The Sena 5S-10 is a Bluetooth motorcycle helmet intercom in a single pack. It supports two-way intercom between the wearer and one other rider or passenger, at up to 700 m in open terrain. Buildings, traffic, terrain and other obstructions can reduce the usable range. It uses Bluetooth intercom, not Mesh Intercom, and it needs a second compatible headset for conversation.
It connects over Bluetooth 5.1 to a compatible phone or motorcycle GPS for calls, stereo music and spoken directions. Stereo music can be shared with the intercom partner during a two-way conversation. Universal Intercom allows a two-way connection with one compatible non-Sena Bluetooth headset, and its performance and range depend on that headset. Audio Multitasking lets compatible foreground and background audio play together when enabled, and some HD functions are temporarily disabled while it is active.
The headset has 40 mm HD speakers, HD Intercom, HD Voice and Advanced Noise Control. An LCD screen shows status information. A Jog Dial and phone button can be used with riding gloves. Voice-command control was removed from the 5S-10, so earlier 5S documentation and videos may show features this version lacks. The Sena Motorcycles App provides settings, Smart Intercom Pairing and four EQ profiles: Balance, Bass Boost, Mid Boost and Treble Boost. Firmware can be updated with Sena Device Manager on a compatible Windows PC or Mac.
