Products to enhance your VoIP calls
In an effort to keep up with the rapid growth of the VoIP calling industry, Jabra has announced a new range of headsets and speakerphone solutions. The solutions include the Jabra Extreme that comes with a pre-paired USB adaptor, the Jabra Chill which is a corded PC headset and the Jabra Speak 410, a USB powered speakerphone.
Jabra has announced the expansion of its portfolio of products designed to offer a hands free VoIP solution for all of life’s situations ‚ from the dorm room to the board room. Locally, Jabra has recently launched two new products that enable multi-tasking through a simple plug & play installation process.
The rapid growth of the VoIP calling industry ‚ Skype, alone, has more than 560 million registered users worldwide ‚ has fueled demand for better headset and speakerphone solutions with top-of-the-line sound quality and features. Jabra is stepping up to the challenge, placing a strong emphasis on its line of VoIP-optimised products as communication trends indicate that consumers are turning to laptops, mobile devices, tablets and PCs to make majority of their calls.
Says Louis Yssel, CEO of Scientific Communications (SciCOM): ‚Jabra’s VoIP certified headsets are certainly a non-negotiable in an enterprise environment where mobility is a business critical aspect and where staff are able to easily connect their headset device with other business tools simultaneously ‚ increasing productivity and as a result, return on investment.‚
The new portfolio of products includes:
The Jabra EXTREME ‚ FOR PC ‚ the first product released from this VoIP-optimised suite – comes with a pre-paired USB adapter that automatically connects to a PC and Skype software for the simplest plug and play experience to date. The EXTREME ‚ FOR PC also makes poor quality calls a distant memory and can simultaneously be paired to both your PC and your mobile phone. Designed for the true road-warrior who refuses to sacrifice on sound quality, the headset has been described by a Skype test engineer as ‚the best sounding/performing Bluetooth headset my team has put through our test laboratories.‚ These multiuse products can take both Internet and mobile phone calls seamlessly and clearly.
This Jabra SPEAK410 ‚ FOR PC is a USB-powered speakerphone that brings the convenience of instant speakerphone calls anywhere using Skype. The Jabra SPEAK410 ‚ FOR PC is a plug & play voice-conferencing solution that requires no additional set-up and comes with a mobile carrying case, allowing users to set up a mobile conference room in a matter of seconds. The product also features music playback capabilities so users can enjoy their favorite tunes while waiting for a VoIP conference call to begin.
Even the Jabra CHILL ‚ FOR PC corded headset ensures that Jabra has a VoIP-solution for everyone, as all of Jabra’s VoIP certified products provide crystal-clear sound quality so that even long-distance callers sound as though they’re in the same room.
