Why the Plantronics CS540 Wireless Headset is a business favourite
Plantronics CS540 cordless headset is the wireless headset replacement of the globally-recognised Plantronics CS55 and Plantronics CS50… it’s lighter, newer and carries more features than before, without anything too unusual or outstanding to take you by surprise. The CS540 is perfect in its simplicity and efficiency, perhaps leading it to the top of the shopping list for so many businesses.
The CS540 has been dubbed the winner of office headsets for UK businesses – so we decided to call on our experts to put it to the test and find it just what is leading its popularity, and what competitors are out there.
CS540 Headset Key Features
Firstly – this model prides itself on being lighter. Weighing in at just 21 grams, the CS540 features the lightest DECT headset on the market. According to American Doctor Duncan McDougall who tried to weigh the human soul, he believed it came in at exactly 21 grams. While we wonder where he got that from, perhaps it helps give you an idea of how light this headset is.
As well as it’s lightweight design, the CS540 is better in other ways too. With an increased range for maximum mobility, one-touch controls, energy efficient power management, simple plug-and-talk installation, it’s already proving itself as a top competitor.

The Plantronics CS540 headset also has premium wideband audio quality as well as wireless mobility, all with the same reliability for hands-free productivity that has made the CS family such a popular choice for so many years.
The CS540 also has the ability to conference up to three users on the same line, which, depending on your business needs, could be a deal breaker for an office headset.
As suspected, competing headsets for the Plantronics CS540 are aplenty – and they are giants competing giants.
