For extremely mobile professionals, having to collaborate from very noisy environments such as train stations, coffee shops, airports, or even outside at a park, is an everyday occurrence. With these people in mind, Plantronics, a pioneer in audio and wearable technology, has recently announced two new communications devices developed for those who are constantly on‐the‐go and need to sound professional in even the most challenging situations: the Voyager 5200 and Voyager 5200 UC. These powerful Bluetooth devices feature WindSmart technology, an exclusive Plantronics innovation, which ensures extraordinary wind and noise reduction. Voyager 5200 is available today in the US, followed by Voyager 5200 UC in May. Both devices will be available worldwide by July 2016.
Plantronics exclusive WindSmart technology provides industry‐leading wind and noise reduction by incorporating six layers of technology to combat the entire noise ecosystem. The aerodynamic boom on the Voyager 5200 lets wind slide past without creating turbulence. The boom’s windscreen acts as the first layer of protection for the mics, and then each mic is further sheltered in a ‘wind box’. Four omni‐directional mics and a proprietary wind cancelling algorithm keeps the mics focused on the wearer’s voice and removes disruptive noise.
All‐day comfort and battery life were also top of mind when developing the Voyager 5200. Designed for stability and comfort on a wide range of ear shapes and sizes, it will fit 90 percent of people1. The device feels as comfortable on the last call of the day as it did on the first. Up to seven hours of talk time on a single charge will see you through from your morning coffee until you wrap up for the day — and with up to nine days in standby mode the headset will be ready when you need it. A multi‐purpose charging case2 serves as both a handy, graband‐go dock for recharging the headset, and a protective case that provides up to an additional 14 hours of talk time on the go.
Voyager 5200 UC includes a charging case and the BT600 Class 1 USB Bluetooth adapter, making multi‐device connectivity and communication from computers, tablets, video appliances and mobile phones easy and seamless whether you are in or out of the office.
Additional Voyager 5200 and Voyager 5200 UC technologies and benefits include:
Pricing and Availability
Voyager 5200 will be available at authorized Plantronics retailers, etailers, and carriers in the US immediately, and worldwide starting in July 2016. SRP for Voyager 5200 is Php5,599.

“Today’s mobile professionals face the unique challenge of staying connected while still communicating clearly and confidently from extremely challenging call environments, including crowds, traffic, coffee shops, and one of the most notorious of difficult call scenarios, a windy day,” said Jan Caldarella, senior category director of consumer solutions with Plantronics.
“Offering an all‐new approach to eliminating wind and background noise, Voyager 5200 lets you confidently focus on what you’re saying rather than where you are, while delivering the comfort, intelligence, multi‐device connectivity, and ease of use that are the hallmarks of our Voyager line of professional communication headsets.”
