Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The Plantronics CS55 DECT 6.0 Digital Wireless Office Headset system combines the clarity of traditional corded technology with the mobility of wireless technology, a feature that allows employees to move around the office to wherever business takes them without interrupting or missing a call. With advanced 1.9GHz UPCS voice-dedicated wireless technology, the CS55 provides users with a wireless range of up to 300 feet. The unit's built-in battery (which charges in as little as three hours) provides a convenient 10 hours of wireless talk time. Other great features include one-touch control over call answer/end, volume, and mute functions, and a noise canceling microphone that filters out unwanted background noise. Included with the headset are interchangeable ear loops and a headband for customizable comfort. And because this system employs advanced DECT 6.0 wireless technology, it won't interfere with or be affected by local WiFi networks.

5.0 out of 5 stars The BEST wireless headset ever made, October 28, 2006

By	Prentice B. Bryant (Atlanta, GA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I recently purchased this item and have used it for about a week so far. I'm very impressed with the range and this headset's ability to shield itself from interference. There simply is no "buzzing" while downloading email to my BlackBerry while on the phone with this thing. I'm sure I'll be upgrading my PBX telephone system soon to suit this headset better; I refuse to use the handset lifter, since that seems so old-school for a headset so technologically superior than any other wireless headset offering on the market. It's important to note that a headset band, three different sizes of over-the-ear-loops and about four ear pads are included with this package.
The only bad thing about it, I can't seem to get the sound amplified as I like it loud. I think it was too much loud music played from my iPod that blew out my hearing, so the sound level should be perfectly accommodating to other folks.
In short, you will not be disappointed by the Plantronics CS55.

5.0 out of 5 stars Plantronics CS-55, October 18, 2007

By	M. Barnard (Shelton, WA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I first purchased the Plantronics Bluetooth wireless headset, but had very poor luck with it. My office is loaded with electronics and evidently the bluetooth set couldn't handle it-very poor reception. This headset, on the contrary, gives crystal clear reception inthe same environment. I use it for depositions and phone conferences which have to be clear. The headset is comfortable and has a much further range of useability than the bluetooth version. I am very pleased with this set.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Very cool but poor sound quality" - NOT!, January 9, 2008

By	gr8ful (St. Louis, MO) - See all my reviews

After ordering the CS55 but before receiving it, I read the negative review "Very cool but poor sound quality" and was concerned about what I was going to receive. No worries! Reading the instructions would resolve most of the reviewer's problem with the unit, moving the mouthpiece away from his/her face would take care of the rest!
