(BPT) - The coronavirus pandemic has altered life dramatically across the world. For millions of Americans, their new quarantine routine includes working remotely 100% of the time. Telecommuting makes work possible, but it's not without challenges. Fortunately, there are some simple solutions you can use to work effectively from home now and in the future.

Problem: Fuzzy conference calls with annoying delays

Solution: Anker PowerConf speaker for clear conference calls

Conference calls are now a daily essential. However, many people are quickly learning the speakerphone on their computer and cell phones are sub-par at best. The Anker PowerConf Bluetooth conference speaker makes those calls amazingly clear, with six microphones for 360 degrees of coverage. With its Smart Voice Enhancement feature, it makes your voice stand out, blocking background noises in the next room or outside (e.g., dogs barking, kids playing or a lawnmower next door). With its 24-hour playtime and charging port for your phone, you'll feel like a boss at every meeting.

Problem: Limited MacBook ports

Solution: PowerExpand Direct 7-in-2 Hub helps you maximize your MacBook

So much to do, but not enough ports to do it with?

The Thunderbolt 3-enabled USB-C port supports huge charging power up to 100W, data transfer up to an astounding 40 Gb/s, and media display at resolutions up to 5K.

Connect to two displays simultaneously, so you can stream content and work at maximum efficiency.

Problem: Annoying earbuds that drop audio

A single charge provides 7 hours of listening, while the charging case extends it to 28 hours of playtime. When the case is in need of a recharge, simply set it down on a wireless charger or use the included USB-C cable.
