Plantronics to enhance wireless freedom with suite of new products

New headsets deliver hands-free mobility and premium sound quality for office and mobile professionals
Johannesburg, 14 Mar 2003

Plantronics, the manufacturer of lightweight communications headsets, has announced that it will introduce several new wireless products later this year. Plantronics` range of wireless products will bring unprecedented freedom to office and mobile professionals worldwide.

Professionals are demanding tools that provide more effective and convenient ways to communicate. `Workstyles` and lifestyles are also rapidly depending on the freedom and mobility of wireless communications. Plantronics` next-generation of wireless products is designed to help accelerate the transition to this new way of work and life, making voice communications more natural and effective.

Plantronics` 2003 wireless headsets have been developed to facilitate the conversion from being `tied` to a desk or mobile phone to communicating hands-free, on the go. The range incorporates state-of-the-art design and sound quality that have become synonymous with the brand. They are also tailored to meet the specific needs of the user, be it in the office or on the go, and to enhance the communications experience. Plantronics` suite of wireless products will include:

* The M3000 Bluetooth Headset - A compact, stylish mobile phone headset with an industry-leading feature set that includes unparalleled sound quality and talk time. The M3000 is compatible with Bluetooth devices such as mobile phones and smart phones. Its noise-cancelling microphone provides superior sound quality and its intuitive controls make answering and ending calls effortless whether in the office or on the go.

* The CS50 and CS60 office headset systems - These wireless office telephone headset systems combine hands-free communication with wireless mobility, giving office professionals the ability to stay in touch as they move around their workplace. The lightweight wireless headset is self-contained and uses digital encryption to provide secure communications. The headset also features a noise-cancelling microphone for clear conversations and a convertible design so it can be worn over the ear, over the head or behind the head. Both wireless systems use digital technologies designed for their respective geographic markets. In addition, the new office systems have been designed as a platform that can accommodate other wireless technologies.

"The 2003 wireless products will set the stage for changing how we communicate at work and in life," says Ismail Desai, local spokesperson for Plantronics SA. "The new products are designed to become an integral part of the new wireless lifestyle and workstyle in the international and the South African market." The new Plantronics wireless headsets will be on display in Europe at the CeBIT tradeshow in Hannover, Germany, from 12 to 19 March at the Plantronics Stand E38 in Hall 27, and in the US at the CTIA tradeshow in New Orleans, Louisiana, from 17 to 19 March at Booth #3313.
