  • Publication number: 20150264461
    Abstract: A telecommunications device (1) comprises a base part (2), a cap part (4), a body part (3), a control panel (5), an upper light ring (9), a lower light ring (8), a plurality of sound microphones and a plurality of sound speakers. The cap part (4) is con cave in shape. The body part (3) is frusto-conical in shape and tapers outwardly away from the cap part (4) towards the base part (2). The body part (3) and the cap part (4) cover the sound microphones and the sound speakers. The control panel (5) is inclined relative to the plane of the support surface (6) and relative to the plane of the base part (2). The control panel (5) protrudes upwardly from the upper edge of the body part (3) over the concave cap part (4), and the control panel (5) protrudes downwardly from the lower edge of the body part (3).
