Important Headset Safety Information

High Sound Pressure—Avoid listening to high volume levels for long periods to prevent possible hearing damage.

When you plug in your headset, lower the volume of the headset speaker before you put the headset on. If you remember to lower the volume before you take the headset off, the volume will start lower when you plug in your headset again.

Be aware of your surroundings. When you use your headset, it may block out important external sounds, particularly in emergencies or in noisy environments. Don’t use the headset while driving. Don’t leave your headset or headset cables in an area where people or pets can trip over them. Always supervise children who are near your headset or headset cables.

Third Party Headsets

Cisco performs internal testing of third-party headsets for use with Cisco IP Phones. But Cisco does not certify or support products from headset or handset vendors. Check with the headset manufacturer to confirm whether you can use it with your Cisco phone.

Note

The Cisco IP Phone 7811 does not support a headset.

Headsets connect to your phone using either the USB or the auxiliary port. Depending upon your headset model, you have to adjust your phone's audio settings for the best audio experience, including the headset sidetone setting.

If you have a third party headset, and you apply a new sidetone setting, then wait one minute and reboot the phone so the setting is stored in flash.

The phone reduces some background noise that a headset microphone detects. You can use a noise canceling headset to further reduce the background noise and improve the overall audio quality.

If you are considering a third part headset, we recommend the use of good quality external devices; for example, headsets that are screened against unwanted radio frequency (RF) and audio frequency (AF) signals. Depending on the quality of headsets and their proximity to other devices, such as mobile phones and two-way radios, some audio noise or echo may still occur. Either the remote party or both the remote party and the Cisco IP Phone user may hear an audible hum or buzz. A range of outside sources can cause humming or buzzing sounds; for example, electric lights, electric motors, or large PC monitors.

Sometimes, use of a local power cube or power injector may reduce or eliminate hum.

Environmental and hardware inconsistencies in the locations where Cisco IP Phones are deployed mean that no single headset solution is optimal for all environments.

We recommend that customers test headsets in the intended environment to determine performance before making a purchasing decision to deploy on a large scale.

You can use only one headset at a time. The most-recently connected headset is the active headset.

Audio Quality

Beyond physical, mechanical, and technical performance, the audio portion of a headset must sound good to the user and to the party on the far end. Sound quality is subjective, and we cannot guarantee the performance of any third-party headset. However, various headsets from leading headset manufacturers are reported to perform well with Cisco IP Phones.

Cisco doesn't recommend or test any third-party headsets with their products. For information about third-party headset support for Cisco products, go to the manufacturer's web site.

Cisco does test the Cisco headsets with the Cisco IP Phones. For information about Cisco Headsets and Cisco IP Phone support, see https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collaboration-endpoints/headsets/index.html.

A wired headset works with all Cisco IP Phone features, including the Volume and Mute buttons. These buttons adjust the earpiece volume and mute the audio from the headset microphone.

When you install a wired headset, make sure you press the cable into the channel in the phone.

Caution

Failure to press the cable into the channel in the phone can lead to cable damage.

Bluetooth Wireless Headsets

Cisco IP Phone 8845, 8851, 8861 and 8865 support Bluetooth. For a list of supported third party headsets, see http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/unified-communications/uc_endpoints_accessories.html.

Bluetooth enables low-bandwidth wireless connections within a range of 66 feet (20 meters). The best performance is in the 3- to 6-foot (1- to 2-meter) range. Bluetooth wireless technology operates in the 2.4 GHz band, which is the same as the 802.11b/g band. Interference issues can occur. We recommend that you:

- Use 802.11a, 802.11n, or 802.11ac that operates in the 5 GHz band.

- Reduce the proximity of other 802.11b/g devices, Bluetooth devices, microwave ovens, and large metal objects.

The Cisco IP Phone uses a shared key authentication and encryption method to connect with headsets. The Cisco IP Phone can connect with up to 50 headsets, one at a time. The last connected headset is used as the default. Pairing is typically performed once for each headset.

After a device is paired, the Bluetooth connection is maintained as long as both devices (phone and headset) are enabled and within range of each other. The connection typically reestablishes itself automatically if either of the devices powers down then powers up. However, some headsets require user action to reestablish the connection.

The Bluetooth icon indicates that Bluetooth is on, whether a device is connected or not.

