DECT 6.0 and Noise Canceling Microphone for Enhanced Performance
With the CT14, you no longer have to decide between finishing that home office chore or taking that important call. Relying on the DECT 6.0 frequency (1.9 GHz) for all communications, the CT14 offers a roaming range of up to 300 feet and significantly better reception when compared to standard 2.4 or 5.8 GHz cordless phone systems. This added performance allows you to stay in range of your calls as you roam throughout your home. And because DECT 6.0 is used exclusively for voice communication applications, wireless networks and home appliances such as microwaves will not interfere with your calls. And by registering up to six dial pads to one base, you can get intercom and conferencing options--a great feature for multistory homes and large offices. The CT14 headset also features a flexible mouthpiece that can be positioned precisely where you need it, while its noise-canceling microphone transmits your voice clearly without the background noise that a busy home or workplace can produce. Versatile Headset Design and Convenient Dial Pad Features for All-Day Use
The CT14 features a 2-in-1 convertible-style headset, giving you the option of wearing it either over the head for long calls or conferencing, or over the ear. Either way, you get a comfortable fit that is designed for all-day use. With an integrated belt/clothing clip that allows you roam away from your desk during your calls, the ultra-compact dial pad is also designed for all-day wear. The dial pad conveniently puts controls for volume, mute, one-touch voice mail, and more within easy reach. It also offers several standard telephone functions, such as call waiting (requires a separate subscription through your telephone service provider) and redial. The dial pad also includes an easy-to-read backlit LCD caller ID display, a built-in memory that stores up to 30 caller ID numbers, and a built-in phonebook for up to 70 contacts. This dial pad offers up to 10 hours of talk time and 8 days of standby on a single charge, giving you the ability to talk all day. The CT14 is backed by a one-year limited warranty. What's in the Box

This review is from: Plantronics Cordless Headset Phone (CT14)
I received apparently one of the first Plantronics CT14 cordless headset telephones, and the bottom line is that there are no big surprises, which means I like the telephone given that I had high expectations in view of my previous experience with Plantronics quality. I did not have either of the previous models, CT12 or CT10, so I cannot compare to those. However at my office for a number of years I have been using a CS10 cordless headset system which works with a multi-line telephone, and I have become quite addicted to using a headset. Based on what I think is an objective test, the audio quality and volume of the CT14 are superb. The way I test that is to call my own voicemail and, during the same call, switch between various telephones while leaving a message. Then I listen to the recorded message, again switching among various telephones. That lets me hear the quality for myself, without relying on a person I am talking to for a report. One characteristic I am pleased to see included is that it is possible to chain dial from recorded numbers in the "phonebook." Thus, when I use a calling card with a 1-800 access number I can then access the PIN in the phonebook to have that dialed as well, followed by the number of the person I am calling. With some other telephones, after you have used the "phonebook" and the call is in progress, the directory scrolling keys change to a different function (e.g. volume) and all the remaining numbers must be dialed by hand. The only negative thing I have to say about the CT14 is that there is a higher level of background noise than I am accustomed to, which I suspect (but do not know for sure) is an inherent part of the DECT 6.0 technology which uses a single frequency band for both sides of the conversation, and uses time division duplex. So, digitally, a lot is going on behind the scenes, and I think I am hearing digital artifacts. This is mitigated somewhat because there is ample volume. So the volume can be turned down, which reduces the background noise, while still being able to hear the person on the other side. At some point I may compare to another DECT 6.0 telephone, or attempt to see what Plantronics has on this issue. (Update: I called Plantronics and a very pleasant rep assured me that the background noise I am hearing is not normal. The background should be quiet. He gave me an RMA number to send back the telephone for a replacement, but before I do that I am going to try the telephone someplace else. It is possible there is some sort of electrical interference unique to my house. Now that I finally have this telephone, I am very reluctant to part with it for any length of time. I really like it.) Earlier complaints regarding the predecessor CT12 concerned interference with Wi-Fi networks, and it seems clear that is not a problem with the CT14. The CT14 operates on a different frequency band (1920-1930 MHz versus 2400-2500 MHz), and that is an advertised feature of the CT14....

This is a great little phone, especially the fact that it's hands-free. I suffer from hand pain, and it seems that...
