HP Poly CS540A Wireless DECT Convertible Headset
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
HP Poly CS540A Wireless DECT Convertible Headset (8J8V4AA) - Local Warranty
Wireless Freedom for Desk-Phone Users
The HP Poly CS540A is a lightweight DECT wireless headset that connects to an office desk phone, letting staff take calls while they walk to a colleague, a printer or a filing cabinet. HP quotes a roaming range of up to 400 ft (about 120 m) from the base, and up to four headsets can be conferenced on a single base.
Three Ways to Wear It
The CS540A is a convertible design with three wearing options — over-the-ear, over-the-head and behind-the-head — and the box includes a headband plus a kit of eartips and earloops. At 21 g for the headset, it suits reception, front-desk and operations staff who wear a headset for much of the day.
Clear Audio and Hearing Protection
A noise-cancelling microphone and Digital Signal Processing keep voice natural, and the base lets you choose narrowband audio to extend talk time or wideband audio for high-definition voice. SoundGuard limits sounds to below 118 dBA to protect against acoustic shock and sudden audio spikes.
Remote Call Answering
With the optional HL10 Handset Lifter or an Electronic Hook Switch (EHS) cable, users can answer and end desk-phone calls away from the desk. HP’s adaptive power system also drops to low power when the headset is close to the base, conserving battery; HP rates talk time at up to 7 hours.
