Headset Buddy™ now Distributing Cisco-specific Adapters for Under-Served Cisco IP Phone Market

Headset Buddy offers interoperability for Cisco Office Phones.

Austin, TX (USA), Friday – February 17, 2012 — Long Tail Products formerly Webko Products, a marketing and product design company, has released a line of adapters under the Headset Buddy brand for adapting PC Headsets to Cisco office phones, including adapters for both computer and 2.5mm headsets. With the new Cisco compatible line, the company now offers support for: Cisco, Aastra, Avaya, Nortel IP, Plantronics, and Mitel phone systems.

Despite how commonplace the Cisco telephones have become in businesses across the world, there are few firms that provide business-quality adapters for Cisco phones, which require a unique RJ9 polarity that makes most generic and standard RJ9 adapters ineffective, at best. Ideal for sales outfits and call centers, the Headset Training Buddy is available in three models: dual RJ-9 female inputs and single 2.5mm male connector, dual RJ-9 female inputs and single RJ-9 male connector, and dual Cisco compatible RJ-9 female inputs and single Cisco Rj-9 male connector.

The Headset Buddy PC Headset to Cisco IP Phone has been confirmed to work with the following models: Cisco Unified IP Phone 79XX Series: 7911G, 7931G, 7940, 7941G, 7941G-GE, 7942G, 7945G, 7960, 7961, 7961G, 7961G-GE, 7962G, 7965G, 7970, 7970G, 7971, 7971G, 7971G-GE, 7975, and 7975G.
