Leading the new 9300 Series of headsets is the high-performance GN 9350 MOC, the ultimate example of wireless headset functionality.

The dual-function GN 9350 MOC wireless headset provides high performance in both traditional and PC-based telephone environments. That means you can expand, or even change, your telephone system without having to purchase new headsets. The GN 9350 provides all the benefits of hands-free mobility in a lightweight, ergonomic-and future-proof-design.

The GN 9350 Moc headset has several industry firsts: the first to offer full convergence between traditional and IP telephony, the first to provide DSP enhanced sound clarity and the first to offer IP telephony with wideband audio. For use with both traditional desk telephones and PC-based internet calling, the dual connection GN 9350 MOC always meets your needs.

The GN 9350e makes everything sound better. State-of-the-art Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technology removes impurities from the incoming signal, enriches sound quality, and maintains a safe, consistent volume level. The GN 9350’s sleek boom arm with noise-canceling microphone means your voice is always transmitted clearly.

The GN 9350e is also the first wireless headset for IP telephony that features wideband audio. Its impressive 6.8 kHz audio bandwidth is more than twice that of conventional telephony! Not only does high-definition sound give you the feeling of a true “face-to-face” conversation, it also helps increase your productivity because you hear every detail the first time.

Intuitive and easy to use, the GN 9350’s sophisticated LCD display lets you set call parameters, such as volume and audio output, to suit your individual preference. It also expands your communications potential with the new EXTENDED wireless range of up to 350 feet, conference call capability and, with an optional hot-swappable interchangeable battery, around-the-clock talk time.

Added to all this is the GN9350 MOC ability to interact with the Microsoft Office Communications system.

The GN 9120 is a cordless headset featuring a headset and a base unit that connects to the telephone so that you can either use your regular telephone handset or take it off the hook and switch to the 9120.

As for the headset, it’s more like a headset that you’d use with your mobile phone, and weighs in at approximately one ounce.

The base unit itself is sleek looking, and is square with a circular base. It features an inset at the top where you rest the headset when not in use.

This inset also doubles as a charging mechanism, which takes about 1.5 hours to fully charge.

Once you are fully charged, you then have the ability to mute, un-mute, answer a call, make a call, end a call, adjust the volume, and even enter conference mode, all from the headset.

If you’re wondering how far it goes, try 300 feet! I was able to stay on the phone as I walked to the end of my driveway to my mailbox. In addition, it will last for up to 8 hours of talk time before needing an additional charge.

Even nicer, you can literally be up and running in minutes. All you have to do is connect the device between your phone and its handset (receiver) and then lift your telephone handset off the base unit. You should now hear a dial tone through the GN 9210. If you don’t, you can move the telephone terminal switch to any position A-G to get a dial tone. For my test it worked perfectly out of the box, and I was making cordless calls moments after opening it up and hooking it to my existing off-the-shelf corded phone.

Here watch the video to see how easy it is to set up.

Special features

The headset comes in a few different formats. You can click on the link to see the different layouts in a new window.

GN 9120 NC has noise cancelling for busy noisy environments
GN9120 ST using sound tubes for quieter office conditions
GN 9120 MB more unobtrusive micro boom great for front of office

If you’re wondering about security, the GN 9120 uses digital spread spectrum, so the signal “hops” 90 times every second.

The coolest feature of the device is its ability to go into conference mode. What that means is that if you have more than one of these headsets, they can be joined to a conversation via the base unit. All you have to do is start the call and then place an additional headset into the base unit for a couple of seconds.

When you remove it a beep will be heard in the master headset (the one that initiated the call) and the person with the master headset has 15 seconds to accept the additional headset. You can have as many as four handsets join the conference using this method.

I can definitely see it being useful in an office environment, though, especially given the proliferation of cubes and lack of conference rooms in most offices these days.

The only thing missing in functionality out of the box is being able to actually hang up the call fully from the handset. So if you’re on a call and you finish, you can shut off the earbud but your phone is still off the hook. GN Netcom solved this problem with an add-on accessory called the GN 1000 RHL “Remote handset lifter.”

