Last Call for Plantronics CS55 Wireless Headset

Thursday, December 15th, 2011

The CS55 Wireless Headset manufactured by Plantronics went EOL (End of Life) on November 30th. What does this mean to you if you own this piece of equipment? Teltek can still repair it, but will be unable to reorder it or replace any of its parts, except possibly batteries.

Replacing the CS55 is the CS540. According to Teltek’s Plantronics representative, this headset is compatible with the 5400 series IP Office phones. The CS540 is the lightest headset in the industry weighing only 21 grams. It also provides a range of up to 350 feet from the base and a battery that will last up to 7 hours.

Avaya/Plantronics Headset Discontinued

Sunday, December 5th, 2010

Plantronics headset model AWH 55 designed to support Avaya telephones has been discontinued and replaced by the Plantronics CS 55 Wireless Headset. This new model now also requires an Electronic Hook Switch (EHS) adaptor to eliminate the need of the HL10 handset lifter from earlier models.  Click here to see Plantronics Headsets Transition Guide which shows the adapters or other equipment that is necessary for the headsets with the different phone series. You can also see below how the EHS Adaptor interfaces Avaya phone models. Note:  The adaptor plugs into the headset in two places and one on the phone; there is also  a second piece that then plugs into the adaptor and the actual phone. When contacting support to install your new Plantronics headset and EHS adaptor they will need which phone model you are trying to interface: Avaya 1408 or 1416, Avaya 1600 Series IP Phones or Avaya 9600 Series IP Phones.
