  1. Can I use a headset with this phone?

Yes, you can use a headset. However, not all headsets are compatible. Visit the Plantronics Compatibility Guide and search for the Polycom VVX 600 to find a list of compatible headsets. Some phones will need a compatibility cable to function, the Plantronics Compatibility Guide will give the users a notice if they need this cable.

To use the Compatibility Guide, you can do the following:

Visit the Plantronics Compatibility Guide by clicking here.

Then select the desk phone icon.

Then select "Polycom" in the Vendor drop down box, and "VVX 600" in the Model drop down box.

Then select "View Compatible Solutions"

Then, check the box for "EHS Cable" on the left hand column.

From here you will be able to choose from compatible headsets.

Keep in mind, you are purchasing two parts per headset. For example, the headset (Voyager Legend CS) and the cable accessory (APV-51 EHS). The headsets typically run for $100-250 each and cable accessory for around $80-90. Plantronics has very good sales support. They can be reached at 800-544-4660. There are many other options, configurations, and manufacturers, so if you do not find anything you like or the price is not right, there are alternatives.
