Helping The Hearing Impaired

[ErickBCCNA]

Good Afternoon,

I am looking for a solution to help a hearing impaired client.  Is there solution that will convert speech to text and display it on the IP phone?  Or maybe an IP phone that provides internal amplification for the hearing impaired client?         

Thanks in advaced

Hi Erick,

We have quite a number of Hearing Impaired users that have used 7900 series

quite successfully but on occasion we have used in-line amplifiers

as well.

This one works really well and is inexpensive

Have a look (just an example)

There are some other links in this doc;

If you need some further clarification try;

Thank you very much.  We are going to look into the inline amplifiers for our hearing impaired users.  I appreciate your time.
