Frequently asked questions
Common questions about BLUEPARROTT from 3G Electric.
What is the wireless range of BlueParrott B650XT headsets?
The BlueParrott B650XT offers a wireless range of up to 300 feet (91 meters) when paired with a compatible Bluetooth device. This range allows users to move freely within a large vehicle cab, warehouse, or yard without losing audio connection. Actual range may vary depending on obstacles and interference. The B650XT also provides 36 hours of talk time and 600 hours of standby time, and it carries an IP54 rating for water and dust resistance. It features a bi-directional noise-cancelling microphone for clear communication in noisy environments.
How does the Parrott Button work on BlueParrott headsets?
The Parrott Button (also called Blueparrott Button) is a programmable control found on several BlueParrott models, including the B450XTNEW and M300XTSE. It can be configured via the BlueParrott app to perform functions such as mute, speed dial, or other custom actions. This allows users to quickly access common features without reaching for their phone. The button is typically located on the headset for easy access. The specific functions available may vary by model and firmware version.
What is the difference between the BlueParrott B550XT and B650XT?
The BlueParrott B550XT and B650XT differ primarily in talk time, standby time, and microphone type. The B550XT offers 24 hours of talk time and 400 hours of standby, while the B650XT provides 36 hours of talk time and 600 hours of standby. Both have a 300 ft wireless range and IP54 rating. The B550XT features a directional microphone boom, whereas the B650XT uses a bi-directional noise-cancelling microphone. The B650XT is suited for longer shifts or more demanding noise environments. Both models support Bluetooth connectivity and are designed for automotive and industrial use.
Is the BlueParrott M300XTSE earbud suitable for industrial environments?
The BlueParrott M300XTSE is a wireless Bluetooth earbud headset with a MEMS microphone and a customizable Blueparrott Button. It provides up to 14 hours of talk time and 420 hours of standby time. While it does not carry an IP rating like some over-the-head models, it is designed for hands-free communication in various environments. It is suitable for light industrial use, such as in warehouses or offices, but may not be ideal for very dusty or wet conditions. For harsh environments, consider models with an IP54 rating, such as the B650XT or S650XT.
What is the standby time of BlueParrott C400XT?
The BlueParrott C400XT has a standby time of 500 hours and a talk time of 24 hours. It features a bi-directional electret microphone and an LED power/pairing indicator. The C400XT has a wireless range of up to 300 feet and is designed for hands-free communication in vehicles. It does not have an IP rating, so it is best suited for dry environments. The headset supports Bluetooth connectivity and is compatible with a range of devices. For extended standby, the B650XT offers 600 hours.
Does the BlueParrott B350XTNEW support A2DP?
The BlueParrott B350XTNEW does not list Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) in its specifications. It is designed primarily for voice communication, with a bi-directional electret microphone and 24 hours of talk time. For audio streaming, consider the BlueParrott Automotive Headset (MPN 203582), which explicitly supports A2DP. The B350XTNEW has an IP54 rating and a 300 ft range. It is suitable for hands-free calling in automotive and industrial settings. Always check the specific model's datasheet for supported Bluetooth profiles.
