Plantronics has unveiled four new UC audio devices - the Blackwire 725, the company's first UC stereo headset with Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) for people who want to stay focused in noisy office environments; the Voyager Edge UC, the latest product in the Voyager family of Bluetooth headsets aimed at workers constantly on the road; the Calisto 610, a portable speakerphone for instant anywhere conferencing; and the Clarity 340, designed for those who face vision, hearing, or dexterity challenges.
"There's been increasing emphasis on the importance of a reliable, high-quality, seamless user experience when communicating and collaborating today, and rightly so," said Rich Costello, senior research analyst, unified communications, IDC. "The new Plantronics offerings not only address these important requirements, but also address the surrounding noise factor on both sides of the call."
Richard Rogers, head of E&A B2B marketing, Plantronics, said: "Everywhere is the new workplace. We know office noise is increasingly becoming a concern due to more open working environments that promote collaboration, but workplace noise isn't just a problem for those in the office.
"You can't always control your environment and you certainly can't control your caller's environment, so we help ensure workers have solutions they need to block out the noise, allowing them to have a high-quality communication experience wherever their workplace is."
