Businesses that value peak performance in communications will find that Yealink’s WH63-E2 headset delivers in every way. For professionals who spend long hours on calls, comfort and flexibility are non-negotiable. The Yealink WH63-E2 delivers both, offering multiple wearing styles and crystal-clear audio in one lightweight, reliable headset.

In this article, we review this impressive and versatile headset and explore the key features that make it appealing to both end users and resellers.

All-day comfort

The WH63-E2 is an essential part of Yealink’s headset portfolio. Weighing in at only 16 grams, it is one of the lightest headsets on the market today, making it ideal for long-term comfort. Everything about this headset makes it perfect for many hours of use, including 8 hours of talk time and over three full days of standby time. You can wear it and forget you have it on until you get your next call.

Four wearing styles

This headset lets users choose from among four wearing styles: using just the eartip to secure it in the ear, using an earhook for extra stability, putting on an over-the-head headband, or using a neckband that sits around the back of the neck.

Step C DECT wireless technology

The use of DECT as the wireless technology means a range of over 600 feet, allowing users to move freely throughout their environments. The headset uses DECT’s highest current security tier, called Step C, which means that the radio link between the headset and base uses newer AES-based algorithms, resulting in stronger pairing and safer, always-encrypted audio.

Two mics for advanced audio

The headset has two mics: one on the end of the boom mic that focuses on your voice, and one on the body of the device that listens to background noise. This combination allows the headset to use Yealink’s Acoustic Shield Technology to reduce noise from the environment, ensuring that only your voice is heard on the far end.

The headset speaker supports a wide frequency range of up to 14 kHz, producing high-quality sound so you don’t miss a single word.

Base station

The WH63-E2 sports an innovative base station that provides multiple functions. First, it stores your headset when you’re not wearing it. Second, as the headset rests on the base station, it is also charged automatically. A full charge can be achieved in just two hours!

Secondly, the base station provides multi-device call control, allowing you to quickly switch between IP phone and your PC. It also includes a ringer that alerts you to incoming calls if you’re not wearing the headset.

The base station has multiple connectivity options, including two Type-C USB ports for connecting to a PC and an IP phone simultaneously. It also has a mini-USB port for use with the IP phone adaptors needed for some IP phone models, as well as an additional port for use with a busy light. Both accessories are discussed later in the article.

Interoperability

The WH63-E2 comes in a Microsoft Teams Certified variant, specifically designed to operate with Microsoft Teams, as well as in a UC variant. The latter is designed to be compatible with over 100 platforms and operating systems, guaranteeing a seamless collaboration experience.

With the appropriate accessories, the WH63-E2 is compatible with all major IP phone brands, including Yealink, Cisco, Avaya, Poly, Mitel, Snom, and Grandstream.

The headset’s multi-device connectivity lets you connect it to both your IP phone and your PC or laptop at the same time. This gives you the flexibility to use it for online collaboration platforms as well as for your IP desk phone, easily switching between the two.

Accessories

Many of the capabilities of this headset are made possible by additional available accessories, including the following:

EHS62 desk phone adaptor: This adapter allows the headset to connect to a desk IP phone’s electronic hook switch (EHS) and/or auxiliary (AUX) port, providing remote call control such as answer/end, volume, ring, and alerts. This adaptor is required for interoperability with some IP desk phone models. This accessory uses the mini-USB port on the base station.
Telephone cable: This Yealink telephone cable is required for interoperability with some IP phone models. It also connects to the base station's mini-USB port to provide audio connectivity without remote call control. When used, call control can only be achieved from the IP telephone itself.
BLT60 busy light: This busy light indicator plugs into the specialized port on the base station and lights up using different colors to indicate your current status. When placed in a prominent position on the corner of the desk or the computer monitor, it lets others around you know if you’re engaged in conversation. The busy light also flashes red to indicate an incoming call.
Neckband: This handy accessory allows you to wear the WH63-E2 headset with a support around your neck, ensuring maximum comfort.
