Equipment & Technology CapTel Telephone - The Captioned Telephone

CapTel 800

Be sure of what people say over the phone with the new CapTel 800. This remarkable phone works like any traditional telephone, but it also shows you written captions during your telephone conversations. Can’t quite hear what they say? Just check the captions!

CapTel 800i
CapTel 800i telephone is a telephone designed to display captions during your telephone calls. This phone also uses a caption service to transcribe the spoken words into captions. However, the CapTel 800i connects to both a digital phone line AND a high speed internet line. By using the internet connection to the captioned service, there is no need to dial the caption service first. image of captel 800i telephone
