Obihai will soon release the OBi IP phone EHS cable kit to distribution. The OBi EHS cable kit will work with the OBi1062 and OBi1032 models only.
We would like to offer a handful of users a free OBi EHS cable in return for providing feedback / testing of the same.
In addition to the OBi EHS cable kit, Plantronics testers will need an APS-11 cable.
In addition to the OBi EHS cable kit, Jabra testers will need a Jabra LINK 14201-10 cable.
If you have an OBi1062 or OBi1032 and one (or both) of the above listed cables and are interested in helping Obihai with the testing of this cable kit, please contact support@obihai.com with your name, address and OBi IP phone OBi No. You must have a USA mailing address to participate. We will accept requests to participate in this testing for a couple days only.
Thank you,
Obihai Technology
Thank you so much for this!!! I sent my email in yesterday, hopefully i am selected! I use my 1032 daily with my headset.

I've been testing the new OBi 1032/1062 EHS cable with a Jabra PRO 9470 DECT 6.0 wireless headset. It requires the optional JabraLINK cable, which connects to the OBi cable via a RJ-45 female-to-female connector. Setup is dead simple, and it works flawlessly. It allows you to answer or hang up calls remotely, by pressing the button on the headset, using the default service provider for placing outbound calls, just as you would using the phone's speaker or handset.
So, good news for anyone who has this equipment (along with the caveat that the headset and cable cost more than the phone :P )

Thanks SteveInWa and Obi!!!
This is great news. I am a big fan of both the Jabra 9470 and my OBI 1032 :)
I also have the 14201-10 cable, so it seems like the only thing I need is the Obi female to female adapter.
Any insight on where I may purchase one?
If not available, a pin mapping would be appreciated and I'll get to crimping one this weekend ;D
Thanks!!

The EHS adapter/cable is being revised to work in combination with the optional "sidecar" attachment, so there is going to be an additional delay before it ships. The pre-release version of the adapter that I have will no longer work with the current firmware.
It isn't just a simple couple of wires and jacks; you can't make your own.
Hopefully, the wait will be over soon.

SteveinWA,
Thanks for the prompt reply!
Agreed, I can't wait to get this working.
Would you mind describing your current set up/functionality a bit more?
Interested in if you are using a straight RJ9 jack handset cable and hitting the headphone button to enable the Jabra...
whether you did the manual set up or if you got the automated one to work?
Pardon all the questions, I just want to make sure I get maximum functionality while we wait.
Please feel free to write me directly if you prefer.
Very much appreciate your contribution to us all here.
Herm
