Q. How safe is the BIZ 2400 Series for users?
A. The Jabra BIZ 2400 Series features GN Netcom PeakStop technology, which protects users against the effects of any sudden loud sound spikes. For example, the high-pitch tone from a fax machine can be harmful to a headset user’s hearing. Many acoustic experts define acoustic shock as being exposed to a sound in excess of 135 dB SPL. In fact, lower sound levels can also damage the ears. The BIZ 2400 Series — like all other GN Netcom headsets — cuts off sounds at 118 dB SPL (RMS). The Jabra BIZ 2400 USB incorporates technology to ensure safe average sound levels, making it the world’s first corded USB headset. Used with the GN8210 digital amplifier Jabra BIZ 2400 headsets also comply with international health and safety directives to protect users against dangers associated with long-term cumulative noise exposure.
Q. Is there anything that blocks out unwanted noise?
A. Yes. The Jabra BIZ 2400 features GN Netcom’s Noise- Canceling system (NC) that blocks out unwanted background noise with greater precision than ever before and carefully distinguishes between your voice and any interference from other sound sources. There is also an option for an Ultra Noise Canceling (UNC) microphone for use in environments where there are extremely high levels of undesirable noise, and in which it is nevertheless necessary to maintain high levels of voice clarity in the phone conversation.
Q. How does a noise canceling microphone work?
A. A noise-canceling microphone filters out unwanted background noise by differentiating between sounds from nearby sources, such as from the mouth, and those from far away, which are then eliminated. Because of this, it is important that a noise-canceling microphone is positioned close to the mouth (approximately 2 cm/less than 1 inch when using the Ultra Noise-Canceling microphone to prevent “Voice-canceling”).
Q. Does the Jabra BIZ 2400 headset work with all GN Netcom amplifiers?
A Yes. The Jabra BIZ 2400 headset types are easy to connect to GN Netcom amplifiers via the standard GN Netcom QD (Quick Disconnect) interface.
Q. Can the Jabra BIZ 2400 headset be used with a computer?
A Yes. The Jabra BIZ 2400 can be connected to a computer via a GN Netcom USB adaptor, such as the GN8110, GN8120, Link 220, or Link 280.

Q. What can be done if the person on the other end has difficulty hearing?
A If the person being spoken to has difficulties hearing what the headset user is saying, try adjusting the position of the boom arm. This is particularly important when using a noise-canceling microphone, which should be quite close to the mouth (approximately 2 cm/less than 1 inch). In such situations, use of a GN Netcom amplifier such as the GN8210 is also recommended.
Q. What can be done if the headset user has difficulty hearing?
A If the person using the headset has problems hearing what the person on the other end of the line is saying, try turning up the volume level on the phone or amplifier. If the problem persists, the headset user should consider switching from a mono to a duo headset. In such situations, use of an amplifier such as the GN8210 is also recommended. This makes it possible to turn up the volume. Use of DSP (Digital Signal Processing) also helps adjust sound levels to match user preferences and requirements.
