For employees with hearing loss, phone calls can be one of the hardest parts of the workday. And with approximately 1 in 6 working-age adults experiencing some degree of hearing loss, the need may be more widespread than many employers realize.

Bridge was created to make workplace communication fully accessible for people with hearing loss. The compact hardware device connects to VoIP phones and computer softphones to deliver real-time captions for every call, helping employees participate on equal footing without changing how the rest of the team works.

But accessibility is only part of the story. In practice, Bridge is seeing the benefits extend further than expected. Captions can improve comprehension and retention even for people without hearing loss, and they can make it easier for employees to follow fast-moving conversations in a non-native language.

In other words, the Bridge captioning device can be a valuable accessibility tool while also bringing broader productivity and inclusion benefits to the workplace.

In this article, we take a closer look at this clever device and why it’s worth considering for virtually any unified communications or business telephony deployment, regardless of whether hearing accessibility is the primary need.

More connected devices, higher bandwidth demands, and crowded wireless environments are putting greater pressure on SMB networks.

Focus rooms have become essential collaboration spaces for small teams, quick project discussions, and hybrid meetings that require more privacy than an open office can provide.

With a compact all-in-one form factor, a triple-camera system, AI-enhanced video features, strong built-in audio, and support for both Microsoft Teams and Zoom, the A25 brings enterprise-grade meeting capabilities to focus rooms and huddle spaces.

In this article, we look at how the MVC S80 helps large-room meetings feel more natural, more inclusive, and easier to manage for both in-room and remote participants.
