Wireless headsets are design to be installed into the "handset" (not the headset port) of your Cisco IP phone. It does not work properly if you plug it into the headset jack. The headset jack is design for regular "corded" headsets. Please also see our Direct connect Cisco headset page to see some other recommended wireless headsets.

If you wish to have remote answering, you will need a Plantronics HL10 Lifter.
If you have a newer Cisco IP Phone models 7975G, 7965G, 7945G, 7962G, and 7942G, you can use Plantronics APC-4 Headset Hook Switch Adapter or Plantronics APC-41 Savi/CS500 EHS Cable Cisco IP Phones as an alternative for remote answering, eliminating the need for a HL10 lifter.
