Why choose a wireless business headset over a wired headset?
Wireless business headsets provide greater mobility, reduce cable clutter, and improve multitasking during calls. They allow professionals to move around freely in their workspace and still have a reliable connection, like a wired headset.
Advantages of Wireless Business Headsets
- Freedom to move during calls
- Reduced desk clutter
- Supports remote work and hybrid environments
- Multi-device pairing and seamless switching
Disadvantages of Wireless Business Headsets
- Wireless headsets require regular charging.
- High-density offices can cause audio dropouts or choppy sound
- Wireless Headsets cost more than wired ones
- Wireless signals can still be intercepted, even though they are encrypted.
What are the different types of wireless headset connectivity?
Wireless headsets connect using Bluetooth, DECT, USB dongles, or proprietary radio frequencies. The best option depends on your work environment, range requirements, and device compatibility.
Bluetooth
The most common connection type for wireless business headsets is Bluetooth. Bluetooth headsets operate on a 2.4 GHz frequency and are generally used for short-range wireless connections. They work with a range of devices such as smartphones, laptops, and tablets. Bluetooth devices can be paired with multiple devices, allowing you to connect to your phone and laptop simultaneously, for when you need to switch between them during the working day. A downside of Bluetooth connectivity is the limited range (~10m). This means that you must always have the device close enough to use it.
DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunication)
An alternative to Bluetooth connections is DECT, which stands for Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunication. This technology was originally used in cordless phones but is now optimised for business headsets. A major advantage of DECT over Bluetooth is the far more extended range. As an example, the EPOS IMPACT SDW 5066T has up to 180m of range in a clear line of sight. DECT headsets are also a lot more secure than other connection types as they have built-in encryption for confidential calls.
USB Dongle Connection
USB dongles can also be used to connect to a business headset wirelessly. They provide a direct link between the headset and the computer, combining the convenience of wireless with the reliability of a wired connection. Using a USB dongle also reduces pairing issues, which are common in Bluetooth headsets, and they are usually pre-configured, require no drivers, allowing for easy plug-and-play use in an office or at home.
How to choose the right wireless business headset
To choose the right wireless business headset, consider the environment you work in. Whether that be an office, at home or in a call centre. You must also decide which connection type is most suitable for you and the features that you may require.
Work Environment
The most suitable wireless headset for work will change depending on your work environment. Here is a list to show the features and connection types you should prioritise for each work environment:
Home Office
Prioritise noise cancellation to block out family/pet noise. Look for Bluetooth or USB dongle options for easy setup
Open plan office or call centre
DECT headsets with long range and interference immunity will be the best option, especially for industries that need high security, such as law enforcement or corporate. Boom microphones for better call clarity
Hybrid or mobile worker
A lightweight, Bluetooth model will be the best option. It will allow you to connect to your phone and PC whenever you need to switch between them with ease. Comfortable and ergonomic design for all-day comfort
Battery Life
Unlike wired headsets, wireless headsets have a limited battery life and must be charged to be used. The typical battery life of a Bluetooth headset is around 6-12 hours of talk time, and for DECT headsets, it can range from 10-14 hours of talk time. Most business headsets are charged via a USB-C charger or magnetic dock station.
Compatibility with Microsoft Teams and UC (Unified Communications)
You should make sure to choose an option that can be seamlessly integrated into your current communication software. Look for wireless headsets with specific certifications for Microsoft Teams, Zoom, or UC. These headsets can be plug-and-play and easily added to your workflow.
