Jabra has launched the Evolve 75, a premium wireless headset with active noise cancellation technology. The headset is the newest device in the Evolve lineup, which has sold over 2.5 million units worldwide. The Evolve series is designed around the considerations of use in an office environment. The product has been certified by Skype for Businesses, Cisco, and other major leading unified communications platforms.

Holger Reisinger, SVP, Jabra Business Solutions said, "The premise behind the open plan office is to foster collaboration and improve communication among employees. But despite their many benefits, they have become breeding grounds for unsatisfactory labour output. Interruptions from colleagues and the noise generated in these environments are negatively impacting workers and contributing to lacklustre performance. Increasingly, knowledge workers are being forced into isolation to do their jobs. The Jabra Evolve 75 provides businesses with an alternative solution to support an open office philosophy that’s conducive to better performance."

The wireless range is 100 feet from laptops, and 33 feet from mobile phones. It is possible to pair two devices over bluetooth at the same time, which can be a laptop and a mobile phone. The battery life is rated at fifteen hours on a single charge. There is button on the ear cup to listen in without having to remove the headsets. One of the most innovative features offered is a do not disturb light, that alerts co-workers that you are concentrating at the moment.

The device is available with and without the charging station. With the optional charging station, the Evolve 75 is priced at $329. Without the charging station, the Evolve 75 is priced at $279.
