Headset

It is an accessory that can be installed on terminals to

replace the use of the handset and provide the user

with more comfort and with hand-free operation.

Models with electronic hook control (such as Siemens

Elipse 1.8 EHS and GN Netcom 9120) for answering

calls using a headset must use a 16 optiPoint Acoustic

Adapter, regardless of the optiPoint model used. opti-

Point Advanced features include a built-in headset inter-

face. However, an optiPoint Acoustic Adapter is re-

quired for connecting the headset. When an optiPoint

key is configured for using a headset (optional setting,

the system behaves as if a headset is connected.

Therefore, it is recommended that when you discon-

nect the headset you change the key configuration ac-

cordingly.

If you want to use a Siemens Elipse 1.8 EHS or GN Net-

com 9120 set without the electronic hook control

switch, you must use an optiPoint Acoustic Adapter for

optiPoint Entry, Basic and Standard models. For the op-

tiPoint Advanced, an optiPoint Acoustic Adapter is op-

tional. The headset can be connected to the built-in in-

terface on the telephone’s rear panel using a RJ45

connector. The Headset feature key must be pro-

grammed to answer calls.

Headset models without an electronic hook key (e.g.,

Plantronics) can be connected directly to the handset’s

interface on a optiPoint (Entry, Basic or Standard) tele-

phone, as well as through an optiPoint Acoustic Adapter

or the built-in interface (optiPoint Advanced only). How-

ever, in order to be detected by the system, a Headset

key must be programmed, regardless of the configura-

tion used.

[1] For installing and configuring a headset follow the instructions pro-

vided in its accompanying manual. For a view of the optiPoint rear
panel see ”Back panel: optiPoint 500”

The MUTE option must be enabled/disabled on the same equip-
ment.
If you have any questions, please contact your system’s Support
Technician.

When an optiPoint key is configured for using a

headset (optional setting, the system behaves as

if a headset is connected. Therefore, when you

disconnect the headset you must change the

key configuration accordingly.
