What head sets work with cisco IP phones? Any Plantronics?



We are looking for wireless headsets that can conference 4 headsets
together (training purposes). What have others found to work well?



TIA

We tell our users to get Plantronics H-series for wired or CS50 for
wireless.. I have no personal experience with the wireless although there
are a few around the office that have them and never seem to have any
problems. Noone using them the way you are saying though.

Not sure about that number, but you know the phones generate audio on
the handset port when in headset mode and audio on the headset port
when in handset mode specifically for monitoring/training purposes?

The idea that speaker phone is not OK in cube land and we have 4 people
all trying to see the same screen.

I have thought about four different headset / phones conferences
together and then walk to a single cube, but they want it to be a single

plugin and move to next cube rather then assign the headsets to single
users.

Meeting place would really be the ticket hear, but ouch $$$$$$$$ I think
headsets are expensive. And meeting place express doesn't do the
desktop sharing which is all I really need.

And comments welcome.

Plantronics CS50's work pretty good but they aren't very cheap. Our
receptionist staff loves them. I don't know what you mean by conference

headsets together. If the headset is connected to a phone that is
conferenced-in with another phone that has a headset, I think you'll
accomplish what you are talking about. Does that make sense?

Take a look at www.tigerdirect.com to see their list of headsets.

I believe Plantronics has their own connector on the end of the H series
headsets, and you just buy the adapter for whatever phone you have.. so you
buy the headset + the cisco phone adapter. I don't know for 100% sure that
all H series are compatible, just all that i've seen and they seem to work
well.

Seems to me I read that the H Series were all compatible, but dont remember
from where. may have been our SE.

Plantronics CS50's work pretty good but they aren't very cheap. Our
receptionist staff loves them. I don't know what you mean by conference
headsets together. If the headset is connected to a phone that is
conferenced-in with another phone that has a headset, I think you'll
accomplish what you are talking about. Does that make sense?

Take a look at www.tigerdirect.com to see their list of headsets.
