2.Benefits and special features

The GN 8120 USB provides unique benefits and special features to deliver superior audio quality, including:

User accessible side tone which allows you to hear your own voice in the headset speaker. Side tone is part of regular telephone calls, but is not typically a part of Internet/PC-based telephony.

SmoothStream™ digital audio correction ensures cleaner, distortion-free, high quality sound by monitoring the line for “dropouts” and “lost packets”. It then smoothes the audio stream to reduce the resulting clicks, pops and hitches.

Microsoft® certified for use on Windows® 2000 and XP (also for use on Mac OS

9.0.4or greater), the GN 8120 USB is a true plug-and-play adapter. Just plug your GN Netcom brand headset into the adapter, and plug the adapter into the USB port of your computer (desktop or laptop).
