While using Bluetooth headset, there can be potential interference issues. Therefore Cisco recommends that
you reduce the proximity of other 802.11b/g devices, Bluetooth devices, microwave ovens, and large metal
objects.
For a Bluetooth wireless headset to work, it does not need to be within direct line-of-sight of the phone, but
some barriers, such as walls or doors, and interference from other electronic devices, can affect the connection.
