Description
The Poly RD-1 Ring Detector Electronic Hook Switch (85R71AA) provides remote call-answer capability for Poly wireless headsets connected to ShoreTel and Toshiba desk phones. The RD-1 detects the incoming ring signal on the phone line and triggers the headset base to alert the user, enabling hands-free auto-answer when used in combination with compatible Poly wireless headset systems. It is the appropriate EHS solution for deployments where other EHS cables don't cover ShoreTel or Toshiba environments.
Key Features
- Ring Detection for Auto-Answer: Detects the incoming ring signal and enables remote call answer from the wireless headset without returning to the desk.
- ShoreTel & Toshiba Compatible: Provides EHS functionality for phone models not covered by standard EHS cables.
- Wireless Headset Integration: Works with compatible Poly wireless headset bases to complete the hands-free call control solution.
