Setting Up the Cisco Unified IP Phone
Disabling the USB Headset
To disable the USB headset, disable the USB port (or disable the Audio Class parameter) that you
enabled in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration. Also, you can select another type
of headset in the Accessories window on the phone, thus disabling the previously enabled headset.
Analog Headsets
Analog headsets are supported on the Cisco Unified IP Phone 8961, 9951, and 9971. However, the
Cisco Unified IP Phone 8961, 9951, and 9971 cannot detect when there is an analog headset plugged in.
For this reason, the analog headset appears by default in the Accessories window on the phone screen.
(Press the Applications button
The main reason that the analog headset is the default is to allow users to enable wideband for the analog
headset. The phone is unable to detect if the headset supports the wideband codec, but the user can
enable wideband on analog headsets by following these steps:

Step 1
Select Accessories.
Step 2
Highlight the analog headset, then press the Setup softkey.
Step 3
Turn wideband on/off for the selected headset by using the on/off toggle.
Step 4
If the wideband on/off toggle is not enabled, follow these steps to make sure the user can enable
wideband codec on an analog headset:
Procedure
In Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, go to Device > Phone.
Step 1
In the Find and List Phones window, enter the search criteria for the phone to which you want to add the
Step 2
analog headset, then click Find.
Click on the Device Name you want; the Phone Configuration window displays.
Step 3
On the Product Specific Configuration Layout portion of the Phone Configuration window, be sure the
Step 4
option called Wideband Headset UI Control is enabled (enabled by default).
(Optional) Also on the Product Specific Configuration Layout portion of the Phone Configuration
Step 5
window, you can set the Wideband Headset option (also enabled by default) in that window.
