SANTA CRUZ, Calif.,
Sept. 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/
-- Plantronics, Inc. ("Poly" – formerly Plantronics and
Polycom) (NYSE: PLT), a global communications company that powers
meaningful human connection and collaboration, today announced the
next generation of the company's lineup of popular Savi wireless
headsets. The enhanced Savi Office
and UC Series will offer more wearing styles, plus features to help
with working in noisy office environments.
"People will always need the ability to focus," said
Tamara Lane, director of product
marketing, personal solutions, of Poly. "Open offices facilitate
collaboration which is great for group problem-solving, but we all
have our moments when we need to focus independently. The challenge
is staying in the zone despite the buzz around you. We've updated
our Savi 8200 Office and UC Series headsets to better address these
needs."
Poly's expertise in enterprise-grade headset solutions enable
maximum productivity – whether you connect to your desk phone, PC,
mobile device or a combination of devices – regardless of the type
of work environment you are in. The new Savi 8200 wireless
headset models allow you to escape distraction with the following
features:
Close Conversation Limiting and ANC
The new Savi 8200
Office and UC Series includes a unique close conversation limiting
feature. That means that everyone on the call will hear only the
person talking into the headset, without interfering background
noise from neighboring co-workers. The Savi 8220 also includes
active noise canceling (ANC) to block out office noise. These
features help everyone on the call focus on the business at hand.
Poly is the first enterprise headset company to offer a
DECT™ headset with
ANC.
Office Mobility
Savi headsets are great for "corridor
warriors" who prefer (or need) to walk and talk while on a call.
The Savi 8200 family of devices enjoy a wireless office range of up
to 180 feet (55 meters). If users are in an unblocked line of sight
from the base, that range extends up to 590 feet (180 meters),
giving people the freedom to roam. The Savi 8245 adds
unlimited talk-time: users can charge a second battery that comes
with the purchase while the headset is in use. If the battery
starts to run low, users can do a "hot swap" during a call without
missing a beat.
Diverse Wearing Styles and Multiple-Device
Connectivity
With the new Savi line, businesses now have
access to a variety of wearing styles to suit different
preferences, including stereo (Savi 8220), mono (Savi 8210) or
convertible (Savi 8240/8245). The Savi 7200 Office Series includes
a newly designed over-the-head DECT headset for traditional and IP
desk phone use. The Savi 8200 Office base also features
multi-device connectivity and easy call merging with support for
desk phones, mobile devices and PCs. The Savi 8200 UC Series
includes a DECT mini USB adapter compatible with PCs/Macs or desk
phones supporting USB audio.
DECT – Enhanced Security
These new Savi headsets
continue to lead the industry in security. Poly remains the only
headset manufacturer to have its entire DECT portfolio certified
for security by the DECT Forum, the international
association of the wireless home and enterprise communication
industry.
Remote Management for IT
Adding the Plantronics
Manager Pro software-as-a-service (sold separately) to a purchase
allows IT teams to track every Savi 8200 Office or Savi 8200 UC
Series product to help streamline the management of headset
deployments, including device firmware updates and policy
compliance.
