Sena SMH5 Bluetooth intercom system

Ride with clearer audio and simpler controls when you use the Sena SMH5 Bluetooth Motorcycle Scooter Communication System. This Bluetooth motorcycle and scooter communication headset helps you handle calls and music without running cables, while keeping control easy on the go. It also supports Universal Intercom(TM) so riders can communicate across different intercom brands, which is especially useful when you are coordinating with friends. 😊

With the built-in Bluetooth 5.1, the SMH5 is set up for everyday convenience like hands-free mobile phone conversations, stereo music playback from an MP3 player, and navigation voice prompts. You can manage key functions quickly using the control dial and an easy-to-use push button, so you are not fighting the interface while riding. The Advanced Noise Control(TM) feature adds wind noise reduction and an intelligent noise gate to suppress wind noise interference and background noise while you drive. 😃

Key features

The control dial and push button approach is designed for fast adjustments. You can use the dial to manage volume smoothly, then rely on the push button to access device functions without complicated steps. This matters when you want to keep your attention on the road while still changing settings or switching tasks.

Bluetooth 5.1 helps you stay connected for conversations and media. With the SMH5, you can take mobile phone conversations without cables, enjoy stereo music from your MP3 player, and hear navigation voice prompts when you need them. If your rides include mixed activities, this setup helps keep communication and audio within the same system.

Universal Intercom(TM) is a practical way to connect with other riders. It uses an industry standard approach intended to provide interfunctionality across all brands, including conference call style communication. In a group ride, shared communication can be more than one-on-one, and that makes coordination easier.

Another standout feature is shared music. The SMH5 supports listening to music together via two pairs of Sena intercoms, using both devices. That means you can ride and sync to the same audio experience, rather than everyone listening separately.

Finally, Advanced Noise Control(TM) targets the sounds that most often ruin clarity on the road. The system includes wind noise reduction plus an intelligent noise gate to help suppress wind noise interference and background noise while driving. Keep in mind that real-world results can vary with helmet fit, riding speed, and wind conditions, but the design intent is clear: reduce distractions and improve what you hear. 🏍️
