Xtreme Technologies XLink BT HD - Only High Definiton Audio Bluetooth Cell to Home Telephone Adapter (One Cell Phone)

I received this item today. It was easy to pair with iPhone and it works great. I had tried another brand and the other brand had a hum in the sound I could not get rid of after trying everything. But this brand is a good, quiet sound and transmission is great and connects from anywhere in my house. I'm using with three Panasonic house phones connected to the iPhone.

Got my Xlink BT HD and am very pleased with it. Simple hook up and works exactly as advertised. My cell phone connected via bluetooth right away, and audio is excellent; clear and strong.Now when I'm home, my cell phone calls are routed through my antique rotary phones (see pics - I swap them out now and then); love hearing them ring and it's a gas using them for their intended purpose: communication.Great product, good price, highly recommended.

This XLINK HD product worked right out of the box. I thought we would need to find an installation manual to install it, but it turns out that there is almost nothing to do (you follow a very simple installation description which comes with the phone.) This XLINK HD works well with good voice quality with our up-to-date cordless multi-handset phone system -- our "housephone handset system". And the XLINK also works with a very old ATT pulse phone.Background:A while ago, we moved our landline number to a cell phone (because of poor landline provider support). We had expected to use the new cell-phone with our housephone handsets. This multi-handset product was supposed to work with cell-phones over bluetooth. This did work sometimes, but it was unreliable. After several weeks of attempting to make it reliable, we gave up and just used the new housephone cell-phone by itself.But, when I saw the XLINK product details, I decided to give it a try -- to connect our housephone handsets to the new cell-phone with our former landline number. The XLINK product immediately worked! Reliably!The house multi-handset product now functions just as it would with a landline (it doesn't know it is not connected to a landline). And the home answering machine is now back in service (but you need to adjust the number of rings so that the answering machine will answer before the cellphone goes to voice-mail).Finally, you can also use the cell-phone directly to make or receive a call if you choose, without disrupting the XLINK set-up. You can even take the cell-phone away from the house, and when you come back the XLINK will automatically reestablish the setup.There are 2 buttons on the XLINK BT/HD. The leftmost button establishes the bluetooth connection. The rightmost button is only used if you want to upgrade the software on the XLINK device.

I purchased this to test (and use) an old rotary phone from the 70's that I found many years ago. I never knew if the phone actually worked. But, now I know it does!This device has to be the simplest hookup I have ever encountered. Plug in your phone, hold the BT button, pair with your cell. Done. Really it is THAT simple.And, it works as you would expect. Pick up the handset and you hear the old dialtone. The only thing it is not re-creating is the "siren sound" you would hear if you had the phone off the hook for a period of time. The dialtone just lasts forever. Xtreme team, please add this to a next firmware!While the website of the Xtreme Xlink BT says that if you buy direct you won't have to update the firmware, that is not true. This arrive today on 12/3/2024 and the firmware was v30. The latest was v32 and that update (through the web interface on their website) took five or so minutes. But, it's easy and not a hassle. You can do it through their website or via a downloadable application for Windows.And, you want the app (or to use the web interface) as there are options to do lots of stuff. Most importantly ADJUST THE VOLUME of the headset and speaker.This is a great device, works great, reliable...just awesome to use an old phone again in an easy modern way.My hats off to the Xtreme team. Really...great job!
