NASHUA, N.H. -- Hands-free communication is essential while working on the road whether it is from a hotel, airport, or car. GN Netcom, a world leader in innovative headset solutions, has announced the Jabra GO(TM) 6430, a Bluetooth(TM) wireless headset that unites mobile phones and computer based VoIP, allowing for hands-free, unified communications anywhere, anytime. Optimized for Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 R2 and designed for use in a variety of environments, the Jabra GO 6430 delivers a clearer, more natural audio experience via wideband sound transmission and Noise Blackout(TM), a dual microphone technology that eliminates background noise.

Key workforce trends* show that employees are commonly away from their desk or out of the office, often missing important calls and leading many to cite headsets like the Jabra GO 6430 as an important tool to increase productivity. The Jabra GO 6430 features multiuse connectivity, allowing workers to manage calls seamlessly from both their computer and mobile phones. The Jabra GO 6430 includes a handy travel charger and the Jabra LINK(TM) 350 USB Bluetooth adapter that delivers wideband audio and a wireless range of 300 feet, freeing workers from the tether of their desktop phone. The GO 6430 also incorporates plug and play for easy set up with Office Communicator 2007 R2 and remote call control allowing users to adjust volume, plus answer, end, and mute calls directly from the headset. The efficiency and productivity gains from using a best-in-class headset in the workplace can contribute to a significant return on investment.*

"GN Netcom is a key partner for Microsoft in the unified communications space," said Moz Hussain, director of the unified communications group at Microsoft Corp. "Microsoft is dedicated to supporting innovative headsets like the Jabra GO 6430, which increases corporate productivity by letting users stay connected beyond their desktops in a variety of mobile office environments."

The Jabra GO 6430 allows workers to stay connected while on the go -- and with up to six hours of talk time, 100 hours of standby time, and an intelligent sleep-mode that conserves power when not active, there's no need to charge the headset even when on consecutive conference calls or webinars.

"The Jabra GO 6430 is a prime example of how hands-free and unified communications solutions are expanding away from the desktop office phone," said Mogens Elsberg, CEO, GN Netcom. "We are essentially increasing productivity for the mobile-centric user, whether a road warrior, a telecommuter, or an office worker who does not want to be bound to a desk and thus lowering cost of ownership by providing one headset for multiple environments."

The Jabra GO 6430 headset features added comfort and safety features as well. Improved ergonomics include lightweight, allergy tested materials, a comfortable ear hook and optional headband and neckband for use when in the office for all day comfort. Jabra SafeTone technology provides auditory protection shielding users' hearing by cutting off sound spikes and sudden loud noises, while maintaining safe sound levels throughout the day.
