Plantronics Calisto Pro

Although pricey, this headset–and-phone combo lets you smoothly manage calls from your mobile, landline, and VoIP providers.

Simple setup; easily shuttles between VoIP, landline, and mobile calls; solid call quality

Awesome Headset

I bought this headphone as a backup to be used with my Calisto Pro unit, I also use it in my home office as a Bluetooth headset for conference call on my iPhone. Very reliable and durable headset and would recommend purchasing.

Good headset replacement
