The modern work landscape has become increasingly dynamic. Contact centers continue to be hubs for customer interaction, while hybrid work arrangements are becoming more commonplace. In both scenarios, clear and efficient communication ranks high in importance.. This is where premium wired headsets like the EPOS Impact 700 Series come into play.
What's In The Box
Designed for Exceptional Customer Interactions
For contact center professionals, exceptional customer experience hinges on clear, uninterrupted, distraction free communication. The EPOS Impact 700 Series addresses this need with a focus on crystal clear audio quality and a comfortable design for extended wear.
Industry-Leading Noise-Canceling Microphone:
One of the hallmarks of the Impact 700 Series is its microphone technology. The EPOS Impact 730 and 760 headsets come with an industry-leading noise-canceling microphone that effectively filters out background noise. This ensures your voice is transmitted clearly, even in loud call centers filled with coworkers and ringing phones thanks to EPOS Ai noise canceling technology. Customers won't be distracted by background noise, fostering a more positive and productive interaction, while maintaining a professional image.
The microphone boom arm is flexible, so you can bend it so it's positioned correctly to the side of your mouth. The microphone boom arm can also be placed on your right, or left side, whichever you prefer. Many headsets limit the boom placement to one side only.
Three Ways To Mute
To mute the microphone, you have three ways to do this:
- You can press the mute button on the inline controller
- You can raise the microphone boom arm
- Or, you can remove the headset where the proximity sensors will mute automatically.
If you begin speaking when the microphone is muted, the LED on the tip of the microphone boom arm will begin to flash. This is to alert you that your microphone is muted.
Open Office Certified. The EPOS Impact 730 and 760 are Microsoft Open Office certified, which means they’ve undergone rigorous testing to assure they’re capable of navigating the noisiest of office environments. This alone should give you peace of mind when considering the Impact 700 if noise is a known issue in your workplace.
Multiple Models for Personalized Comfort:
The Impact 700 Series caters to different preferences by offering both single-ear (Impact 730) and dual-ear (Impact 760) speaker options. Those who prioritize a lighter, more discreet feel might prefer the single-ear option. For maximum noise isolation and a truly immersive audio experience, the dual-ear configuration would be the better choice.
Microsoft Teams Certification: For professionals who rely heavily on Microsoft Teams for communication and collaboration, the EPOS 700 series offers models that are Microsoft Teams-certified (typically designated with a "T"). These models enjoy seamless integration with the Teams platform, offering dedicated controls for call management and mute functionality directly on the headset itself. This eliminates the need to be at your desk for access to these functions.
Beyond the Microphone: A Feature-Rich Experience
The EPOS Impact 700 Series goes beyond exceptional microphone performance to deliver a comprehensive and user-friendly experience.
Premium Design and Comfort:
EPOS prioritizes user comfort with a focus on high-quality materials and a lightweight design. The matte black finish exudes a professional aesthetic, while the soft memory foam ear cushions and adjustable headband ensure a comfortable fit for extended wear during long call sessions.
Weight also plays an important role in comfort, and ready yourself for what these headsets weigh.
- EPOS Impact 730 weighs 2.8 ounces / 80 grams
- EPOS Impact 760 weighs 4.0 ounces / 115 grams
As headsets go, these are extremely lightweight which means you can count on them being light enough to wear for long periods of time without fatigue and discomfort. Another reason to consider the EPOS 700 series headsets for your office or call center.
Unique Volume Control:
A standout feature of the Impact 700 Series is the innovative volume control system. Unlike traditional headsets with physical buttons for volume adjustment, the Impact 700 Series features a convenient volume wheel. This intuitive design allows for precise control over audio levels, making it easy to find the perfect volume for your needs. No more fumbling around with your fingers trying to find the volume buttons on the headset. Instead, the controls are conveniently located inline on the cable, and closeby for easy access.
Eco-Conscious Design: EPOS demonstrates its commitment to sustainability by using 100% recyclable packaging for the Impact 700 Series. This eco-friendly approach aligns well with the growing focus on environmental responsibility within businesses.
Unveiling Additional Functionality
The Impact 700 Series includes a range of additional features that enhance the overall user experience:

You can answer/end calls, adjust volume, and mute your microphone directly from the controls, minimizing distractions and allowing you to focus on your conversation.No more fumbling around to find buttons across the headset because they are all within easy reach.
Busylight Visible From Any Angle
Nobody likes to be interrupted while on a call, and the Impact 700 helps to prevent these. The Impact 730 mono, and the 760 duo headsets feature LED lights on the earspeaker housing. So when you're on a call, and need to stay focused, these busy lights alert those around you that you're on a call, and to not intrude. Fewer interruptions means better focus, and better focus means getting more done.
