Use Electronic Hookswitch

When you use a headset that supports electronic hookswitch (EHS), you can place, answer, and end
calls by using controls on your headset. To use EHS, you need a headset that includes a serial control
interface in addition to the standard analog headset jack (RJ-9) interface. The serial control interface
requires an EHS adapter that you can purchase from your headset manufacturer.
Headsets that support EHS include a base unit that connects to your phone. The headset connects to the
base unit wirelessly, which enables you to use your headset even if you're some distance away from your
phone. Typically, you can work wirelessly up to 300 feet (91 meters) from your phone and still use the
EHS controls. Check with your headset's user guide for the precise range restrictions.
