Zoom Switch

Take a look at some of the communication activities that are possible through a ZoomSwitch-engaged headset. Because your office headset takes the place of the computer’s speakers and microphone, all audio content and playback stays private.

• Listen to music between calls.
• Make calls using VoIP, Skype and similar applications.
• Review voicemail messages from your phone’s system or from the computer.
• Dictate into speech recognition software.
• Participate in on-line video conference calls.
• Listen to on-line webinars, training sessions, and product demos.
• Use with Avaya, Cisco and Nortel or other softphones to make PC-enabled calls.
• Engage in video chats.

Comment: this is similar in function to the GN Netcom SeleCT switch, but rather than simple 3.5 mm audio and microphone plugs to attach to your pc, it includes a USB sound adapter and connects to your pc via an available USB port. It appears to work extremely well. Functionally this is similar to combining a GN Netcom SeleCT switch with a USB sound adapter, but is a bit more streamlined and similar in overall cost. This device is recommended for use with both the Plantronics CS55 and Sennheiser BW900 microphones sold on this site.
