External Audio Connection for Polycom VVX 400

[Anonymous]

I'd like to connect my VVX 400 to an external audio mixer and microphone via the additional RJ9 port. I've tried an RJ9 to split (mic & spkr) 3.5mm adapter cable and get the mic signal coupling to the spkr. Thus creating an audio loop effect. Is there a Polycom recommended device that can be used to achieve what I'd like to do?

as an FYI - I use the phone for a radio program and want to communicate to listeners and feed the conversation over the airways simultaneously.

Thanks

Hello Riddimryda,

welcome to the Polycom Community.

This kind of usecase is not really what the phones or the headset port specifically are designed for.

I would suggest you look at something like a SoundStructure with a VoIP card.

Another option could be a SoundStation IP 7000 with the multimod module as this offers Speaker and Microphone ports.

Hi. Sorry I can't respond but have question about your setup and splitter used. My scenario is I have a client with an old paging system that connects to an amplifier via two wires. What will happen in my case is that communication will only be one-way so I'm not sure if the looping will be of concern for me. Could you let me know what adapter you used to take out of the VVX? Thanks.
