With the adoption of unified communications platforms in call centers, greater advancement in technology is required so that agents can meet high customer demands. In light of this, Jabra (News - Alert) recently revealed its new Jabra LINK 850 audio processor, which is compatible with both standard telephone systems and VoIP platforms, to make things a bit easier.

Along with a Jabra headset, the LINK 850 is expected to boost agent productivity, improve customer satisfaction and reduce employee turnover. The solution has been designed to include easy setup, use and maintenance for increased productivity throughout contact centers. Additionally, it can be connected to any phone with a modular connector and features easy USB power connectivity to PCs.

Sound quality is also drastically improved thanks to Digital Signal Processing (DSP) and phone line noise reduction features. Agents can now also understand customers more clearly, and therefore can more efficiently avoid repetition of information, improving call turn time and customer satisfaction. The volume control and muting capability furthermore increases efficiency of agents who can make more calls, explained officials.
