Polycom has increased its range of VoiceStation conference phones with an extra two models targeted at the smaller meeting room/executive office market. One model is the first Polycom conference phone to feature Bluetooth wireless.

Both phones have a formfactor which is 33 per cent smaller than other Polycom models, and have the Acoustic Clarity Technology for quality, full duplex voice conferencing.

"Polycom is committed to delivering the ultimate communications experience while also making our industry-leading products available and affordable for businesses and meeting environments of all sizes," said James Anderson, Polycom Country Manager, Australia and New Zealand.

"The SoundStation conference phones are an icon for voice conferencing quality and reliability in conference rooms around the world, and we want to bring that renowned performance to smaller meeting rooms and executive offices. The VoiceStation 300 and 500 offer a solution that is small in size and price, but big in voice quality and performance," added Anderson.

The VoiceStation 500 features the same voice conferencing quality and performance as the VoiceStation 300, and adds embedded Bluetooth wireless support enabling users to connect wirelessly to a mobile phone for conference calls, or to a computer for use with Internet calling services such as Skype, making it an ideal desktop device.

If Bluetooth wireless capability is unavailable, users can also connect using an accompanying cable through an applications port on the phone. 

Polycom's VoiceStation line is designed for offices and smaller meeting areas only, while SoundStation is part of a broad product family designed for deployment throughout the enterprise including conference rooms, and other meeting areas, of all sizes.

The Polycom VoiceStation 300 and 500 is available now through Polycom certified channel partners priced in Australia at AUD$599 and AUD$739 respectively.
