It connects to a computer via USB and works with the IP phone on the PC. Has great range. Like it a lot

I do not believe this would run with a phone because it did not use Bluetooth. This headset uses DECT wireless to communicate between the matin base and the headset. In using this wireless the range is greatly increased over Bluetooth or 2.4ghz wireless frequency.

The base has a USB that you plug into a laptop. It's main use is for VoIP, I don't see how you'd use this with a mobile device.

no, it is not bluetooth. the charging base has a usb plug in for PC/MAC to locate the driver.

this is like asking, "what dog goes well w/ this tail" : ) It works with almost every major brand so you don't have to worry about the phone system. check compatibility charts which can be found on line. (search " plantronics compatibility"). When you say office phone and you're talking about a residential office well then you need to confirm it will work with your individual phone. If you're talking about a multi-user system as found in most businesses (known as a PBX or Key system) then this headset is compatible with most systems.

There is an adapter that can be switched to either iPhone or Micro USB. That said, I would not waste my time with this phone. It had way to much static and noise on the line to had the volume of calls I needed.

This headset does not plug directly into an office phone. It needs the proper adapter and possibly an amplifier.

This unit is made to work with an office/home desk phone. You may also want to purchase the 'lifter' so that you can answer the phone thru the headset.

When I want to use my Panasonic while on my desk phone, I must hit talk and dial *11. Then the call leaves my desk phone and transfers to the Panasonic portable. It does not act as an extension phone. I do not know if there is a way for the Panasonic and the desk phone to be on the same call. I doubt it.

Staci, I'm not sure about a corded phone. Our office has the cordless and there is a jack on the hand piece. I suppose you could unplug the cord and replace it with the headset cord. It's the same receptacle. You will obviously still need the office phone to be plugged into the wall jack still. Hope this helps.

You can use your cell phone as a digital recorder (plug this earphone/mic) in the ear you use to listen to the office VOIP phone).

the phone will work when the power goes out provided that your phone company service is still on. the phone gets it power from the phone company unlike a portable unit that has a base that plugs into a wall outlet.

This phone plugs in a home or office. Have had it for years. I had to replace my old one. I like the last phone better because it had call announce. Have been used hearing the phone ring and not have to run over to see who is calling. If I had to do it, I would not purchase a phone without it. Hope this heps.

This needs a wall phone jack to plug into. You don't need to connect it to a telephone, just plugged into a jack.

It worked fine with my Bluetooth headset. I don't know what a viop phone is. However be warned - it will not work with a multi-line office phone. Well, it works, but the phone immediately dropped to a one-line phone, which doesn't work for most offices. This only works for home phones, or other single-line telephones.

No, it does not plug into my phone base. It plugs into the handset. My phone being cordless, has a port (hole) in the side of the phone (handset) that I plug into. In this way, I can plug the headset into the the portable phone, make a call, toss the phone in my pocket, and my hands are free to do housework, sewing etc without holding the phone.

Hi Vicki, Yes this works with a mobile phone (bluetooth). This device is plugged into my computer, my office phone, and via Bluetooth to my iPhone. Therefore, I use it to answer or make calls on my iPhone or office phone. Also, I can listen to my computer audio. Overall I really like this device. I love the comfortable double headset.

It is it's own phone. Just plug it into a phone jack, and electric, and you are good to go. I have a hard wired phone, and two wireless phones, and they all work OK.

It will work perfectly with that phone. In fact, that was the first model phone I used it on. I do recommend spending the extra to get the 'handset lifter'. It will make you truly mobile in the office because you will be able to answer without touching anything on the desk set, just the button on your ear!
