snom technology AG, developer and manufacturer of Voice-over-IP (VoIP) telephones has announced a new Wireless Headset Adapter for VoIP phones. which will make it possible for companies of all sizes to give users flexibility and mobility in the workplace.
Wireless headsets for VoIP are nothing new of course, but this Wireless Headset Adapter is a little different as it has an EHS, non-mechanical
interface between the snom IP phone and the wireless headset. Often, integrating a wirelesss headset with a regular (IP) deskphone introduces a mechanical device to lift the handset on the deskphone in order to answer and hang up the calls.
It allows for electronic
reception of calls on the headset itself, offering users the
convenience of using a stationary phone while roaming freely throughout
the home or office. snom recommends use of its Wireless Headset Adapter
with GN and Plantronics headsets.
"Our mission is to offer our
customers the latest and best in VoIP technology," said Jan McNair, VP
of GN, Office Stream. "With the option now available to use snom's
Wireless Headset Adapter with our headsets, customers no longer need to
feel tied to their desks when on the phone."
"Plantronics works
closely with the world's leading IP communications providers to ensure
full functional integration between our VoIP products," said Joe
McGrogan, director of Business Solutions at Plantronics. "Combining our
wireless headsets with snom's Wireless Headset Adapter enhances the
value of VoIP communications for customers with hands-free mobility and
the industry's best combination of audio, style and comfort."
When
the phone receives an incoming call, the ringing tone is signalled
through the wireless adapter to the headset. While some traditional
headsets require the activation of multiple buttons on both the portal
and the actual phone, users of snom's Wireless Headset Adapter can
answer and terminate calls with the touch of a button on the headset
itself.
"Wireless headsets
have become very popular in professional business environments,
particularly call centers," said Michael Knieling, CFO and executive
vice president of marketing and sales for snom. "Our Wireless Headset
Adapter is the bridge between professional VoIP telephony and
professional wireless headsets."
The snom Wireless Headset
Adapter is compatible with the snom 320, 360, and 370 phones.
