Polycom Electronic Hookswitch Cable for Plantronics Wireless Headsets

No more rushing back to your desk to answer calls.

The Plantronics APP-51 Electronic Hook Switch (EHS) module for Polycom enables wireless headset users to place or receive calls without the need to lift your handset.  This eliminates the need for a mechanical device such as the Plantronics HL10 Savi handset lifter.

When a call is received, you will hear a tone in your ear.  Simply press the talk button to answer the call.   Press again to hang up.

The APP-51 Polycom EHS supports the SoundPoint IP 320*, 321*, 330*, 331*, 335, 430, 450, 550, 560, 650, and 670 model phones.

The Plantronics Polycom EHS only works with the following Plantronics wireless headsets: CS510, CS520, CS530, CS540, all Savi 700 series, Savi WO300 & Savi WO350. Use the APP-5 for earlier model headsets.

With the Plantronics Polycom EHS, you will experience the following benefits when using Plantronics wireless headsets:

• Always be aware of incoming calls, even when away from your desk, with the headset ring alert.
• Freedom to move around the office and accept and end calls from wherever you are with your wireless headset call control button.
• Direct connection to your Polycom SoundPoint IP phone, which eliminates the need for a mechanical handset lifter device.

*The 320, 321, 330 and 331 require a 2.5mm to RJ-9 adapter, which is available from AAAHeadsets.
