Cisco Unified 8961 User Manual

Bluetooth Headsets
(For Cisco Unified IP Phone 9951 and 9971 only.)
The Cisco Unified IP Phone 9951 and 9971 support 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 (1- to 2-meter) range.
When using Bluetooth headsets with your phone, these conditions apply:
•
You can pair and connect up to five Bluetooth headsets to your phone, but the last Bluetooth headset
connected becomes the default for use with the phone.
•
After a Bluetooth headset is connected, turning it off and reconnects it to the phone. The following
instructions apply when using the Bluetooth headset:
◦
If you have both a Bluetooth headset and an analog headset attached to the phone, only one type
of headset works at any time. Using a USB headset disables both the Bluetooth and analog headset.
◦
Enable the Bluetooth headset to disable the analog headset.
◦
Disable the Bluetooth headset to enable the analog headset.
◦
Unplug the USB headset and then enable either the Bluetooth headset or the analog headset.
•
For optimum headset coverage, use your Bluetooth headset within 10 ft of the phone, although Bluetooth
coverage extends to about 30 ft from the phone.
•
Your phone supports the Bluetooth Handsfree Profile. If your Bluetooth headset supports these features,
you can perform these call functions from your Bluetooth headset:
◦
Answer a call
◦
End a call
◦
Change the headset volume for a call
◦
Redial
◦
Caller ID
◦
Reject
◦
Divert
◦
Hold and Accept
◦
Release and Accept
For more information, see the documentation from your Bluetooth headset manufacturer.
While using Bluetooth headset, there can be potential interference issues. Therefore Cisco recommends that
you reduce the proximity of other 802.11b/g devices, Bluetooth devices, microwave ovens, and large metal
objects.
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, can affect the connection.
