I cannot answer that with absolute certainty, but I can tell you what I know of it. I use mine at work, and it is hooked up to a Panasonic multi-line digital phone. The Plantronic is plugged into where the handset goes. The handset then plugs into the Bluetooth adapter. Before answering or receiving a call, you push the blue button on the base and then lift the handset. The phone then is streamed to the hearing aids via the Voyager. I hope this answers your question. If the phone is a cordless, I dont think ir will work. But the set up and pairing took all of 15-20 minutes and that includes testing and verfiying that it all worked. I cannot answer that with absolute certainty, but I can tell you what I know of it.

Hello Dave, I apologize for the late reply. Unfortunately we don't have the BT36 in stock. The manufacturer should have it in stock by the end of December. Would you like me to contact you if it arrives before Christmas? Please advise. Thank you. May 858-268-2340 may@sd-office.com

I'm sorry, I have not used it that way. It is a wonderful Bluetooth and the customer support is excellent. I got a follow up call after purchasing the unit from Plantronics asking if I had any questions or issues; Wow! that has never happened. I would give the company a call and ask them directly. Based on the conversation I had with them, I think they will be able to advise you.

I was unable to get the sony headset to work as a Bluetooth player with my bluedio headphones but it works excellent to send music from another Bluetooth device e.g. like a phone to my sony noise canceling headphones which I attach it to. It also works great as a wired player to non-Bluetooth headphones by playing music on the micro sd card. I wish it could work as a bt player to bt headphones but I think it is a receiver and not a transmitter for sounds and that is why it cannot broadcast TO bt headphones on its own but can act as a receiver of other devices transmitting over bt. Hope this helps. It is an awesome device.

I have not done that setup, but instead use the MDA200 and BT300 to pair with my Plantronics Voyager UC headset. It enables me use my Plantronics headset for either: 1) cell phone, 2) desktop phone, or 3) computer. It can only be used one at a time, but it works well.

Yes, I have one and it works. I had problems with the mic cutting out but resolved it by turning off the Dual Blue tooth pairing: Go into pairing mode (long press call button) when in pairing mode press the volume down button until the pairing light blinks three times. This sorted out the mic cutting out issue I had. I have lots of blue tooth devices and perhaps it was trying to pair with one of them?

I have been unable to get it working on an HP Z420 workstation with Windows 8 (not 8.1). Windows installs a driver automatically but the device stops before the Bluetooth stack looks like it ever gets loaded. Perhaps a driver would fix it, but I have yet to find one that works.

I talked to Plantronics about this and they are not available from Plantronics, and I could not find another supplier, so if you do please let me know.ThanksCarl

This blue tooth adapter can come broken, remove the old driver and reinstall. If that doesn't work, I would suggest that you return and buy a different adapter.

I actually had real issues with mine. Not sure if it was just a bad unit or what, but replaced it with this one: http://www.amazon.com/ORICO-BTA-402-Bluetooth-Adapter-Controller/dp/B00AKO7XOW which has the same chipset and features, and it works like a champ!

I believe it's compatible with the Bluetooth headset you mention. If the adapter is bluetooth and your headset is bluetooth, I imagine it must work because they're both bluetooth. Try it out and see what happens.

This headset does not work with windows so there are two things you can do: Possibility one: download additional proprietory software (forgot the name... search the skype forum... I tried it free for a few days and it worked... lousily) Possibility two (recommended): return this headset and get one that works with windows.

Yes. I have that same setup. You just need to make sure and get the USB bluetooth tranciever from Plantronics. I had to buy mine seperately from the headset but some are sold together with the headset.

Just checked and mine is no longer working either. I have them connected via cables to my pc so it's been a while since I used the bluetooth feature. Talk about disappointing. I can no longer recommend this company. I'm also having problems with my udac-2 which is luckily still under warranty.

I just read your comments and was wondering which product you were talking about. I also have a hard time finding a bluetooth or head phones that stay on my ears. I have almost completely given up on a bluetooth, but was considering trying one of the bluetooth headsets that go behind your neck or over your head? Any suggestions?

Thank you so much for your instructions and post on the msdn forums that linked back here. Why MSFT doesn't include native A2DP support in Windows 7 or any previous version of their OS is beyond me. Bluetooth is not really a 'new' technology anymore! Thanks again, TJ!-sent from a software engineer happily listening to Pandora via my HBS700 headset on my Lenovo T420
