Iformatio i these Applicatio Notes has bee obtaied through DevCoect compliace testig ad additioal techical discussios. Testig was coducted via the DevCoect Program at the Avaya Solutio ad Iteroperability Test Lab. 1 of 11
1. Itroductio These Applicatio Notes describe the cofiguratio steps required to itegrate Aget AG Headsets from Corporate Telecommuicatios with Avaya oe-x Commuicator usig a USB 2.0 chord. Corporate Telecommuicatios offer headsets (listed i Sectio 4) that ca be used with Avaya oe-x Commuicator coectig directly to the PC/Laptop that oe-x Commuicator is ruig o. The headsets the provide two-way audio. This solutio does ot provide call cotrol features directly from the headset, such as aswerig or termiatig a call from the headset. The headsets do offer volume cotrol or mute fuctioality. Corporate Telecommuicatios desig ad develop professioal headsets for the Corporate, Fiacial, Health, Govermet, Educatioal, Idustrial, Hotel & Hospitality ad Cotact Cetre market sectors. 2. Geeral Test Approach ad Test Results The iteroperability compliace test icluded feature ad serviceability testig. The feature testig focused o placig calls to ad from Avaya oe-x Commuicator with each Aget Headset verifyig two-way audio. The call types icluded calls to voicemail, to local extesios, ad to the PSTN. The Avaya telephoe user should be clearly heard ad observed without ay distortios or audio issues. The serviceability testig focused o verifyig the usability of the Aget AG Headset after restartig Avaya oe-x Commuicator s ad re-coectig the headset. DevCoect Compliace Testig is coducted joitly by Avaya ad DevCoect members. The joitly-defied test pla focuses o exercisig APIs ad/or stadards-based iterfaces pertiet to the iteroperability of the tested products ad their fuctioalities. DevCoect Compliace Testig is ot iteded to substitute full product performace or feature testig performed by DevCoect members, or is it to be costrued as a edorsemet by Avaya of the suitability or completeess of a DevCoect member s solutio. Avaya s formal testig ad Declaratio of Coformity is provided oly o the headsets/hadsets that carry the Avaya brad or logo. Avaya may coduct testig of o-avaya headset/hadset to determie iteroperability with Avaya phoes. However, Avaya does ot coduct the testig of o-avaya headsets/hadsets for: Acoustic Pressure, Safety, Hearig Aid Compliace, EMC regulatios, or ay other tests to esure coformity with safety, audio quality, log-term reliability or ay regulatio requiremets. As a result, Avaya makes o represetatios whether a particular o-avaya headset will work with Avaya s telephoes or with a differet geeratio of the same Avaya telephoe. Sice there is o idustry stadard for hadset iterfaces, differet maufacturers utilize differet hadset/headset iterfaces with their telephoes. Therefore, ay claim made by a headset vedor that its product is compatible with Avaya telephoes does ot equate to a guaratee that the headset will provide adequate safety protectio or audio quality. 2 of 11
2.1. Iteroperability Compliace Testig The iteroperability compliace testig was carried out o the latest firmware for Avaya oe-x Commuicator. There are two Aget AG Headsets that will work with Avaya oe-x Commuicator ad they are the AG-1 (moo-aural) ad AG-2 (bi- aural). The followig headsets were used for compliace testig. AG-1 AG-2 All test cases were performed maually. The followig features were verified: Placig calls to the voicemail system. Voice messages were recorded ad played back to verify that the playback volume ad recordig level were good. Placig calls from/to iteral extesios to verify two-way audio. Placig calls from/to the PSTN to verify two-way audio. Hearig rig back toe for outgoig calls. Togglig betwee hadset, speakerphoe, ad headset. Usig the volume cotrol buttos o the Avaya telephoe to adjust the audio volume. Usig the volume cotrol buttos o the USB chord to adjust the audio volume. 2.2. Test Results All compliace test cases passed successfully. The followig observatios were oted. This solutio does ot provide call cotrol features directly from the headset, such as aswerig or termiatig a call from the headset. 2.3.
