Noise Reducing Handset
The Noise-Reducing Handset utilizes a sophisticated microphone to filter out background noise. It also filters out feedback commonly heard from paging systems.
The Noise-Reducing Handset uses a sophisticated microphone to filter out background noise. It also filters out feedback commonly heard from paging systems. It is also known as the Confidencer handset/microphone. Unlike standard microphones, which only have ports in the front, noise-canceling microphones have ports in the front and the rear. Since ambient noise enters the microphone from both ports, the same pressure is put on both sides of the diaphragm. Because the ambient noise doesn't cause the diaphragm to vibrate, it is not heard. Since speech is entering from only the front of the microphone, the diaphragm vibrates from only the speech, which means the background noise isn't heard. With a noise-reducing handset, the caller must speak directly into the microphone.
Each handset consists of the following elements:
- Handset type: Standard Receiver and Noise-reducing Microphone
