speakerphones
Communal audio communicators
Speakerphones are telephones with built-in speakers and microphones that allow hands-free conversation, broadcasting sound into a room rather than through a handheld receiver.
They're common in conference rooms for group calls: Let me put you on speakerphone so everyone can hear.
The term also describes the speakerphone function on mobile phones.
