Cordless Handsets
The PowerTel 2702 combines two cordless handsets that can be left in their individual cradles or carried around the home. This is particularly useful for anybody with reduced mobility, allowing the handsets to be placed in any room in the house to eliminate the need to rush to the phone in another room when it rings.
Amplified Volume
The PowerTel 2702 Combo has been designed to provide improved control over both the ringer and receiver volume. There are six volume levels, in addition to a mute function, allowing the user to adjust the receiver volume up to 40dB and the ringer volume up to 90dB. There is also a choice of ten ringtones for optimal hearing.
The HD DSL sound provides low distortion with a built-in equaliser, which can be altered between four settings: natural, treble 1, treble 2, and bass. As the telephone is compatible with hearing aids, it means that audio can be adjusted to meet the needs of virtually any user, improving the quality of conversations and communication.
What Is the Range of the Handset?
The exact working range of the handset from the base will depend on several factors including building materials and wall thickness. The working range can be as long as 300 meters in an open air outdoor environment, while indoors the estimated range is roughly 50 meters.
User-Friendly Design
As well as providing greater audio control, the PowerTel 2702 Cordless Combo also offers improved usability. The large backlit buttons reduce the risk of numbers being misdialled, while the blue backlit display screens makes it easier to read both dialled and incoming numbers.
The visual alert provided by the LCD screens provides an additional prompt for incoming calls. This means that users, particularly individuals with reduced hearing, will be less likely to miss a call as the bright screen can catch their attention when in eyeshot.
Does This Phone Feature Caller ID?
Yes, this phone can display Caller ID. It will store the last 50 numbers, allowing you to scroll back through your last calls for reference.
