Yealink T46U, T42S, & T46S: Installing a headset

A Plantronics headset is no longer listed as a recommended headset, but will still work if this is what you own.

If you have a Plantronics headset, you'll also need the Yealink adapter. The Plantronics headset will come with a power cord, the base, and the audio cord. You will need to order the Yealink adapter separately.

1. Charge your headset. Take your power cord, and plug it into the back of your base on the far left side. Plug the other end into an outlet close by. Let your base charge for a minimum of 20 minutes. When your headset is fully charged, you will see a solid green light on the front right  side
2. After your headset is fully charged, connect it to your phone using the Yealink adapter. To do this, plug the larger end into the back of your base. The smaller end will go into the back of your Yealink phone

3. Connect your Plantronics audio cord. When you flip your phone over, you’ll see a photo with a picture of a headset. Plug the small end into the port and the other end into the headset base

4. Once everything is connected, press the headset key
