Cisco 8861 IP Phone - handset static/hissing noise

Hi,

 

I have a brand new Cisco 8861 (3PCC) phone; set up and functions all ok. I have a problem with the handset - when it is being used there is a background static/constant hissing noise. This is what I know about the issue:

 

  • It only occurs when using the handset; when on speaker phone I cannot hear it.
  • If you press the mute button while on a call it stops.
  • When using my iPhone (via Bluetooth) I don't get the same issue when using the same handset, it appears to be just for SIP calls.
  • If I touch the handset cord, it makes the static/hissing worse.
  • I have moved the phone around the office to a completely different environment (in case this was an issue to where the phone was placed) - this didn't fix the issue.
  • I have not tried a headset to see if this also suffers the same problem.

 

Set Up:

  1. Cisco 8861 phone, powered by PoE (TP-Link PoE switch - TL-SG1008P)

Any help would be appreciated as the noise is notably really annoying.
