Jabra Evolve lets you stay in ‘the zone’ with Intelligent Call Transfer for Skype For Business

Jabra, a leading manufacturer of innovative audio solutions, today announced a groundbreaking upgrade to its newest product series, Jabra Evolve^TM. Jabra Evolve is the industry’s first series of professional noise-cancellation headsets supporting both the collaboration and concentration needs of knowledge workers in open office environments. In use with Skype for Business, Jabra Evolve can support call transfer from a Skype for Business desktop-based softphone call to a smartphone.  To transfer a call using the Evolve 40 and 80, simply un-plug the 3.5mm stereo jack stick from its control unit and the call will transfer to the user’s mobile phone.  Users can then insert the 3.5mm jack into the smartphone to continue the conversation or even continue the conversation using a Jabra Bluetooth™ headset.

The global success of the Jabra Evolve series stems from providing a crystal clear sound for every call made and received, with busy light and noise cancelling functions to support a personal concentration zone within today’s busy and crowded office spaces. Therefore, employees and customers both experience the best quality conversation and service. With Jabra Intelligent Call Transfer, that experience now follows the end-user when required to move a call from one environment to another – leaving their main work station.

“The Jabra Intelligent Call Transfer feature is a natural evolution to the Jabra Evolve feature set. Its primary functionality remains to create that personal “concentration zone” in open, loud and distracting workspaces,” said Holger Reisinger, Jabra Senior Vice President of Marketing, Products, Alliances and Global Accounts. “The Jabra Intelligent Call Transfer upgrade for Skype for Business, extends end-user confidence of being in control of their device environment as they bring their “concentration zone” with them.”
