Speakerphone Characteristics

GCA70-248

Place the telephone on a hard surface and away from table edges. Do not place the telephone in corners or enclosures. Do not let obstructions come between you and the microphone. Rooms with hard, flat surfaces that reflect sound may affect the sound-activated switches.

If you are using a handset and the other party is using a speakerphone, avoid breathing heavily into your microphone. Avoid other sounds that may affect the distant telephone’s sound-activated switches.

In some situations, such as when either you or the distant party are in a noisy environment, you may have to lift your handset to ensure a clear conversa- tion.

When both you and the distant party use speakerphones, the sound-activated switches can occasionally detect both voices simultaneously, thus blocking out both voices.
