The Jabra Pro 9450 Mono is a professional wireless headset system designed to provide seamless communication and remote call control capabilities, particularly when integrated with Avaya desk phones using the Jabra Link 14201-33 EHS (Electronic Hook Switch) cable. This system is engineered for users who require the freedom of wireless communication without compromising on call management efficiency in an office environment.
The primary function of the Jabra Pro 9450 Mono is to offer a high-quality, hands-free audio experience for telephone calls. It enables users to move away from their desk phone while remaining connected to calls, thereby enhancing productivity and comfort. The "Mono" designation indicates that it features a single earpiece, allowing users to stay aware of their surroundings while on a call.
A key feature of this system is its integration with Avaya desk phones via the Jabra Link 14201-33 EHS cable. This integration facilitates remote call control, meaning users can answer and end calls directly from their headset, even when away from their desk. This eliminates the need to physically interact with the desk phone for basic call management, streamlining workflows and reducing interruptions. The EHS cable acts as a bridge, translating signals between the headset base and the desk phone, enabling functions like ring detection, call answer/end, and volume control to be managed wirelessly.
The system comprises a wireless headset and a base unit. The base unit serves as the charging station for the headset and the central hub for connecting to the desk phone and power supply. It also houses the necessary electronics for wireless communication and EHS functionality. The headset itself is designed for comfort during extended wear, featuring a microphone for clear voice transmission and an earpiece for receiving audio.
Setting up and using the Jabra Pro 9450 Mono with an Avaya desk phone involves a straightforward connection process. First, the headset base needs to be powered by connecting the supplied AC adapter to an electrical outlet. This ensures the base unit is operational and can charge the headset.
The crucial step for remote call control is the connection of the Jabra Link 14201-33 EHS cable. This cable has distinct ends marked with red and blue bands. The end with the red band connects to the "AUX" interface on the headset base. The end with the blue band connects to the headset base socket marked with a phone icon, indicating its role in connecting to the telephone system. Finally, the single end of the EHS cable connects directly to the headset interface on the Avaya desk phone. This specific cabling ensures that the electronic signals for remote call control are correctly transmitted between the headset system and the desk phone.
Once physically connected, the system requires configuration to ensure optimal performance. It is essential to verify that the headset function is enabled on the desk phone itself. This might require consulting the phone's manual or contacting IT support. The headset base often has manual configuration options. For this specific setup, the Electronic Hook Switch setting should be configured to "DHSG," which is a standard protocol for EHS functionality with certain phone systems. Additionally, the dial tone switch on the headset base should be set to position "A" to ensure proper detection of the dial tone.
After initial setup, users can make a test call to verify audio quality. The system allows for adjustment of the headset microphone volume. If the caller reports that the user's voice is too loud or too quiet, the microphone volume can be adjusted on the headset or base until an optimum level is achieved. This ensures clear communication for both parties during a call.
The wireless nature of the headset offers significant freedom of movement. Users can walk around their office or workspace while on a call, allowing them to multitask, retrieve documents, or consult with colleagues without interrupting their conversation. The range of the wireless connection is typically sufficient for most office environments, providing flexibility and reducing the feeling of being tethered to a desk.
The headset typically includes intuitive controls for managing calls directly from the earpiece. These controls might include buttons for answering/ending calls, adjusting volume, and muting the microphone. The remote call control feature, enabled by the EHS cable, means that when the desk phone rings, the user will hear an alert in their headset, and they can simply press a button on the headset to answer the call, even if they are away from their desk. Similarly, they can end the call with another press of a button.
The Jabra Pro 9450 Mono is designed for ease of use and minimal maintenance. The primary maintenance aspect involves ensuring the headset is regularly charged. The base unit serves as a convenient charging dock, so simply placing the headset back on the base when not in use will keep it charged and ready for the next call. This helps to maximize battery life and ensures uninterrupted communication.
Cleaning the headset and base unit is generally straightforward. A soft, dry cloth can be used to wipe down surfaces to remove dust and grime. It is important to avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the device's finish or internal components. For the earpiece and microphone, gentle cleaning with a slightly damp cloth might be appropriate, but care should be taken to prevent moisture from entering any openings.
Regular checks of the cable connections are also a good practice. Ensuring that the AC adapter and EHS cable are securely plugged into their respective ports on the headset base and desk phone can prevent connectivity issues. Loose connections can lead to intermittent power, poor audio quality, or loss of remote call control functionality.
Firmware updates for the headset system may be released periodically by Jabra to improve performance, add new features, or address any software bugs. These updates are typically managed through a computer application provided by Jabra. Keeping the device's firmware up to date ensures that the system operates with the latest enhancements and compatibility improvements.
The robust design of professional headsets like the Jabra Pro 9450 Mono means they are built to withstand the rigors of daily office use. However, protecting the headset from physical damage, such as drops or excessive force, will prolong its lifespan. Storing the headset on its base not only charges it but also provides a safe and designated place, reducing the risk of accidental damage.
In summary, the Jabra Pro 9450 Mono, especially when paired with the Jabra Link 14201-33 EHS cable for Avaya desk phones, offers a comprehensive and user-friendly solution for wireless communication with remote call control. Its design focuses on enhancing productivity, comfort, and efficiency for professionals who rely on clear and flexible telephone communication.
