This headset is especially tailored for use with Microsoft Skype for Business, ensuring optimal performance and `unparalleled audio quality during calls.

One of the standout features of the Plantronics W445-M is its DECT technology, which provides a reliable and secure wireless connection, allowing users to roam freely up to a distance of 120 meters (approximately 400 feet) from their connected device.
