Jabra, the brand popular for their wireless headsets have recently announced the launch of four new Unified Communications dedicated headsets for cost-effective UC deployments in their Jabra UC Voice series. These four headsets were designed specifically for companies looking for cost-effective means of deploying headsets across an organization and to accommodate for the different working styles and environments without compromising on quality. The brand states that in addition to headset solutions for light to heavy users, the Jabra UC Voice series features a portable headset developed for virtual offices, these days and is the industry’s first corded UC headset with a behind-the-ear wearing style and discreet form factor for video conferencing.

Now in India

Speaking at the launch, Ralph Ede, Managing Director of Jabra in South Asia said, “Today there are approximately 7.8 million users of UC. By 2015 that number is expected to skyrocket to 49.5 million. Optimization of these investments by adding the voice dimension to the UC experience and attaching headsets that offer superior sound, comfort and build will have a tremendous impact when wanting to ensure the right ROI.”

An official statement from Jabra states that with so many new users coming from a traditional desk phone environment, the most important factor for successful deployment and adoption of the technology is the headset, which completes this UC experience. With a series of easy-to-use UC headsets, these Jabra headsets pave the way for faster end-user adoption of the technology.

Jabra claims that as more companies deploy UC, there is a growing realization that audio plays a vital role in the success of the UC deployment. The audio quality at both ends of a UC conversation is critical; there are many other factors that make a headset perform beyond expectations.

With its new UC Voice series, Jabra builds on a long tradition of user-driven innovation and developing high-performance headset solutions. As the first company to have headsets optimized for Microsoft’s Office Communicator Jabra has a history of maximizing the benefits of UC with headsets that are comfortable, easy to use and at the forefront of the development. “In essence, this is a whole new category of cost-effective headsets,” said Ralph Ede. “The four headsets in the Jabra UC Voice series are both powerful and economical. They’re simple, durable, have superb audio and come from Jabra’s years of experience creating an award-winning portfolio.”
