[Q&A] Microsoft Teams Speakerphones Vs. Laptop Built-In Speakers

May 12, 2022 by Ying-Hui Chen

Q: Why do I need an extra speakerphone when my laptop has built-in speakers and mic already?

A: It’s all about quality and reliability! For professionals who need to join important meetings or make simultaneous conversations efficiently, your existing computer built-in speakers might just not be enough! Let us break this down for you:

What are the benefits of using a Certified Microsoft Teams Speakerphone?

Professional Sound Quality

Don’t miss out on the best sound quality! With a right speakerphone, you are able to instantly turn any home office workspace into a professional conference room. Simply plug in a USB cable and start enjoying the best sound quality. These dedicated speakerphones will also help you reduce surrounding noise during important meetings.

Fully Compatible with Microsoft Teams & Zoom

If you are using Microsoft Teams or Zoom, choosing a certified speakerphone will streamline your call experience. Some certified speakerphones even have a dedicated Microsoft Teams button!

& Easy Call Controls

While your computer comes with built-in speakers, they are not as reliable as the plug-in USB speakerphone, in terms of audio quality, easy call controls, and clear status indicators.

To get you started – Here are a couple popular speakerphone options available:

Poly Sync 10 – NEW!

The Sync 10 has an integrated MS Teams button and an intuitive user interface for maximum productivity and ease of use. Designed for huddle spaces and home offices, this device comes with two-mic steerable array that reduces surrounding noise.

How To Deploy An Emergency Notification System Without A VoIP System

May 6, 2022 by Ying-Hui Chen

Can you deploy emergency notification endpoints into an environment without a Phone system? The answer is yes!

While phone systems make setup extremely easy and provide an extension number to call, they are not necessary; they are a convenience, not a requirement.

How to deploy an IP Call Button without a Phone System

Multicast allows you to send messages to a variety of CyberData endpoints from a single device; all without a phone system. Plus, compared to a traditional notification system, the costs are much lower with CyberData’s endpoints!

When a CyberData call button is depressed, a few things will happen:

A user uploaded audio message will be sent to all the Loudspeaker Amplifiers connected to the Network
The message will then repeat for a duration set on the device web interface
The Loudspeaker Amplifier will play the audio and an attached strobe kit will blink for the duration of the message in a color and blink rate set in the web interface.
