Help? Will the Plantronics CS55/HL10 work with either a digital or analog phone system?

Alfred — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 22:44:35 +0000

Q: Will my Plantronics CS55/HL10 work with either a digital or analog phone system?

A: With the CS55/HL10 combination you will be connecting the wireless headset base to the phone where the handset is connected. Think of it as a wireless extension of your handset. By reconnecting your handset to the front of your wireless headset base you now have a choice between headset and handset.

This will work with either a digital phone, like Cisco or Nortel, or an analog phone, like Avaya Partner or what you would have at home. Remember, if you are using this at home, your phone cannot have remote cordless units or any features on the handset.

Help? How does the Y-Training Cable work on my Avaya phone with a HIP cord?

Sue — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 18:31:41 +0000

Q: I purchased a Y-Training Cable (part #27019-03) to use on my Avaya Phone with a HIP cord (part# 61804-03). I can not get the training cable to fit on my HIP cord, what am I doing wrong?

A: Make sure you are plugging your two headsets into the two short cords on the training cable. Plug the HIP cord into the longer cord on the other end of the cable.
