Will this phone work with a Plantronics headset? Doesn't seem to have a button to switch call to headset.

It does kind of work with it. I have the CS520 Plantronics on it and in order to answer or hang up from the wireless headset, you have to use the optional lifter. If you don't mind operating the headset from the phone controls there is a button for the headset on the front panel but you do have to program it in the software. It is a very nice phone but I am having a problem with people I am talking to complaining about an echo. Did not have this problem with the RCA deskphone this one replaced using the same Plantronics. No echo when using the phone's supplied handset.

You aren't able to directly answer the calls regardless of if your hands are clean/dirty/wet/dry. On the wire that connects the headset to the handset, the only controls you have are to control the volume and to mute/unmute the call. There are no controls for answering or hanging up calls. This would all have to be done from the handset.

My Plantronics phone is a T20 and the headset works perfectly. The only issue I can see is the place where it plugs into the phone. My phone has a [female] plugin for the headset that is like a standard phone cord has (male RJ11 moduler plug).

You will either need a headset and an amplifier combo and that will include everything you need to work. Or depending on the Plantronics headset you have you could get a direct connect cord that would plug directly into the phone without the amplifier.

This phone is not a stand alone phone. It has a base phone from which it receives the phone info. If you purchase the base phone, you can order a headset that works with the base phone, just as these hand sets do.

As long as the handset has a cord that will unplug it should work. This headset has plenty of volume. The volume on mine mine is only turned up about halfway.

I'm unsure whether all headsets have ear jacks or not. But I can tell you dealing with warranty issues and AT&T; has been a total nightmare with this product. The base unit quit working and when we returned the unit, they sent us a replacement with one handset (although we had not returned any handsets) and the base unit worked fine with the headset they sent, but we were unable to get the original four handsets to work, even after attempting to troubleshoot with AT&T.; What lousy service.

Not only does this headset support voice dialing (assuming that your phone does also) but it will last-number redial too. The instructions in the manual are vague, but if you hold the control on the earpiece for just 2 seconds, it will connect. The headset control requires a firm press to activate its features and if you hold it too long, it may simply turn off. I'd prefer a confirmation beep or two so I know for sure what it's doing.

When you turn the headset on make sure you hold the button until it is flashing both red and blue. Then have your phone search for it. This should work. I have mine on both my galaxy S5 and I phone 6. Hope this helps you.

The headset piggybacks on the handset cord, so anything that you can do with a handset can be done with the headset. I use multiple lines on my phone with this.

If your phone system has "phone line type ports for headsets" - meaning you can insert a headset into it on the main control box in your phone room (NOT on the phone itself) - then this most likely works and you simply plug it in there.

I would call the manufacturer to verify. I tried several different models only to find out our specific phone model didn't have a headset available. :( I hope you have better luck than I did.

Hi, It depends a little on the phone base you are paring with. This worked for me (AT&T Dect 6.0 answering machine base). 1. Remove the headset from the charger base 2. Press the Intercom/Handset locator on the master base unit (base "in Use" light turns on) 3. Return the headset to charging base (master displays "Registering") Ready to use.

In most models, there is an additional phone jack in the back of the phone for the headset plug. It should NOT replace the handset. It's in addition to it. So, once you plug the headset into the back of the phone, there will be a button on your phone's keyboard that looks like a headset. When you press that, it will enable the use of the "headset". To disconnect the call, just press the "headset" button again. You can switch back and forth between the headset use, speaker phone, and the handset. You'll get used to it very quickly.

Yes, both headsets are able to do all functions as a full set would..lol so if one gets lost..you may select each line to answer or dial out as you choose or check vm for example....also both have speakerphone capabilities as well as headset connections...but watch out for the size of the headset post ..you may need an adapter...

I actually don't know specifically about that phone. I have the super basic $25 ATT home phone. I did call them once had a bit of a challenge on understanding what phone was compatible with what headset. I would try calling Plantronics customer support and asking them if this headset is compatible with your specific desk phone. You may need the model number too. Hope this helps. I've had zero problems with the headset. I really like it.

I use this with my multi line phone system. However, I have to be at my desk to switch between lines. I can only place calls on hold, answer new calls, and transfer calls from my desk. There aren't those types of controls on the headset.
