Poly RD-1 EHS Cable | ShoreTel/Toshiba/Adtran/Allworx – 85R71AA

Product Overview

The Poly RD-1 EHS Cable (85R71AA) provides electronic hookswitch functionality for ShoreTel, Toshiba, Adtran, and Allworx desk phones when paired with Poly wireless headsets. This ring detector sends an audible alert to your headset when the phone rings, allowing you to answer and end calls remotely without returning to your desk.

The RD-1 eliminates the need for an HL10 handset lifter on compatible phones with native headset hookswitch control. A 3.5mm port on the inline module allows connection of an optional Online Indicator Light (OLI) to signal to colleagues when you're on a call.

Who Should Use This Product?

Ideal for organizations using ShoreTel IP phones (IP212K, IP230, IP265, IP560, IP565, IP655) who want remote call control with Poly wireless headsets.

Toshiba Phone Users

Perfect for Toshiba desk phone users (DP 5118, DP 5130, IPT 2008, IPT 2010, IPT 2020 series) requiring ring detection and remote answer capability.

Why Choose This Product

The Poly RD-1 EHS Cable enables true wireless freedom by delivering incoming call alerts directly to your Poly headset, no matter where you are within range. Answer and end calls with a single button press on your headset, eliminating the need to rush back to your desk when the phone rings.
