SEAMLESS: DESIGNED FOR HOW PEOPLE WORK

Plantronics Aware, part of the Plantronics Spokes software portfolio, is an Android app developed for the Cisco DX Series. It provides seamless audio transfer between a smartphone and any Cisco DX Series device using the proximity detection of a Plantronics Voyager Family Bluetooth headset: Voyager Legend, Voyager Legend UC, Voyager Edge, Voyager Edge UC.

Now, back to Carl’s experience. Using proximity awareness to detect his Voyager Legend headset, the app senses his approach and the Cisco DX Series device automatically displays a message that provides Carl with the option to transfer his call to the Cisco DX Series device. If Carl has joined a video conference call, he can opt to transfer the conversation to his Cisco DX Series device, and Plantronics Aware will automatically connect the video call.

SECURE: ALWAYS-ON SECURITY

Plantronics Aware also offers another layer of security on top of the security capabilities already built into the Cisco DX Series. The smart lock automatically locks/unlocks the Cisco DX Series device screen using the proximity detection of a Voyager Bluetooth headset. The Plantronics Aware smart lock feature allows you to calibrate the lock/unlock distance for your headset, making it easy to configure a personal definition of “nearby” to match the security needs of your office layout.

The smart lock feature is easy to use. When a user walks away from their desk with their Voyager Bluetooth headset, Plantronics Aware detects their customized proximity setting and automatically locks their Cisco DX Series device screen as they move out of range.

PLANTRONICS AWARE: THE CONTEXTUALLY INTELLIGENT APP

Plantronics Aware is aptly named for its primary advantage—awareness of the user and their supported Plantronics headset location in relation to the Cisco DX Series device and, based on that awareness, offering the user seamless audio transfer options and screen-locking capabilities.

A HISTORY OF COLLABORATION

Partners for more than 15 years, Plantronics and Cisco technology is interoperability verified and fluently integrated to deliver the highest quality collaboration solutions for mid-sized to large businesses. Our unique contextual intelligence technology leverages knowledge of a user’s wearing state to inform apps and take actions, making it simple to work anytime and anywhere.

Plantronics developers, working closely with Cisco engineers, created this contextually aware app that delivers unique benefits to users with the latest multimedia desktop collaboration tools from Cisco and the Plantronics Voyager family of Bluetooth headsets. The devices can work together to collect user information and use it to anticipate their needs, thus optimizing their business processes.
