Audio bandwidth for desk phone and PC

Wideband audio delivers heightened speech clarity and life-like fidelity. However, wideband audio consumes more battery power and has more stringent access criteria, which reduces the number of systems that can be deployed in a small area. All PCs support wideband audio but your desk phone must support wideband audio to experience the benefit of selecting “wideband” for that device. When switching between narrowband and wideband audio, you must re-establish the audio link for the changes to take effect.

Bluetooth enabled

This feature disables/enables use of the Bluetooth interface to the mobile phone.

The Bluetooth interface to the mobile phone can also be disabled/enabled manually by pressing the subscription and base mobile phone button until the base mobile phone LED flashes. When the base mobile phone button LED flashes red four times, Bluetooth is disabled and when it flashes green four times, it is enabled.

A separate utility is also available at plantronics.com/software .

Auto connect to mobile phone

This feature automatically establishes a Bluetooth link to the mobile phone whenever the mobile phone is within range. See the following setting for an optional restriction on this function.

Stop auto connect to mobile when headset is docked

If this feature is enabled, the base will not automatically establish a Bluetooth connection to your mobile phone when the headset is docked. Upon undocking the headset, the base will automatically establish a Bluetooth connection if “auto connect to mobile phone” is selected.

Initiate mobile voice commands

This feature enables/disables mobile phone voice commands for hands-free dialling with your mobile phone. When this is enabled, you will be prompted for voice commands by your mobile phone when a call is initiated with the base mobile button. This feature requires mobile phone support for voice commands.

Over-the-air subscription

This feature allows a headset to be subscribed to the base without physically docking the headset. It is required when conferencing multiple models of Plantronics headsets.

For more on subscription, see Base subscription buttons. For more on headset guest conferencing, see Conference up to three additional headsets.

W720A-M, W710A-M specifications

The Plantronics W710A-M and W720A-M are advanced wireless headsets designed specifically for energetic workplaces that demand high-quality audio and seamless communication. Both are equipped with state-of-the-art technologies, making them ideal choices for professionals who prioritize sound clarity, comfort, and connectivity.

The W710A-M features a single ear design, providing users the convenience of keeping one ear open for ambient sounds while still delivering superior audio quality. This model is perfect for those who work in busy environments and need to stay aware of their surroundings. In contrast, the W720A-M adopts a dual-ear configuration, ensuring an immersive audio experience that blocks out background noise effectively. This allows for deep focus during important calls or while engaging with multimedia content.

One of the major highlights of both models is the DECT 6.0 technology, which facilitates a secure and stable wireless connection. Users can roam up to 300 feet from their desks without losing call quality, a crucial feature for multi-taskers or those who prefer flexibility in their workspace. Furthermore, the W710A-M and W720A-M integrate wideband audio capabilities, enhancing voice clarity and making conversations seem more natural - a significant aspect for customer-facing roles.

Battery life is another prominent feature, as these headsets can provide up to 12 hours of talk time on a single charge. Additionally, both models support 'smart sensor' technology that automatically answers calls when the headset is worn, and can instantly mute calls upon removal, catering to the needs of busy professionals.

Comfort is paramount, especially for those who wear headsets for extended periods. The W710A-M and W720A-M incorporate plush ear cushions and a lightweight design. The adjustable headbands ensure a custom fit, allowing for all-day wear without discomfort.

Both headsets are compatible with a variety of softphones and Unified Communications systems, making them versatile tools for modern workplaces. Additionally, with integrated IT management tools, the devices be easily monitored and updated to ensure that they meet organizational standards.

In summary, the Plantronics W710A-M and W720A-M offer a robust set of features including superior audio quality, long-range connectivity, exceptional battery life, and a focus on user comfort, making them suitable for today's fast-paced work environments.
