Supported Audio and Video Hardware
Softphone can run with any Windows sound device supporting full-duplex quality.
If possible, audio devices are automatically detected and allocated to the Softphone.
Softphone supports simultaneous operation of two sound devices, e.g. a headset or USB handset for normal
calls and a USB handsfree unit for handsfree operation. It is possible to switch between the sound devices at
any time during the call.
For alerting, in addition to that the PC speakers can be activated to ring the phone.
For ease of use, similar to desktop telephones, Softphone supports USB devices for audio as well as for call
control, e.g. accepting and terminating a call. Softphone supports the “HID” standard for USB devices allowing
generic USB devices to be configured.
A number of USB devices have been tested with Softphone for interoperability, including Hook switch control as
well as dialing (if supported by that device).
