Top Rated Nortel Compatible Headsets Reviews:
If you’re looking for a great headset solution for you Nortel phone, you’ve come to the right place. There are vast amounts of corded and wireless headsets systems compatible with your Nortel phone, which can make it confusing or overwhelming. Below you will find some useful tips and recommended items which will aid you in making an informative decision.
First, let’s determine the need for mobility. If the user is going to remain at the desk for the most part of the day, you may choose to purchase a corded headset. Purchasing a wireless headset system is always a great idea, however, corded solutions can be more economical if mobility isn’t required. A corded headset doesn’t mean that you’re bound to your desk. Majority of corded headset are equipped with a “quick disconnect” which enables the user to easily unplug their headset from the phone and walk away from the desk.
Secondly, choose the headset most suited for your environment. Do you work in a loud, crowded, or densely packed office? If so, you would probably want a noise cancelling headset. When referring to noise cancelling, it means noise cancelling through the microphone (customer will not hear excessive background noise.) Headsets can either cover one ear (monaural) or two ears (binaural). For those working in louder environments, the latter would be a better choice.
Finally, when choosing a headset, comfort is a key factor. If you’re like most of us, you’re going to be wearing your headset for many hours at a time. Fortunately, we offer a variety of wearing styles. The most common styles you’ll find are: headband (over the head), on the ear, and behind the neck. All of the headsets that we recommend are comfortable, lightweight, and can be worn all day with minimal discomfort.
