Product description 

Adaptive Intelligence for optimal speech intelligibility  

The new Bluetooth office headset BW 900 features unique Adaptive 
Intelligence technology (patent pending) providing excellent sound qual-
ity. The BW 900 automatically compensates for ambient noise and “re-
members” the user's preferred settings. During conversation, these 
settings are adapted automatically in order to compensate for fluctua-
tions in ambient noise levels. 

Adaptive Intelligence also ensures that the interlocutor listening to the 
headset user can enjoy optimum speech clarity. 

ActiveGard™ for your well-being 

The headset is equipped with ActiveGard™, a unique technology pat-
ented by Sennheiser Communications. It uses sophisticated sound pres-
sure limitation systems to actively safeguard your hearing against 
acoustic shocks. A safe and comfortable sound level allows for stress-free 
work with the headset. 

Stylish and lightweight, with high wearing comfort 

Its discreet design is another plus of this headset. The fashionable and 
lightweight device is placed behind the user’s ear. As it is barely notice-
able, it is comfortable enough to wear it all day. It can be adjusted ergo-
nomically for a perfect fit on any ear. The BW 900 blue-and-charcoal 
design is unobtrusive. The small microphone boom impairs neither the 
user's freedom of movement nor his or her field of vision. 

More room to move 

BW 900 is a Bluetooth Class 1 device supporting the version 1.2 stan-
dard. It provides long-range operation and maximum compatibility. With 
the base station connected to your office phone, you can roam around 
the building up to a distance of 100 m. Additionally, you can move up to 
10 metres away from your Bluetooth-enabled devices such as mobile 
phones, PCs and PDAs. 

Optimum connectivity 

The Bluetooth interface allows the BW 900 to be connected to several 
devices. Whether you are using a mobile phone or other phone types 
such as smart phones or soft phones – the BW 900 is compatible with all 
types of speech-based Bluetooth devices. The user-friendly pushbutton
