Using External Devices
The following information applies when you use external devices with the Cisco Unified IP Phone.
We recommend the use of good quality external devices that are shielded (screened) against unwanted
radio frequency (RF) and audio frequency (AF) signals.
Depending on the quality of these devices and their proximity to other devices such as mobile phones or
two-way radios, some audio noise may still occur. In these cases, We recommend that you take one or
more of the following actions:
Move the external device away from the source of the RF or AF signals.
