Bluetooth Wireless Headsets
The Cisco Unified IP Phone 8945 supports Bluetooth Class 2 technology when the headsets support Bluetooth.
Bluetooth enables low-bandwidth wireless connections within a range of 30 feet (10 meters). The best
performance is in the 3- to 6-foot range (1 to 2 meters). You can pair up to 5 headsets, but only the last one
connected is used as the default.
Note
The Cisco Unified IP Phone 8941 does not support Bluetooth.
There can be a potential interference issues. Cisco recommends that you reduce the proximity of other 802.11b/g
devices, Bluetooth devices, microwave ovens, and large metal objects. If possible, configure other 802.11
devices to use the 802.11a channels.
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.
Enable a Bluetooth Wireless Headset
Before a user can use a Bluetooth wireless headset, you must enable it.
