Poly DA90 QD to Type-A USB Cable for HW500D and 700D Series

Poly DA90 QD to Type-A USB Cable for HW500D and 700D Series The Poly DA90 is an intelligent USB audio processor designed to connect compatible EncorePro 500 Digital and EncorePro 700 Digital Series headsets to a computer. It combines a six-pin digital Quick Disconnect connection with USB Type-A connectivity, in-line call controls, audio processing and headset identification features for telephone-intensive office and contact-centre environments. More Than a Standard Adapter Cable The DA90 is an active digital audio processor rather than a passive QD-to-USB lead. Built-in digital signal processing helps manage headset audio, noise, echo and acoustic exposure while providing convenient access to common softphone controls. Designed for EncorePro Digital Headsets: The DA90 uses Poly’s six-pin digital Quick Disconnect interface. It was developed specifically for EncorePro Digital headsets carrying a “D” suffix and should not be confused with adapters intended for standard four-pin analogue QD headsets. Headset Family Compatible Models EncorePro 500 Digital Series HW510D, HW520D, HW530D and HW540D EncorePro 700 Digital Series HW710D and HW720D QD Connector Requirement Poly six-pin digital Quick Disconnect Incompatible QD Type Standard four-pin analogue Poly or Plantronics Quick Disconnect Convenient In-Line Call Controls The in-line control module allows users to manage supported softphone calls without repeatedly returning to the application window. Availability of individual functions depends on the communications application and software configuration. Answer or end calls on supported softphone applications. Increase or decrease headset listening volume. Mute or unmute the connected headset microphone. Use visual indicators to check supported call and mute states. Digital Audio Processing Built-in audio processing supports clear voice communication in telephone-intensive working environments. The DA90 provides automatic gain control, transmit noise suppression, echo management and stereo audio support when used with a compatible binaural digital headset. Acoustic Protection for Contact Centres The DA90 includes advanced acoustic-limiting functions intended to help organisations manage workplace audio exposure. Confirmed features include daily noise-exposure support, G616 protection and anti-startle processing. Compliance remains dependent on the complete headset configuration, software settings and the organisation’s own workplace policies. Quick Disconnect Convenience The digital QD connection allows an agent to disconnect the headset from the lower cable without removing the headset. This can make it easier to move away from a workstation while leaving the DA90 connected to the computer. Device and Inventory Management When deployed with compatible Plantronics Hub and the separately available Plantronics Manager Pro service, the DA90 can report its digital serial number and information about the connected digital headset. This was designed to help IT teams monitor inventory, distribute firmware and manage supported settings across contact-centre deployments. Key Features: Connects compatible EncorePro Digital headsets to a computer through USB Type-A. Uses a six-pin digital Poly Quick Disconnect connector. Provides in-line answer, end-call, volume and microphone mute controls. Supports a voice bandwidth of 150 Hz to 6,800 Hz. Includes digital signal processing, echo management and transmit noise suppression. Supports stereo audio with compatible binaural digital headsets. Provides automatic gain control and advanced acoustic-limiting functions. Supports firmware updates and digital device identification through compatible management software. Designed for customer service centres, help desks, telesales and other telephone-intensive roles. Important Compatibility Information: The DA90 is not a universal Poly QD adapter. Its six-pin digital connector is different from the standard four-pin analogue QD connector used by many traditional Poly and Plantronics headsets. Use only with a confirmed compatible digital headset carrying the “D” model suffix. It is not compatible with the non-digital HW510, HW520, HW530, HW540, HW710 or HW720 models. It is not compatible with standard four-pin QD amplifiers or analogue training cables. Call-control integration can vary between softphone applications. Compatible Poly or Plantronics software may be required for answer, end-call and mute integration.
