Equip 245301 — plug-and-play stereo USB headset for calls and video meetings
USB-A plug and playFlexible boom micIn-line volume & mute2 m cable
The Equip 245301 is a wired stereo USB headset in black with a flexible boom microphone, in-line volume and mute control and a 2 m USB-A cable, made for home-office and office users who want a headset that works the moment it is plugged in.
USB plug-and-play means no drivers and no external power: connect it to a Windows PC or Mac and it appears as an audio device for VoIP, Microsoft Teams, Zoom or Skype calls, video conferencing and music. It is a good fit for laptops that have no 3.5 mm headset jack, for hot-desking and for hybrid work setups where the headset moves between computers.
What's in the Box
- Equip 245301 stereo USB headset
What It Means in Practice
- The in-line remote lets you change volume and mute the microphone or speaker without leaving your call window.
- The flexible microphone bends to the right angle in front of your mouth and stays there.
- The 2 m cable reaches a desktop tower under the desk as well as a laptop in front of you.
- At 120 g it is light enough to wear through a full day of calls.
What Will Not Work
- USB-A only: on a laptop with only USB-C ports you need a USB-C to USB-A adapter (not included).
- No 3.5 mm plug — it will not connect to phones, controllers or desk phones with analogue jacks.
- No wireless or Bluetooth.
- No noise cancellation is published for the microphone or ear cups.
