Reuters sources have guaranteed that the peripheral producer is in converses to purchase Plantronics, best known for its Bluetooth sound and gaming headsets.

It’s not clear how close the organization may be to making it happen, however, the offer was allegedly over $2.2 billion – well over the $50 million it paid for Jaybird.

In the event that effective, an arrangement could be made open when one week from now. Sources are saying that some behind the negotiations are in place and solid news would come to the market in the middle of December. Till then, there is seen an increase in Logitech’s overall market share price. This shows investor confidence which could be further boosted by the acquisition.

Neither Logitech nor Plantronics is remarking on the potential arrangement to any media outlet.

While there’s no recognized purpose for the conceivable acquisition, Plantronics as of late gobbled up the videoconferencing organization Polycom.

The organization would viably get two major players at the cost of one, and could without much of a stretch expand on its current sound and webcam innovations. There’s likewise the subject of lessening rivalry. While there hasn’t been an immense measure of cover, this would give it one less organization to stress over as it merges its decent footing.
