Working from home can be a challenge: maybe you have a spouse or roommates who also work from home; children at home doing on-line 
schooling; perhaps your pets are noisy. Whatever environment you have been working in, we know it can be a challenge to concentrate and focus on work tasks. That's why we suggest a high quality, professional headset designed specifically for workers who need to be on calls or in meetings using their computer, and require a distraction-free environment.
The Poly Blackwire 8225 meets these needs, and brings some hard-hitting technology to the table:
• Advanced Hybrid ANC using four digital microphones with three user selectable options (Off - Mid - High)
• Noise canceling microphone with Acoustic Fence technology (using 2 microphones) that meets Microsoft Teams Open Office-certification levels
• Hearing protection: SoundGuard DIGITAL: Acoustic limiting for protection against sounds above 118 dBA. G616 anti-startle protection limits the noise level to 102 dBSPL; Time-Weighted Average prevents average daily noise exposure from exceeding 80 or 85 dBA (enabled by Plantronics Hub software)
Other features we really like:
• 32mm speakers with large memory foam leatherette ear cushions
• Padded headband
• Two LED indicators on speaker housing show online/in a call status
• Call controller for volume maximum/minimum, mute on/mute off, answer/end call, noise canceling off/mid/high
• 7.2 ft cable
The included carry case protects your headset while you're transitioning from home to office, and everywhere in between.
There are four options to choose from, either USB-A or USB-C, and UC or Certified for Microsoft Teams variants. To decide which variant you need, read this blog post.