Potential interference issues can occur. We recommend that you reduce the proximity of other 802.11b/g devices, Bluetooth devices, microwave ovens, and large metal objects. If possible, configure other 802.11 devices to use the 802.11a channels.

For a Bluetooth wireless headset to work, it does not need to be within direct line-of-sight of the phone. But some barriers such as walls or doors can affect the connection. Interference from other electronic devices can also affect performance.

When headsets are more than 30 feet (10 meters) away from the Cisco IP Phone, Bluetooth drops the connection after a 15- to 20-second timeout. The paired headset reconnects when it is comes back into range of the Cisco IP Phone. For certain phone types that operate in power-save modes, you can wake up the headset by tapping on the operational button.

Enable the headset before you add it as a phone accessory.

The phone supports various Handsfree Profile features that allow you to use devices such as Bluetooth wireless headsets for certain tasks. For example, instead of pressing Redial on the phone, you can redial a number from the Bluetooth wireless headset by following instructions from the headset manufacturer.

Cisco IP Phone 8811, 8841, 8851NR, and 8865NR do not support Bluetooth wireless headsets. These hands free features apply to Bluetooth wireless headsets that are used with the Cisco IP Phone8845, 8851, 8861 and 8865:

- Answer a call

- End a call

- Change the headset volume for a call

- Redial

- Caller ID

- Divert

- Hold and Accept

- Release and Accept

Hands free devices have different feature activation methods. Device manufacturers may also use different terms when referring to the same feature.

Important

Only one headset type works at any given time. If you use both a Bluetooth headset and an analog headset that are attached to the phone, enabling the Bluetooth headset disables the analog headset. To enable the analog headset, disable the Bluetooth headset. Plugging a USB headset into a phone that has Bluetooth headset enabled disables both the Bluetooth and analog headset. If you unplug the USB headset, you can either enable the Bluetooth headset or disable the Bluetooth headset to use the analog headset.

For information about how to use your Bluetooth wireless headset, see:

- Cisco IP Phone 8800 Series User Guide

- User Guides provided with your headset

Wireless Headsets

You can use most wireless headsets with your phone. For a list of supported wireless headsets, see http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/unified-communications/uc_endpoints_accessories.html

Refer to your wireless headset documentation for information about connecting the headset and using the features.

Set Up Wideband Codec

By default, the G.722 codec is enabled for the Cisco IP Phone. If Cisco Unified Communications Manager is configured to use G.722 and if the far endpoint supports G.722, the call connects using the G.722 codec in place of G.711.

This situation occurs regardless of whether the user has enabled a wideband headset or wideband handset, but if either the headset or handset is enabled, the user may notice greater audio sensitivity during the call. Greater sensitivity means improved audio clarity but also means that the far endpoint can hear more background noise: noise such as rustling papers or nearby conversations. Even without a wideband headset or handset, some users may prefer the additional sensitivity of G.722 distracting. Other users may prefer the additional sensitivity of G.722.

The Advertise G.722 and iSAC Codec service parameter affects whether wideband support exists for all devices that register with this Cisco Unified Communications Manager server or for a specific phone, depending on the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration window where the parameter is configured.

Procedure

Step 1

To configure wideband support for all devices:

1. From Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, choose System > Enterprise Parameters

2. Set the Advertise G.722 and iSAC Codec field

The default value of this enterprise parameter is True, which means that all Cisco IP Phone Models that register to this Cisco Unified Communications Manager advertise G.722 to Cisco Unified Communications Manager. If each endpoint in the attempted call supports G.722 in the capabilities set, Cisco Unified Communications Manager chooses that codec for the call whenever possible.

Step 2

To configure wideband support for a specific device:

1. From Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, choose Device > Phone.

2. Set the Advertise G.722 and iSAC Codec parameter in the Product Specific Configuration area.

The default value of this product-specific parameter is to use the value that the enterprise parameter specifies. If you want to override this on a per-phone basis, choose Enabled or Disabled

Headset Management on Older Versions of Cisco Unified Communications Manager

If you have a version of Cisco Unified Communications Manager older than 12.5(1)SU1, you can remotely configure your Cisco headset settings for use with on-premises phones.

