Understanding Direct Connect Cables vs. Amplifiers:
When using any H-series headset, a Direct Connect Cable or amplifier is required to plug in between your headset and phone. Using a Direct Connect Cable will save you money versus an amplifier, but an amplifier will provide optimum sound quality and volume controls.
Direct Connect Cable:
- Less expensive
- Easy to install into headset port
- Takes up virtually no desk space
- Limited to use with compatible phones only (Your future phone may not be compatible and require an amplifier)
Amplifier: (Plantronics M22)
- Compatible with most phones
- Battery or AC powered to provide optimal sound quality
- Speaker volume adjustment
- Microphone volume adjustment (Key point that Direct Connect Cable doesn’t have)
- Lifting handset with each call may be required, depending on your phone
