Jabra GN1000 Remote Handset Lifter – Auto-Answer for Wireless Headsets with Desk Phones (01-0369)

The Jabra GN1000 Remote Handset Lifter (01-0369) automatically lifts the handset of a desk phone when a wireless headset initiates or receives a call, enabling hands-free call answering from across the room — or anywhere within wireless range — without physically touching the phone.

The Telecom Spot Take

The GN1000 solves a practical limitation of wireless headsets used with traditional analog or legacy digital desk phones: these phones don't support electronic hook switch (EHS) signaling, so the headset base can't signal the phone electronically when a call starts. The GN1000 bridges this gap mechanically — it extends a small arm under the handset, lifts it off the hook cradle to open the line, then retracts when the call ends. It installs in minutes, requires no desk phone modification, and works with most standard handsets. For offices transitioning to wireless headsets without replacing phones, the GN1000 is often the missing piece that makes the wireless experience complete.