Remote headset configuration on Cisco Unified Communication Manager version 10.5(2), 11.0(1), 11.5(1), 12.0(1), and 12.5(1) requires you to download a file from the Cisco Software Download website, edit the file, and then upload the file on the Cisco Unified Communications Manager TFTP server. The file is a JavaScript Object Notification (JSON) file. The updated headset configuration is applied to the enterprise headsets over a 10 to 30-minute time frame to prevent a traffic backlog on the TFTP server.

Note

You can manage and configure headsets through Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration version 11.5(1)SU7.

Note the following as you work with the JSON file:

- The settings aren't applied if you are missing a bracket or brackets in the code. Use an online tool such as JSON Formatter and check the format.

- Set the updatedTime setting to the current epoch time or the configuration is not applied. Alternatively, you can increase the updatedTime value by +1 to make it larger than the previous version.

- Do not change the parameter name or the setting will not be applied.

For more information on the TFTP service, see the "Manage Device Firmware" chapter of the Administration Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Manager and IM and Presence Service.

Cisco IP Phone Key Expansion Module Setup Overview

Key expansion modules add extra line appearances, speed dials, or programmable buttons to the phone. The programmable buttons can be set up as phone line buttons, speed-dial buttons, or phone feature buttons. But Simplified dialing is not supported on expansion modules.

Caution

The slots in the side of the phone are designed only for use with the spine connectors on the key expansion module. Insertion of other objects permanently damages the phone.

There are 3 expansion modules available:

- Cisco IP Phone 8800 Key Expansion Module—Single LCD screen module, 18 line keys, 2 pages, configure with one or two column displays.

- Cisco IP Phone 8851/8861 Key Expansion Module—Dual LCD screen module for audio phones, 14 line keys, 2 pages, configure with one-column display only. If you use Enhanced line mode, and you receive a call on a key expansion line, then a Call Alert displays on the phone, and the Caller ID displays on the expansion module line.

- Cisco IP Phone 8865 Key Expansion Module—Dual LCD screen module for video phones, 14 line keys, 2 pages, configure with one-column display only. If you receive a call on a key expansion line, then a Call Alert displays on the phone, and the Caller ID displays on the expansion module line.

The Cisco IP Phone 8851/8861 Key Expansion Module and the Cisco IP Phone 8865 Key Expansion Module require firmware release 12.0(1) or later, and Cisco Unified Communications Manager 10.5(2) or later to function. Enhanced line mode (ELM) is supported only on the Cisco IP Phone 8851/8861 Key Expansion Module and the Cisco IP Phone 8865 Key Expansion Module. ELM is not supported on the single LCD expansion modules.

You can use more than one expansion module per phone. The Cisco IP Phone 8851 and 8851NR support up to 2 modules. The Cisco IP Phone 8861, 8865, and 8865NR support up to 3 modules. But each module must be the same type. This means that you cannot mix audio expansion modules with video expansion modules. You also cannot use a video expansion module on an audio phone or an audio expansion module on a video phone.

Most calling features are supported on your expansion module, and they are configured by your administrator from the Cisco Unified Communications Manager. If a feature is available on the Self Care Portal, then you can add the feature to your expansion module.

When adding features to your expansion module, remember that each line button supports only one feature. You cannot add more features than the number of programmable line keys on your expansion module.

Also note the line mode when working with a key expansion module. In Session line mode, the first line key on the expansion module is line 6 of the phone template. In Enhanced line mode, it is line 11 of the phone template. Only the first 25 characters are displayed on a line.

Key Expansion Module Configuration on Cisco Unified Communications Manager

Key expansion modules are supported by most versions of Cisco Unified Communications Manager.

- Set up the Key Expansion Module in Cisco Unified Communications Manager

- Custom Background Images

Set up the Key Expansion Module in Cisco Unified Communications Manager

Expansion modules are enabled from the Expansion Module Information area of the Phone Configuration page on Cisco Unified Communications Manager. If you configure the expansion module incorrectly, an error message displays on the phone. You cannot configure the phone for a dual LCD module and then install a single LCD module. But your choice of expansion module is not permanent. You can configure another module if your needs change.

Before you begin

As a best practice, enable power negotiation on both the switch and the phone. This ensures that the expansion module powers up.

Procedure

Step 1

In Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, choose Device > Phone.

The Find and List Phones window appears. You can search for one or more phones that you want to configure for the Cisco IP Phone 8800 Key Expansion Module.

