Headphone

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 headphone must use a optiPoint Acoustic
Adapter, regardless of the optiPoint model used. opti-
Point Advanced features include a built-in headphone in-
terface. However, an optiPoint Acoustic Adapter is re-
quired for connecting the headphone. When an
optiPoint key is configured for using a headphone (op-
tional setting), the system behaves as if a headphone is
connected. Therefore, it is recommended that when
you disconnect the headphone you change the key con-
figuration accordingly.
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 headphone can be connected to the built-in
interface on the telephone's rear panel using a RJ45
connector. The Headphone feature key must be pro-
grammed to answer calls.
Headphone models without an electronic hook key
(e.g., Plantronics) can be connected directly to the
handset's interface on a optiPoint (Entry, Basic or Stan-
dard) telephone, as well as through an optiPoint Acous-
tic Adapter or the built-in interface (optiPoint Advanced
only). However, in order to be detected by the system,
a Headphone key must be programmed, regardless of
the configuration being used.
When an optiPoint key is configured for using a
headphone (optional setting, the system be-
haves as if a headphone is connected. Therefore,
when you disconnect the headphone you must
change the key configuration accordingly.
[1] To install and configure a headphone, follow the instructions pro-
vided in its accompanying manual.
The "Mute" option should be activated/deactivated on the phone it-
self.
If you have any questions, please contact your system's support
technician.
