Conference Phone Equipment

The Mitel 5310 IP Conference Unit provides full-duplex, advanced IP conferencing through sophisticated acoustic beam forming technology. With this new technology a microphone array focuses on the party speaking, virtually eliminating all ambient room noise and sidebar conversations.

More information on this unit can be found in the Mitel 5310 IP Conference Unit datasheet.

How It Works

This unit is provided as an attachment to the Mitel 5330, 5340, and 5360 IP phones, allowing you to manage your conference through familiar telephony controls, while eliminating the need for an additional LAN port.
