When you're outfitting a workspace in the business phones headsets category, the first big decision is how your calls actually happen. Do you work from a computer with a softphone and want a comfortable headset, or do you need a dedicated phone that sits on a desk? The EPOS Sennheiser SC 30 USB ML Headset for Skype for Business - Black and the RCA VISYS IP110 Business Class VoIP 2 Line Corded Phone System And Service Black take two different approaches. The EPOS headset and the RCA phone system solve the same daily calling problem from opposite ends.
Quick verdict
If Skype for Business is where you take calls and a USB headset is what you need, the EPOS Sennheiser SC 30 is the direct fit. If you want a fixed phone that can handle more than one call path, the RCA VISYS IP110 is the better match.

Product notes
EPOS Sennheiser SC 30 USB ML Headset for Skype for Business - Black
The EPOS Sennheiser SC 30 is a USB headset that pairs naturally with a computer. At 0.24 pounds, it is light enough for long calls, and the Skype for Business focus in its name tells you which softphone setup it is designed to support. If your workday is built around computer calls, this headset gives you a straightforward way to keep your hands free. The limitation is that it is a headset, not a desk phone. It depends on a computer and a softphone to handle calls, so it will not replace a standalone phone system. For someone who needs a device that rings on its own without a PC, this is not the right tool.
RCA VISYS IP110 Business Class VoIP 2 Line Corded Phone System And Service Black
The RCA VISYS IP110 is listed at USD 99.00. It is built as a two-line corded VoIP phone system, and its product type is identified as VoIP System, which makes its fixed-phone role clear. That makes it a strong option when you need a fixed phone with room for separate call paths. It is also listed as new and not a custom bundle, so the purchase is straightforward. The limitation is the price and the form factor: it costs more than the EPOS Sennheiser headset, and because it is corded, it is meant to stay at a desk. If your calls are entirely computer-based, you would be paying for phone hardware you may not use.
Final choice by use case
Choose the EPOS Sennheiser SC 30 when your work happens on a computer with Skype for Business and you want a light headset for hands-free calls. Choose the RCA VISYS IP110 when you need a standalone phone system and prefer a fixed unit over a headset.
