Audio Quality
Beyond physical, mechanical, and technical performance, the audio portion of a headset must sound good to
the user and to the party on the far end. Sound quality is subjective, and we cannot guarantee the performance
of any headsets. However, various headsets from leading headset manufacturers are reported to perform well
with Cisco IP Phones.

Analog Headsets

The phone cannot detect when an analog headset is plugged in. For this reason, the analog headset displays
by default in the Accessories window on the phone screen.
Displaying the analog headset as the default allows users to enable wideband for the analog headset.

USB Headsets

Wired and wireless USB headsets are supported. You can connect one USB headset (or the base station for
a wireless headset) to either the back USB port (if your phone has this port) or to the side USB port.

Select a USB Headset

You can only plug in one USB headset. If you are using an analog headset, you can switch to your USB
headset by using the Accessories window of the phone.

Step 2

Step 3 Select Accessories.
Step 4
Press the Navigation cluster, up or down, to select the USB headset.

Stop Using a USB Headset

You can stop using your USB headset and select a different headset in the Accessories window of the phone.
