Plantronics CS50 Wireless Headset

Plantronics CS50 Wireless Headset

Plantronics introduced the first lightweight communications headset in 1962 and is recognized as the world leader in communications headsets. A publicly held company with approximately 2,700 employees, Plantronics is the leading provider of headsets to telephone companies and the business community worldwide. Plantronics headsets are also used widely in many Fortune 500 corporations and have been featured in numerous motion pictures and high-profile events, including Neil Armstrong’s historic “One small step for man” transmission from the moon in 1969. Plantronics, Inc., headquartered in Santa Cruz, California, was founded in 1961 and maintains offices in 20 countries. Plantronics products are sold and supported through a worldwide network of authorized Plantronics marketing partners.

The Plantronics CS50 Wireless Office Headset System brings the ultimate in mobility and sound quality for hands-free conversations to your phone. Totally wireless, the Plantronics CS50 headset gives you up to eight hours talk time and the wireless convenience to roam up to 300 feet while having secure conversations. The CS50 headset continuously charges in the cradle, and when in use, taking or ending a call is as simple as pressing a button. Compatible with typical office or PBX-based phones, the Plantronics CS50 headset can be worn on either ear or over-the-head for maximum, long wearing comfort.

The CS50 wireless mobility gives businesses an important competitive advantage. Most workspace is unoccupied for 60% of the workday, and every day more than 70% of business calls are missed (UNWIRED, 2003). This means that valuable time is lost exchanging voicemails. The CS50 wireless effectively reduces phone tag, letting users roam hundreds of feet from their desks and, with the addition of the optional HL10 handset lifter, answer and end calls remotely. In addition, because the CS50 Wireless headset is as intuitive and easy to use as answering the phone, the learning curve is minimal.

“The key to a useful CS50 wireless headset product is that it not only needs to be easy to use, but it needs to have the capability to answer and end calls even when you are well out of reach of the phone,” said Rob Enderle, Principal Analyst for the Enderle Group. “Plantronics’ CS50 Wireless headset not only meets that requirement better than any other device, I believe that it has the potential to be the most indispensable new telephony product in the modern executive’s office.”
