and devices. The Cisco Headset 521 features a single earpiece for extended wear and comfort. The Cisco
Headset 522 features two earpieces for use in a noisy workplace.
Both headsets feature a 3.5-mm connector for use on laptops and mobile devices. An inline controller with a
USB connector is also available for use on the Cisco IP Phone 8851, 8861, and 8865 with Multiplaform
