Logitech this week released a new wireless headset, the H820e, for UC platforms and PC softphones.

The headset is sold through Logitech channel partners.

The headset connects through a USB port to Windows PCs, Macs and Linux systems. It features a noise-cancelling microphone, acoustic echo cancellation and digital signal processing. It’s optimized for Microsoft Lync and is compatible with all major unified communication and softphone applications.

The H820e also has an in-call LED indicator light at the back of the microphone boom to prevent interruptions during calls and on-ear volume control buttons on both sides of the head band.

The Logitech H820e is built on the DECT standard and comes with a range of up to 300 feet.

Were looking to change the attitude that wireless headsets in the enterprise are an afterthought or a perk,” said Eric Kintz, senior vice president and general manager for Logitech for Business. “Wireless headsets are rapidly becoming the new normal for maximizing audio and video collaboration.”

The H820e should be available worldwide starting in May. Prices start at $179.99 for the mono version and $199.99 for the dual.
