3. Use a patch cable.
A patch cable may be used to connect directly to your cellular or cordless telephone.
The patch cable connects to the headset connector of your telephone on one
end and the auxiliary connector of your Neptune Connect on the other. An Audio
Interface Cable is available from AB, or you may require a custom-made patch cable
from an independent vendor. Consult with your clinician or an AB representative for
further information regarding this option.
4. Use a speaker phone.
Use of a speaker phone eliminates the need for additional equipment when using the
telephone. Simply turn on the speaker phone and communicate in your regular manner.
