Big Button Multi Telephone SP817BB
ILC Reference NO 61:20:016
Item sourced from ILC VIC database
Factors to Consider
· May assist people to more accurately press the large buttons to dial.
· Large buttons and colour contrast may assist some with vision impairment to see the numbers.
· May assist a user with a hearing impairment as the handset has a volume control, and it has a hearing aid coupler (therefore it is compatible with a hearing aid).
· May assist a user with a hearing impairment to know when there is an incoming call as there is a flashing light, and the ringer can be amplified in volume and the pitch can be changed.
· May assist a user with a soft voice when speaking on the phone as the outgoing speech can be amplified.
