GN Netcom's 9350 DECT 6.0 Headset Reviewed (Verdict: Clear and Versatile)
Saturday, 02-September-2006, 15:17:13
The GN Netcom 9350 DECT Headset uses DECT, which operates at 1.9GHz, to provide range and quality not found on Bluetooth or other 2.4GHz headsets. Because it's on 1.9GHz, it doesn't interfere with your headsets, your WiFi, or your various other wireless devices clogging up that frequency.

It also works directly with DECT 6.0 cordless phones, if you've got any of those lying around the house. (945 clicks)
