Headset Instructions

Your telephone is designed to work with a headset that has a 4-pin, RJ-type connector. User
satisfaction for any particular headset can be quite subjective, so Mitel recommends that you try
before buying so you are more likely to be satisfied with the fit, quality, and cost of the solution.
This recommendation includes all wired and wireless headsets, including the integrated

Wireless Considerations: To operate, the Plantronics CS50 Wireless Headset must remain
within the system's range operating limit from the base. Refer to the Plantronics CS50 Wireless
