Plantronics Blackwire Arrives...Finally. Now Reviewed!

Finally, Plantronics has launched a direct all in one USB headset. In the previous Plantronics .Audio line, their headsets for VoIP were either analog connections or headsets that had analog connections with a USB adapter.

Often the .Audio USB connectors would cause problems as the adapter would at times fail, resulting in problems where the headset would no longer work. Plantronics designed the .Audio headset to capture the market a time when PCs were being used for audio communications more frequently.

The other option was to connect a more expensive H series headset with a USB adapter. This method would work, but not take advantage of the wide decibel range utilized by VoIP technology. Newer Plantronics Wideband HW headsets have solved this problem and now offer an even higher end VoIP solution (more in a later blog).

With the improved reliability of VoIP and it's wider implementation by businesses for daily use, Plantronics determined it was now time to produce a lower cost reliable direct connect USB system for enterprise use.

The Plantronics Blackwire is designed strictly for the USB port with noise canceling and mute function, echo cancelling, call answer/end, flexible boom options for commercial implementation.

Now business class systems such as Avaya, Cisco, IBM and Microsoft have a headset option from Plantronics. Plantronics now can provide a wide selection of tools to businesses to match any of their headset needs including wireless solutions.

Plantronics is known for quality and reliability and has brought this quality design and performance to the Blackwire headset line. The Blackwire comes in a number of options such as the:
