Highlights

	Bidirectional noise cancellation We offer you an optimized noise cancellation function. The noise cancellation is usually embarked on audio output side only however, we have embarked on input side as well so the other party will receive high quality sound as well.
	Wideband audio quality is supported Currently, most of IP telephone services are using G.711 codec which has 8000Hz sampling frequency. This is common codec for narrowband, and wideband uses 16000Hz bandwidth on the other hand. It is quite obvious from the number that wideband enhanced the audio quality two times more than the narrowband.
	Address Book Support Since the current versions of the Outlook and Vista address book are supported you can easily import your contacts into the AGEphone Business with a simple step. After importing, data in the address book can be edited separately to have all your contacts available for single click dialing.
	Quick dial fields Speed Dial Function or functions for changing the service provider for outgoing calls can be assigned to these buttons. If you click on a button that has no function assigned, a screen to set up assignments will appear. It allows you to register up to 30 numbers which is much more than other AGEphone products for yor convenience.
	Incoming Call Notifications Even if AGEphone Business is running in the background there is no need to worry about missing a call: You can have the program window or a small notification window pop up to announce that someone wants to talk with you. Based on whether or not the number is in your address book you'll also see the name of your caller so that you're always sure about whom to accept or hang up on.
	Transfer Calls Even if you need to transfer clients' calls to another department, or your colleague has called from outside and asking you to transfer the call to the manager... you can transfer and/or cancel by simply pressing a button!!