This device hooks onto the telephone and literally lifts the receiver off of the phone when you start a conversation and puts it back on when you finish. It’s a very cool concept.

Why use a wireless headset?

Here is a video to demonstrate one reason you might like to use a wireless headset.

The Jabra GN 9330 is designed to work with traditional desk telephones bringing hands-free convenience and superior audio quality to conventional office telephony.

GN 9330 provides you with clear, peak-free sound.

Noise-cancelling micro phone technology ensures your voice is always transmitted clearly, even when you’re moving through noisy areas. The GN 9330 headset connects effortlessly and quickly to your telephone.

Simple, intuitive headset controls make it easy to operate and with a weight of only 26 grams you’ll forget you are even wearing it.

With a range of up to 100 metres, you can take the call all over the office environment, reaping the benefits of hands-free flexibility.

If you want to escape the limitations set by your traditional telephone handset, the GN 9330 high-performance wireless headset pushes the boundaries, providing optimum range, all-day comfort and sound clarity.

Choose your perfect fit from 2 wearing styles… then charge it up and talk hands-free for up to 9 hours on a single battery charge! Enhanced wind noise reduction and a noise-cancelling microphone ensure that your voice is always transmitted with outstanding clarity. Plus, digital encryption keeps your calls safe and secure.

Extend your freedom with remote answering! — Answer and hangup without returning to your desk.

When your phone rings, the GN1000  sends an audible signal right through your GN9330e headset. To answer, simply activate your headset and your phone’s handset will be lifted off-hook automatically, so you can take the call. The handset is also lowered back into place automatically when you end the call.

No more mad dashes across the office.

And no more missed calls.

iPhone-compatible Bluetooth wireless headset.

Unlike all of the other iPhone-compatible Bluetooth wireless headsets we’ve tested, Sennheiser’s approach with the BW900 is intended to be holistic: this is a headset that’s supposed to be used with your mobile phone, and also with a land line.

If the latter part doesn’t make sense at first, here’s the concept: this headset comes with a charging cradle and power supply that you are supposed to hook up to a phone line, then use to answer incoming land calls. It also pairs with your iPhone (or other cell phone) to answer incoming mobile calls.

The BW900 includes a rechargeable battery, but unlike most competitors, the battery’s actually user-removable. Why? For business applications.

Taking advantage of the charging cradle’s potential, Sennheiser includes both a place to dock BW900 and a charging bay for a second battery, touting the device’s ability to maintain a call in progress—say, a protracted conference call or legal negotiation you don’t want to hang up on—while the battery’s being swapped.

Since the BW900’s battery runs for 4-5 hours of talk time depending on your distance from the cradle, you probably won’t need this feature unless you start a call with a partially discharged battery, but it’s an option.

One battery is included, along with a dummy piece of plastic that fills the battery bay hole when not in use.

Sennheiser BW900 Wireless Headset

There are some other major changes to what we’ve come to understand as the “standard Bluetooth headset mold.” Sennheiser, for instance, makes no compromises on size in order to achieve unusually impressive audio quality: the microphone extends via gooseneck-style memory wire all the way down to your mouth, where it’s either exposed or covered by a foam windscreen, and the slightly rubber-covered ear speaker (with three sizes of covers) pivots to match the shape of your ear.

It actually feels good on your ear. You wouldn’t expect that from the size, but it’s not heavy or hard to put on. The ear speaker slides outwards to let you slip BW900 on, then inwards to rest close enough to your ear canal to let you hear your callers without a problem. Sennheiser’s covers don’t use a lot of rubber or special padding, but they don’t have to, as this is more like having a small, good speaker right next to your ear than trying to squeeze something inside.

As surprising as it was to us by comparison with other, more isolating headsets we’ve tested, we liked the sound and the fit.

Small, compact and discrete Fast operation

I recently purchased this item and have used it for about a week so far. I’m very impressed with the range and this headset’s ability to shield itself from interference. There simply is no “buzzing” while downloading email to my BlackBerry while on the phone with this thing. It’s important to note that a headset band, three different sizes of over-the-ear-loops and about four ear pads are included with this package.
