Business Description

We are a leading worldwide designer, manufacturer and marketer of lightweight communications headsets, telephone headset systems and accessories for the business and consumer markets. In addition, we manufacture and market specialty telecommunication products for the hearing-impaired and other related products for people with special communications needs.

Plantronics headsets are communications tools, providing freedom to use your hands while staying “connected,” freedom to move around, and freedom from keyboards. We apply a variety of technologies to develop high quality products to meet the needs of our customers, whether it be for communications or personal entertainment. Plantronics headsets are widely used for cell phones, in contact centers, in the office, at home for computer applications such as Voice over Internet Protocol (“VoIP”) and gaming, as well as other specialty applications.

We sell our broad range of communications products into more than 70 countries through a worldwide network of distributors, original equipment manufacturers (“OEM’s”), wireless carriers, retailers and telephony service providers. We have well-developed distribution channels in North America, Europe and some of the Asian Pacific countries, where headset use is fairly widespread. Our distribution channels in other regions of the world are less mature and primarily serve the contact center markets in those regions.
