We outline the highlights of our latest Series release, including the features, benefits and what to expect.

This update to the ZERO8 provides the first of a series of planned enhancements to extend the functionality of this powerful midrange speaker unit. With the addition of telephony calls and line sharing, customers can now deploy a single device to the desktop where a telephone and speaker unit had been used previously.

## Release benefits:

- Reduced desk space and clutter
- The user has a single headset/handset (not two)
- Reduced TCO support overheads

### ZERO8 Features

- Small Form Factor – High Capacity Device – 8 Live Speaker channels + telephone or intercom call + group call = 10 powerful calls at once
- Handset, Headset and Hands-Free Microphone with Custom Designed Loudspeaker enclosure to deliver loud and clear in trading environments – this is a Speakerbus thoroughbred speaker.
- Simple to deploy, LAN connection with Power over Ethernet and automatic registration to iManager Centralised Management System Portal for global administration and compliance
- Full recording and compliance API supported by Speakerbus technology partners.
- Compatibility and interoperability with full Speakerbus range of iSeries devices and [ARIA](https://www.speakerbus.com/solutions-posts/virtual-trading-dealerboard-aria/) for:
