Voyager 5200 UC features WindSmart® technology, an exclusive
Plantronics innovation that incorporates six layers of technology
to detect noise caused by wind and responds accordingly.
Plantronics WindSmart technology combats a range of background
noises, from weather to traffic and surrounding conversations, so
calls come through clearly and without disruption. With up to seven
hours of talk time on a single charge, HD voice support over
wideband networks, innovative enhancements to speech quality, and a
design that blends style with careful attention to all-day
comfort, Voyager 5200 UC delivers the premium performance and
ease of use that are hallmarks of the Voyager family of
professional communication headsets.
“As businesses continue to embrace mobile collaboration, workers
across every industry and job description are looking for new
mobile solutions to explore what’s possible when ‘being in the
office’ doesn’t mean being tied to a desk,” said Tamara Lane,
Director of Global Product Marketing. “Tools such as Voyager 5200
UC give people the power to engage with work on their terms.”
Plantronics Voyager 5200 UC will be displayed in the Innovation
Awards Showcase, at Tech West at CES 2017, occurring January 5-8,
2017, in Las Vegas.
