SAN JOSE, Calif. (Nov. 15, 2012) – Staying connected on the slopes has never been easier than now thanks to Sena Technologies, Inc., a Bluetooth innovator in the outdoor activities market. Recently introduced for the snow sports industry, Sena’s SPH10S allows skiers and snowboarders to easily attach the multi-function headset/intercom to a variety of helmets and connect wirelessly via Bluetooth to their cell phones, GPS units, mp3 players and other Bluetooth enabled devices. The SPH10S also allows skiers and boarders to stay connected to their riding partners on the hill through intercom with up to three other people. The system utilizes the latest Bluetooth v3.0 and advanced digital processing technology to offer the best sound quality for both incoming and outgoing sound in its class. The easy-to-access jog dial and intuitive button operations make the SPH10S a perfect safety companion for snow sports.

With safety in mind in its design, the SPH10S utilizes Bluetooth v3.0+EDR and its firmware is fully upgradable at no charge anytime the company issues updates. Its capabilities include Bluetooth intercom up to 900 meters (980 yards/0.56 miles) in open terrain, multi-pair intercom for up to four people, four-way conference intercom, 10 hours talk time, 7 days stand-by time, Bluetooth stereo headset, hands free music playback control, crystal clear and natural sound quality, replacement ear flaps for Giro/Smith/Burton RED helmets, easy headset controls with the versatile Jog Dial, Bluetooth hands-free for Bluetooth enabled mobile phones, snow and water resistance, and consumer peace of mind thanks to the two-year warranty.
