Phones and Headsets
Make the most of your Universe system
Most computers allow you to speak to an in-built microphone and use the PC’s speakers. This is not advised if high quality voice, mobility and privacy are important. For these reasons many people prefer to use a headset, an earphone or a handset
Headsets and Earphones
If you wish to have a headset or earphone for use with your Unified Communications system, you can choose between
i. Cordless or Corded. Cordless options that wirelessly connect to your computer, and a corded option that is plugged in. Cordless is required when you need to have more mobility, corded are generally cheaper.
ii. Over the ear or Intra ear. You can choose to have an “over the ear” model (good for call centres) and select either, one ear (monoaural) or dual ear (binaural). Alternatively, you can use intra-ear receivers of which there are three types called earpods, earphones or earpieces.
For all headsets and earphones, consider whether you need external noise and wind cancellation
For corded solutions, you should consider whether to have a USB, USB-C connection or a 3.5mm jack for connecting to a mobile phone or more than one options. Also consider whether you want to plug the headset into your handset.
For cordless connections check if your computer has Bluetooth capability. If it does not, you will need to buy a model with a plug-in dongle. Also consider;
- Battery life (talk and standby time)
- Voice controls to accept or reject calls (e.g. say “answer” or “reject”)
- Multi-point, meaning that you can connect to more than one device at a time
- Water and sweat proof
- Range for reception
