Plantronics launches new wireless office headset

Johannesburg, 21 Jul 2003

Plantronics, the manufacturer of communications headsets, today launched the CS60 to the South African market - the first truly cordless hands-free headset aimed at the office market.

The CS60 offers the user the freedom to walk around the office, while still taking and making phone calls using the office phone system. The DECT technology guarantees excellent sound quality - with the user being able to make and receive calls up to 100 meters away from their desk, even on a different floor of the building.

The CS60 has a convertible headset, which can be worn in three ways, over-the-head, over-the-ear or Plantronics` unique behind-the-head style, depending on personal choice. The stylish and discreet earpiece weighs less than 28 grams, and nine hours talk time can be worn for the whole working day.

The CS60 connects quickly and easily to the office phone, and comes complete with its own charger, which also acts as a storage unit for the headset when it`s not in use. The charger also features Plantronics` unique Intellistand technology, which permits the user to answer and end a call simply by picking up and returning the headset to the base, just as they would a telephone handset. Additionally, an indicator light alerts that the headset is in use, ensuring colleagues can easily recognise when the user is on a call.

Neil Salton, Plantronics EMEA Marketing Manager, comments: "This totally wireless, extremely easy to use and very stylish CS60 is expected to become an essential office accessory in the South African market. It connects to the existing office phone systems, and offers all the benefits of a mobile phone; enabling office workers to walk to the photocopier, retrieve important files or even make coffee while still speaking on the phone."

The Plantronics CS60 cordless office hands-free headset is available in SA from selected Plantronics authorised value-added resellers or by calling 0800 220 202 or by visiting http://www.plantronics.co.za/. The CS60 has an estimated retail prices of approximately R4 500, excluding VAT.
