Range**
Range can be minimised to help with desk phone/PC buzzing, improve user density, or restrict range
of users.
High
When range is set to HIGH, a user will have up to 107 meters of range.
When range is set to MEDIUM, a user will have up to 45 meters of range.
When range is set to LOW, a user will have up to 15 meters of range.
Audio
bandwidth**
The system will support both narrowband and wideband audio from the desk phone and PC.
Narrowband
desk phone
and PC
Wideband audio delivers heightened speech clarity and life-like fidelity. However, wideband audio
consumes more battery power and has more stringent access criteria, which reduces the number of
systems that can be deployed in a small area.
Your desk phone must support wideband audio to experience the benefit of selecting "wideband" for that
device. All PCs support wideband audio.
When switching between narrowband and wideband audio, you must re-establish the audio link for the
changes to take effect.
*Assumes use of lifter or EHS cable with desk phone and/or use of a softphone that is supported by PerSono Suite software.
** When bringing up a link from the base, the talk button will be solid yellow until a link is established. This could take up to several seconds
especially for wideband audio and/or when in moderate to high density environments. If you press the talk button when the indicator light is
yellow, it will terminate the search for an audio link.
