Logitech Zone Wired Headset UC with Noise Canceling Mic
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Logitech Zone Wired Headset UC with Noise Canceling Mic (981-001097) - 2 Years Local Warranty
Multi-Platform Wired USB-C Business Headset for Zoom, Google Meet and Teams
The Logitech Zone Wired Headset UC (981-001097) is the universal-communications build of Logitech's wired business headset, certified for Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Google Meet, Google Voice and Tencent Meeting. It is the right pick for Singapore organisations that do not standardise on a single meeting platform — agencies, professional services firms and shared-service centres whose staff join whichever call their client is hosting.
Dual ECM Noise-Cancelling Microphones for Open-Plan Offices
Zone Wired UC pairs a uni-directional primary microphone with an omni-directional secondary microphone and runs both through Logitech's DSP noise-cancelling algorithm, which suppresses sound arriving from beyond roughly 60 cm. The 270° rotating boom can be worn on either ear and flips up to mute, giving users a reliable physical mute during long client calls.
40 mm Drivers, Memory-Foam Comfort, 211 g All Day
Each cup carries a 40 mm dynamic driver covering 20 Hz – 16 kHz in music mode, with memory-foam ear cushions on a Teflon-coated stainless steel headband. The result is a headset light enough at 211 g to stay on for a full working day. Note that Zone Wired is a passive-isolation design — active noise cancellation is a Zone Wired 2 feature.
Plug-and-Play Deployment with Sync Fleet Management
USB-C connection with a USB-A adapter in the box means Zone Wired UC deploys onto any corporate laptop or dock without drivers. Users personalise EQ and sidetone in Logi Tune; IT inventories, monitors and updates the entire fleet from Logitech Sync alongside the meeting rooms.

Frequently Asked Questions — Logitech Zone Wired
What is the difference between the MS and the UC version of Zone Wired?
Both versions share identical audio hardware and the same certification list. Logitech tunes the Microsoft variant for Teams and gives it a purple status LED, while the UC variant uses a red LED. If your organisation standardises on Microsoft Teams, take the MS version; if you run a mixed environment or lead with Zoom, Google Meet or Webex, the Logitech Zone Wired Headset MS (981-001096) is the natural choice.
Does the Logitech Zone Wired have active noise cancellation?
No. Zone Wired uses passive noise isolation from its memory-foam ear cushions, and its dual microphones are noise-cancelling on the transmit side so callers do not hear your office. If you need ANC on the listening side, the Logitech Zone Wired 2 for Business (981-001629) adds adaptive hybrid ANC over the same USB-C connection.
How does Zone Wired compare with the Logitech H570e?
The Logitech H570e (981-000574) is the value business headset — solid, USB-A, and widely deployed in contact centres. Zone Wired sits a tier above it with 40 mm drivers, dual ECM microphones with DSP noise cancellation, USB-C connectivity, Logi Tune tuning and Logitech Sync fleet management. For high-call-volume knowledge workers in open-plan offices, Zone Wired is the better fit.
Will it work with my laptop dock or an older USB-A machine?
Yes. The headset terminates in USB-C and a USB-A adapter is supplied in the box, so it connects to modern USB-C docks and to older USB-A laptops without additional purchases. It is a USB Audio and HID class device, so no driver installation is needed on Windows, macOS or ChromeOS.
Why does the Logitech datasheet show a different part number to my invoice?
Logitech numbers this headset differently by region. Its global and Americas datasheets often quote 981-000871 and 981-000876, whereas the units sold in this market carry 981-001097. The hardware and specification are the same — we have not “corrected” the number, we have listed the part number you will actually receive.
Can our IT team manage these headsets centrally?
Yes. Zone Wired is supported in Logitech Sync, so IT can see which headsets are deployed, check firmware levels and push updates from the same console used for Logitech meeting-room hardware. Individual users can adjust EQ and sidetone in Logi Tune on Windows or macOS.
Does SourceIT provide local warranty on the Logitech Zone Wired Headset UC?
Yes. Every Logitech Zone Wired Headset UC sold by SourceIT comes with 2 years local Singapore warranty and a GST invoice.
