· Latest edition to award winning Jabra Speak Series
Jabra, the leader in the development of professional communications and sound solutions, today announces the launch of the Jabra Speak 710 in Thailand. The premium, portable speakerphone is designed for professional and personal usage, and ensures great sound for both conference calls and music. The Jabra Speak 710 is a high-end personal device providing premium HiFi grade audio and a superior Unified Communication experience.
Now available for the first time in Thailand, the Jabra Speak 710 is the perfect business partner for business leaders and C-level executives. This highly mobile target group works on average almost 58 hours a week, of which they spend nearly 2.5 hours in meetings every day. Besides having a highly collaborative job, they also travel a lot - with 86 per cent of them spending up to ten days per month on the road1.
"The Jabra Speak 710 offers extended mobility combined with an immersive audio and true music experience. This makes it the exclusive business partner and music companion for any business leader and C-level executive," states Holger Reisinger, VP for Business Solutions at Jabra. "This truly personal Bluetooth speakerphone wrapped in a super sleek design is the perfect tool for everyone who cannot afford to have unreliable and uncomfortable collaboration tools."
To accommodate their lifestyle, business leaders and C-level executives require solutions that support mobility, collaboration, connectivity and flexibility. As they often work in a distributed team in different time zones, they need extended collaboration and mobility to enable conference calls whether they are on the road, in the office, at home, or in a hotel. 40 per cent of business leaders use speakerphones for conference calls once or twice a week, whilst 21 per cent will use them three to five times in a week2. However, far too often, audiences experience a major impact on the effectiveness of calls3. For a business group that spends a large amount of time on the phone and in meetings, this has serious effects on productivity.
First truly professional and personal conferencing device The Jabra Speak 710 is the first truly professional and personal conferencing device, boasting an Omni-directional microphone for up to six 'in room' attendees, 15 hours of battery life and a HiFi grade speaker for crystal clear conversation and music.
The Jabra Speak 710 builds upon the success of the Speak Series, which has sold over 1 million units worldwide. The Jabra Speak 710 delivers an audio performance twice as powerful as Jabra's market leader Jabra Speak 510. The new family member is designed with an incredible smart features enabling two units to be wirelessly linked together with the touch of a finger. Pair two devices and create an immersive sound or expand the room coverage from six to twelve attendees.
Compact design
Research shows a third of conference calls are delayed due to setup issues with connections and speaker phones, 15 per cent of meeting time is spent on 'getting started', and one of the most common frustrations is poor sound quality4. Bringing a plug-and-play, easy-to-use speakerphone experience with premium audio to offices and small conference rooms, the Jabra Speak 710 works with all types of smart devices. It integrates seamlessly with all Unified Communications platforms and eliminates the need for dial pad solutions – challenging the traditional hardware approach to conference calling.
With more power than ever before, the Jabra Speak 710 Series comes in a small, compact design, with an integrated folding stand for extra flexibility. Connect to a smart device or laptop in seconds via USB or Bluetooth via the enclosed dongle. This provides a 30 meter range for laptops or 10 meter for smartphones.
Powerful music speaker
Effortlessly switching between music and calls, the Speak 710 can become a powerful music speaker. Simply connect to an online music streaming service or music library on the mobile device.
