Poly H31CD StarSet Headset – 8K780AA#AC3

Product Overview

The Poly H31CD StarSet (8K780AA#AC3) is an ultra-lightweight corded headset specifically designed for mission-critical communication environments including 911 dispatch centers, air traffic control, and military operations. Featuring a behind-the-ear design with a voice tube microphone, this headset delivers clear, natural voice tones while weighing less than half an ounce for all-day comfort.

The H31CD includes SoundGuard Plus compression technology for more intelligible speech and hearing protection, along with Call Clarity circuitry to boost voice clarity in demanding environments. The soft, pliable VersaTip ear tips conform to the natural contours of your ear while providing an acoustic seal to block out background noise. Six different sized ear tips are included for a near-custom fit.

Connectivity is provided via a 4-pin Quick Disconnect interface, allowing compatibility with audio processors such as the SHS 1890, SHS 2355, CA12CD, and M22. The Quick Disconnect feature lets you walk away from your workstation while still wearing the headset. This TAA-compliant headset meets rigorous standards required for government and aviation industry use.
