Bluetooth vs DECT- What's the difference?

 

Connectivity

There's many different variants to choose from in the Savi 8200 series of wireless headsets. The Savi 8200 Office series (8240 and 8245) will connect with your desk phone, computer and mobile phone.

 

Microphone

The Savi 8200 Office series has a noise canceling microphone and also has an added feature called "close conversation limiting" which allows you to further reduce unwanted background noise callers would otherwise hear. The Plantronics Hub is required in order to adjust this feature. 

 

Important note

If you're using a computer softphone, not all softphones have the feature built in where you can answer/end calls away from the phone from the headset. 

If the softphone is compatible, most likely you will also need the Plantronics Hub downloaded in order for the remote call answering feature to work on your headset.

 

What's the difference between the Savi 8240 and Savi W740?

The Savi 8240 will replace the Savi W740 and if you look at both side by side they are very comparable. These are the key differences of the Savi 8240 and W740.

  • More durable
  • Updated ear hooks for better comfort
  • Ringer in the charging base
  • Added close conversation limiting to further reduce background noise
