Sennheiser Skype for Business Headsets & 10ZiG Endpoints Make for The Best Combination in VDI Communication


Skype for Business Headsets

People and users everywhere have already or are becoming fans of Skype for Business (SFB) – the online communication tool that looks and feel like Skype but, has added productivity features undoubtably needed in your workplace environment. For instance, SFB tells you when someone is available, in a meeting, or presenting. It has super-strong security for calling, and it can broadcast meetings to large audiences. Options include both voice and video calls, and it syncs up with and works well with other applications and programs including Word and Outlook, etc.

In terms of a VDI environment, Skype for Business headsets and VDI endpoints are essential to the quality of the SFB virtual desktop experience. 10ZiG, a leading provider of Thin Client & Zero Client Endpoint devices for virtual desktops, and Sennheiser, a leading provider of audio solutions for business, recently came together to bring the best possible power, speed, performance, and sound to Skype for Business in a VDI environment. The combination of Sennheiser Skype for Business Headsets and 10ZiG Endpoint devices made this happen.

The Sennheiser team prides itself on never settling for only good sound within the audio world –they want to achieve the perfect sound. Likewise, the 10ZiG team never settles for only good devices in the VDI world – we want to provide the best possible Thin & Zero Client Endpoints for all applications and programs including Skype for Business.

Skype for Business Headsets and Client Endpoints in a VDI World

Skype for Business, with Citrix or VMware ready 10ZiG Thin & Zero Client Endpoints for example, can be used to offload audio and video communications peer-to-peer, or offload entirely to a central multi-party call or meeting. This can be done so with the most amazing sound quality available thanks to the recent partnership of Sennheiser Skype for Business Headsets with 10ZiG Endpoints. Sennheiser has a wide range of premium products including wired and wireless headsets and speakerphones, and 10ZiG Technology has a wide range of Thin Client & Zero Client Endpoint devices for virtual desktops for every platform.

SFB benefits include secure data, easy centralized deployment application, and user-friendly collaboration with all devices and platforms. Lower-associated costs are also possible with choosing communications to be conducted at endpoints, instead of a data center. All Sennheiser Skype for Business Headsets and 10ZiG Endpoints work hand-in-hand together to ensure the best possible customer experience, putting the customer’s focus on the discussed information, and not having to worry about delivery or audio.

Robert Fitzer, 10ZiG R&D Director, loves his Skype for Business Headset by Sennheiser, “I have the PXC 550 Wireless high-end model, and they are awesome. They are over-the-ear style with noise-cancelling and built-in speaker features. They are also Bluetooth-capable and have audio settings for voice and music. They work perfectly with my Thin Client.
