I hear a buzz in my Plantronics headset; what is it cause?
Intermittent buzzing can be caused by electrical equipment located in the immediate area of the telephone and headset system, such as fluorescent lighting, computers, fax machines, typewriters, and power strips (surge protectors). Frequently, power cords and cables that are bundled together will cause buzzing.
The best solution is to keep this type of equipment separated from the headset, amplifier and telephone.
There are several factors that could be causing a buzz or humm on a headset. A lot depends on what model you are using.

Plantronics Vista M12/Plantronics Vista M22
Go to the slide switch settings on the left hand side of the Plantronics Vista M10/M12/M22. In some cases it should be set at 6 rather than 5. If that does not help the situation, the problem could be environmental, from electrical devices in your area. It could also be a compatibility issue with your telephone.
