Ideal for people with some degree of hearing loss, the Captioned Telephone (CapTel™)
works like any other telephone with one important addition: It displays
every word the caller says throughout the conversation. CapTel users can listen to the caller, and can also read the written captions in the CapTel's bright display window.
Advantages of CapTel
- Calls are made in a natural manner, simply dial the telephone number directly for the person you are calling
- Users enjoy natural telephone conversations, and can check the captions for added clarity.
- Everyone can use CapTel — simply turn off the captions feature to use it as a traditional telephone
- Captions appear nearly simultaneously with the spoken words
- CapTel includes an amplified handset and tone control for clarity
CapTel is currently only available in states that offer the CapTel Captioning Service as part of their Relay Service.
