Polycom Trio 8500 for smart conferencing in business meetings unveiled

Plantronics-owned brand Polycom has launched Trio 8500, that is touted to be the perfect communication tool for mid-sized conference rooms. The company has said that Polycom Trio 8500 takes an ordinary conference call experience to the next level. The device can be used for voice as well as video calls and comes with the same interface as Skype.

The company has spoken about the presence of Polycom HD Voice technology that makes the voice of all the speakers crystal clear. Furthermore, the device also lets users share data with others by just pressing a button. Polycom has also said that it has tried to keep navigation on Trio 8500 as simple as it can be.

Polycom Trio 8500 comes with an advanced sound quality that includes HD Voice and Polycom Acoustic Clarity technologies. We should add here that the device is also said to have industry-leading full duplex, echo cancellation, and noise reduction with advanced voice processing. Polycom also says that since Trio 8500 has a pick up of 14ft/4.3m, it works well for a mid-sized conference room.

The device also has Polycom’s patented Noise-Block technology that offers an uninterrupted experience by automatically detecting non-speech noise and muting the microphones. Furthermore, the technology automatically unmutes them when they detect speech, so conferences can move seemlessly.

Polycom Trio 8500 can be used as a conference phone or even for video-conferencing for Polycom Trio Visual+ with a qualified USB camera. It has been designed to make business-class video conferencing and content sharing cost-effective.

You can also connect wired or wireless devices to Polycom Trio 8500 via USB or Bluetooth while using cloud conferencing or VaaS solutions. The company has worked with software giant Microsoft in order to design the device in a way that it maximizes the power of Skype for Business and Office 365.

According to the company, only Polycom Trio conference phones can claim Skype for Business certified distinction and extend the simplicity of Skype for Business from the desktop to the conference room. The device also ensures that all this is done consistently.
