducing battery life.

For a Bluetooth wireless headset to work, it does not need to be within direct line-of-sight of the phone, but some barriers, such as walls or doors, and interference from other electronic devices, could affect the connection.

Audio Quality Subjective to the User

Beyond the physical, mechanical and technical performance, the audio portion of a headset must sound good to you (the user) and to the party on the far end. Sound is subjective and Cisco cannot guarantee the performance of any headsets, but some of the headsets on the sites listed below have been reported to perform well on Cisco Unified IP Phones.

Nevertheless, it is ultimately the customer's responsibility to test this equipment in their own environment to determine suitable performance.

For information about wired and Bluetooth wireless headsets for your phone, see the Cisco Unified

Wireless IP Phone 7925G Accessory Guide and these web sites:

Depending on the configuration, your phone supports:

• Use of Bluetooth wireless headsets, including certain handsfree call features.

• Wireless access to your phone number and the corporate directory.

• A local phone book that can store up to 100 contacts, and speed-dial hot keys that can be assigned

to phone book contacts.

• Access to network data, XML applications, and web-based services.

• Online customizing of phone features and services from your User Options web pages.
