Headset

You can use a headset with the Cisco IP Phone 7970. To connect a headset, plug it into the Headset port on the back of the phone. Press the Headset button on your phone to place and answer calls using the headset.

You can use the headset with all of the features on your Cisco IP Phone, including the Volume and Mute buttons. Use these buttons to adjust the ear piece volume and to mute the speech path from the headset microphone.

The Cisco IP Phone supports four- or six-wire headset jacks. For information about some suggested models, refer to the following URL:

You can disable the headset through the Cisco CallManager Administration application or from the phone itself. If you disable the headset through Cisco CallManager, you also will disable the speakerphone.

To disable the headset from Cisco CallManager, choose Device > Phone and locate the phone that you want to modify. In the Phone Configuration web page for the phone, check the Disable Speakerphone and Headset check box.

To disable the headset from the phone, set the Headset Enabled option in the Device Configuration menu to No. See the “Device Configuration Menu” section on page 4-9for more information.

For additional important performance and related information, see the “External Microphone” section on page 3-5 .

External Speakers and Microphone

The Cisco IP Phone 7970 supports the use of external speakers and microphone if you are using an external power supply. However, you cannot use these devices if you are using the phone with in-line power. (See the “Providing Power to the Cisco IP Phone 7970” section on page 2-4for additional restrictions when using in-line power.)
