Stuff like AC sound will be suppressed, but voices not so much. On par or a bit better than previous Poly/Plantronics solutions I tried (Voyager 8200/6200). SoundGuard DIGITAL: Acoustic limiting for protection against sounds above 118 dBA. G616 anti-startle protection limits the noise level to 102 dBSPL; Time-Weighted Average prevents average daily noise exposure from exceeding 80 or 85 dBA (enabled by Plantronics Hub software) Wearing the headset makes you feel professional and that you're not wearing a cheaply made product. In the last few months I am on a hunt for perfect work from home headphones. As a part of this, I tried multiple solutions including using Plantronics Voyager 8200UC and Voyager 6200UC (good mic noise cancelling, but the sound was far too robotic / overprocessed on both), Poly 5220 (good mic, but weak mic noise cancellation), and using an external V-Moda boom mic connected to a Behringer USB audio mixer (amazing mic, but virtually no mic noise cancellation).

Perhaps your not in a call center but your working from home and there are kids, dogs, or other people being loud and causing you to lose focus on your work you need to concentrate on.

What's nice about the headband being made from silicon is that it is more sanitary and easy to clean, which is increasingly important these days. There are two variations of this headset. You can buy it in either a USB-A connector or a USB-C connection. It seems like the industry is moving towards all USB-C ports, which are smaller and can be plugged in upside down, which is nice.Microphone and Technology: Noise-canceling with Acoustic Fence technology (using two microphones) to Microsoft Teams Open Office certification levels