Step 2

Select and enter your search criteria and click Find.

The Find and List Phones window appears with a list of phones that match your search criteria.

Step 3

Click the phone that you want to configure for the Cisco IP Phone 8800 Key Expansion Module. The Phone Configuration window appears.

Step 4

If you have an expansion module with a single LCD screen, scroll down to the Product Specific Configuration area. Enable the One Column Display for KEM field for one-column mode, or disable the field for two-column mode.

Step 5

Scroll down to the Expansion Module Information section. Select the appropriate expansion module for the Module 1 field.

Depending upon your phone, your choices may include:

- CP-8800-Video 28 Button Key Expansion Module

- CP-8800-Audio 28 Button Key Expansion Module

- BEKEM 36-Button Line Expansion Module

Step 6

(Optional) Depending upon your phone model, you can add extra expansion modules. Repeat the previous step for Module 2, and Module 3.

Step 7

Click Save.

Step 8

Select Apply Config.

Step 9

Restart the phone.

Custom Background Images

You can customize a Cisco IP phone with a background image or wallpaper. Customized wallpapers are a popular way to display corporate logos or images and many organizations use them to make their phones stand out.

The phone analyzes the color of your wallpaper and changes the color of your font and icons so they can be read. If your wallpaper is dark, the phone changes the fonts and icons to white. If your wallpaper is light, the phone displays the fonts and icons as black.

But it is best to choose a simple image such as a solid color or pattern for your background. Also you should avoid high contrast images.

You add customized wallpaper in one of two ways:

- Using the List file

- Using a Common Phone Profile

If you want the user to be able to select your image from various wallpapers available on the phone, then modify the List file. But if you want to push the image to the phone, then create or modify an existing Common Phone Profile.

Regardless of your approach, note the following:

- Your images must be in PNG format and the dimensions of the full sized image must be within 800 pixels by 480 pixels. Thumbnail images are 139 pixels (width) by 109 pixels (height).

- Upload the images and List file to your TFTP server. The directory is Desktops/800x400. Restart the server after the upload is done.

- If you modify your Common Phone Profile, then add the new image to the Background Image field in the format mylogo.png. If you don't want the user selecting their own wallpaper, then uncheck Enable End User Access to Phone Background Image Setting. Save and apply the phone profile. Restart the phones so your changes take effect.

For more information on customizing wallpaper, refer to the following documentation:

- Customized Wallpapers Best Practices Cisco IP Phone 8800 Series (https://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/products/collateral/collaboration-endpoints/unified-ip-phone-8800-series/white-paper-c11-740036.pdf).

Attach the Phone Bracket to the Phone

Before you attach a phone to the wall, you attach the phone bracket to the phone. The phone bracket attaches the phone to the wall bracket, and it bears the weight of the phone. Ensure that the phone bracket is attached securely to your phone. Because each phone is slightly different, refer to the appropriate example to guide you.

Before you begin

Obtain a #1 Phillips-head screwdriver.

Procedure

Step 1

Keep the handset cord or headset cords attached, but remove any other cords from the phone base.

Step 2

Attach the phone bracket to the phone. Insert the tabs on the bracket into the mounting tabs on the back of the phone.

Step 3

Use the #1 Phillips-head screwdriver to secure the phone bracket to the phone with the self-tapping or the machine screws.

The following diagram shows how to disengage the locking tabs on the Cisco IP Phone 8800 series with a key expansion module attached.

Adjust the Handset Rest on Your Phone

Each Cisco IP Phone comes with a small removeable tab located in the phone cradle. This tab determines how the phone handset sits in the cradle. If your phone is wall mounted or if the handset slips out of the cradle too easily, you may need to adjust how the handset rests on this tab.

Before you begin

Obtain a coin or other similar object with a thickness of about 1.75 mm or 0.069 inch.

Procedure

Step 1

Remove the handset from the cradle. Place the edge of the coin in the space between the handset rest and the plastic tab. Remove the tab by quickly rotating the coin counterclockwise.

Step 2

Rotate the tab 180 degrees so the ridge points toward you and the smooth back faces down.

Step 3

Hold the tab between two fingers, with the corner notches facing you.

Step 4

Line up the tab with the slot in the cradle and press the tab evenly into the slot. An extension protrudes from the top of the rotated tab.

Step 5

Return the handset to the handset rest.
