Q: What is the Windows system requirement for using the UUSB 8 telecom adaptor?
A: The UUSB 8 is specifically designed to run on Windows PC platforms using native Microsoft sound drivers. No separate driver is therefore required when using Windows 98SE or higher.

Q: What can be done if the user has difficulty hearing the caller?
A: If a user has difficulty hearing the caller, try turning up the volume on the in-line call control device. If the problem persists, the user should consider switching from a single-sided to a double-sided headset.

Q: What can be done if the person on the other end of the line has difficulty hearing
A: If the person being spoken to has difficulties hearing the user, try adjusting the microphone boom arm. This is particularly important when using a noise-cancelling microphone, which should be quite close to the mouth (approximately 2 cm/less than 1 inch).

Q: How does a noise-canceling microphone work?
A: The noise-cancelling microphone filters out unwanted background noise. It does so by differentiating between sounds that come from nearby sources, such as from the mouth, and those from far away, which are then eliminated. Because of this, it is important that the noise-cancelling microphone is positioned close to the mouth (approximately 2 cm/less than 1 inch).

Q: What does "Wideband mean?
A: "Wideband refers to the frequency range supported by the headset when transmitting and receiving sound. According to the TIA* (Telecommunications Industry Association), wideband is defined as 150-6800 Hz.
