What You Can Do with the Product

■ "Easy-to-talk" and "easy-to-hear" voice communications

The product is equipped with microphones with high voice-capturing capability and a speaker with high voice reproduction capability. It also provides high-performance audio signal processing functions, such as the adaptive echo canceller and noise reduction, providing "easy-to-talk" and "easy-to-hear" voice communications without skipping or noise.

■ Connection with various communication devices

The product provides three connection interfaces: "USB" for a connection with a PC or Mac, "Bluetooth" for a smartphone or tablet, and "EXT" for an analog connection with a videoconference system. Yo u can also use the "USB, Bluetooth, and EXT" interfaces at the same time (the audio mixer function enables this).

■ Using this product in various places

• Using this product in open workspaces By enabling SoundCap, which is comprised of the "Far Field Noise Reduction (FFNR)", "SelfSilence", and "Self-Volume Balancer" functions, you can automatically mute distracting noise around you and deliver only the sound from the pick-up range (radius of 1 m) to the remote party. This also automatically adjusts the volume of the sound from the speakers based on the noise around you. * Use this product with SoundCap enabled.

• Using this product in a conference room Yo u can use this product in small to medium-sized conference rooms. It clearly picks up the sound in the conference room and enables high-quality calls using a powerful maximum volume. * Use this product with SoundCap disabled.

■ Extension through a daisy chain connection

Connecting two products by using an optional daisy chain cable allows the products to pick up sound from or transmit sound to a broader area. With this feature, the product can support a conference with many participants that is not achieved through a single device, or the use in a large room.
