How to Set Up Multi-Headset Conferencing Mode on the Yealink WH63

Introduction


The Yealink WH63 Wireless Headset offers a range of professional features designed to enhance productivity in any business environment. One of its standout features is the ability to hold multi-headset conference calls, allowing multiple headsets to connect to the same base for shared audio during calls. This feature is particularly useful for training scenarios where a supervisor needs to monitor a call or when a trainee is shadowing a more senior agent.

In this article, we’ll guide you through the steps to enable multi-headset conferencing mode on the Yealink WH63. This will allow you to easily manage group discussions and training sessions without external audio devices.

Step-by-Step Guide to Enabling Multi-Headset Conferencing Mode

Before You Begin:

  • Ensure your Yealink WH63 headset is properly paired with the base station and that the base station is powered on.
  • You can connect up to three additional headsets to the same base for conferencing.

1. Initiate or Join a Call

To start the multi-headset conference, first initiate or be on an active call with your primary Yealink WH63 headset.

2. Dock an Additional Headset

While on the active call, take an additional Yealink headset and dock it into the same base station as the primary headset.

3. Accept the Conference on the Primary Headset

A tone will play in the primary headset when the additional headset is docked. To accept the additional headset into the conference, press the Call Control button on the primary headset.

Once accepted, audio will be shared between both headsets, allowing participants to hear and speak to each other.

Note: When additional headsets pair into the conference, they are muted by default. Users can control the volume and mute settings individually without affecting the primary headset.

4. Adding More Headsets

To add more headsets (up to three in total), simply repeat the process by docking the additional headset(s) into the same base station and accepting them on the primary headset.

5. Managing the Conference

Each headset connected to the base will use its own tuning settings, allowing participants to individually adjust volume levels or mute/unmute their microphones during the call.

Example Use Case: Multi-Headset Conferencing for Training Purposes

One of the primary reasons businesses use multi-headset conferencing is for training purposes. For instance, a supervisor might want to listen in on a live customer call to provide feedback to a trainee or monitor the interaction.

In this scenario:

  • Trainee and Senior Agent: The trainee can wear one headset and interact with the customer, while the senior agent or supervisor listens in through a second headset, ready to step in if necessary or provide guidance after the call.
  • Real-Time Coaching: The supervisor can listen to the call in real-time and offer advice to the trainee while the call is happening, either through chat or after the conversation.
  • Call Quality Monitoring: This feature is also beneficial for quality assurance purposes. A QA manager can monitor a live call without disrupting the flow of the conversation between the agent and the customer.

Multi-headset conferencing is a simple yet powerful feature for training. It ensures that new team members are supported while handling live calls without compromising customer experience.

Ending or Leaving the Conference Call

  • To end the call for all headsets, the user of the primary headset can either press the Call Control button or dock the primary headset back into the base. This will disconnect all additional headsets.
  • If an additional headset user wishes to leave the conference, they can press their own Call Control button to disconnect from the call without ending it for others.
  • Ensure Strong Connectivity: All headsets should remain within the base’s wireless range to avoid audio dropouts or disruptions.
  • Mute Etiquette: When more than two people are in the conference, remind participants to mute their microphones when not speaking to reduce background noise.
  • Battery Check: Ensure all headsets are fully charged before starting the conference, especially if the meeting or training session will be lengthy.
